ES6 Iterator library for applying multiple transformations to a collection in a single iteration.
|
||||
|
||||
## [API Documentation](http://iterare.surge.sh/)
|
||||
|
||||
## Motivation
|
||||
|
||||
Ever wanted to iterate over ES6 collections like `Map` or `Set` with `Array`-built-ins like `map()`, `filter()`, `reduce()`?
|
||||
Lets say you have a large `Set` of URIs and want to get a `Set` back that contains file paths from all `file://` URIs.
|
||||
|
||||
The loop solution is very clumsy and not very functional:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const uris = new Set(['file:///foo.txt', 'http:///npmjs.com', 'file:///bar/baz.txt'])
|
||||
const paths = new Set()
|
||||
for (const uri of uris) {
|
||||
if (!uri.startsWith('file://')) {
|
||||
continue
|
||||
}
|
||||
const path = uri.substr('file:///'.length)
|
||||
paths.add(path)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Much more readable is converting the `Set` to an array, using its methods and then converting back:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
new Set(
|
||||
Array.from(uris)
|
||||
.filter(uri => uri.startsWith('file://'))
|
||||
.map(uri => uri.substr('file:///'.length))
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
But there is a problem: Instead of iterating once, you iterate 4 times (one time for converting, one time for filtering, one time for mapping, one time for converting back).
|
||||
For a large Set with thousands of elements, this has significant overhead.
|
||||
|
||||
Other libraries like RxJS or plain NodeJS streams would support these kinds of "pipelines" without multiple iterations, but they work only asynchronously.
|
||||
|
||||
With this library you can use many methods you know and love from `Array` and lodash while only iterating once - thanks to the ES6 [iterator protocol](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Iteration_protocols):
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
import iterate from 'iterare'
|
||||
|
||||
iterate(uris)
|
||||
.filter(uri => uri.startsWith('file://'))
|
||||
.map(uri => uri.substr('file:///'.length))
|
||||
.toSet()
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`iterate` accepts any kind of Iterator or Iterable (arrays, collections, generators, ...) and returns a new Iterator object that can be passed to any Iterable-accepting function (collection constructors, `Array.from()`, `for of`, ...).
|
||||
Only when you call a method like `toSet()`, `reduce()` or pass it to a `for of` loop will each value get pulled through the pipeline, and only once.
|
||||
|
||||
This library is essentially
|
||||
|
||||
- RxJS, but fully synchronous
|
||||
- lodash, but with first-class support for ES6 collections.
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance
|
||||
|
||||
Benchmarks based on the examples above:
|
||||
|
||||
### [`map` + `filter`](https://github.com/felixfbecker/iterare/blob/master/src/benchmarks/map_filter_set.ts)
|
||||
|
||||
Simulate iterating over a very lage Set of strings and applying a filter and a map on it.
|
||||
|
||||
| Method | ops/sec |
|
||||
| ------------------ | -----------------------------------: |
|
||||
| Loop | 466 ops/sec ±1.31% (84 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| **iterare** | 397 ops/sec ±2.01% (81 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| RxJS | 339 ops/sec ±0.77% (83 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| Array method chain | 257 ops/sec ±1.73% (79 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| Lodash | 268 ops/sec ±0.84% (81 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| IxJS (ES6) | 216 ops/sec ±0.81% (81 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| IxJS (ES5) | 141 ops/sec ±0.87% (77 runs sampled) |
|
||||
|
||||
### [`filter` + `take`](https://github.com/felixfbecker/iterare/blob/master/src/benchmarks/filter_take_set.ts)
|
||||
|
||||
Simulate iterating over a very lage Set of strings and applying a filter on it, then taking only the first 1000 elements.
|
||||
A smart implementations should only apply the filter predicate to the first 5 elements.
|
||||
|
||||
| Method | ops/sec |
|
||||
| ------------------ | -----------------------------------------: |
|
||||
| Loop | 3,059,466 ops/sec ±0.75% (88 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| **iterare** | 963,257 ops/sec ±0.68% (89 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| IxJS (ES6) | 424,488 ops/sec ±0.63% (89 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| RxJS | 168,853 ops/sec ±2.58% (86 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| IxJS (ES5) | 107,961 ops/sec ±1.88% (78 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| Lodash | 41.71 ops/sec ±1.15% (54 runs sampled) |
|
||||
| Array method chain | 24.74 ops/sec ±3.69% (45 runs sampled) |
|
||||
|
||||
## Lazy Evaluation
|
||||
|
||||
Going a step further, if you only care about a specific number of elements in the end, only these elements will run through the pipeline:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
iterate(collection)
|
||||
.filter(uri => uri.startsWith('file://'))
|
||||
.take(5)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In this example, the filter predicate is called only until 5 elements have been found.
|
||||
The alternative with an array would call it for every element in the collection:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
Array.from(collection)
|
||||
.filter(uri => uri.startsWith('file://'))
|
||||
.slice(0, 5)
|
||||
```
