ember-composable-helpers

A modern fork of the original utility library.

template tag gts/gjs example:

// note that importing from this file includes *all* helpers
import { mapBy, pipe, mut } from '@nullvoxpopuli/ember-composable-helpers';

<template>
  {{#each (mapBy "fullName" users) as |fullName|}}
    <input type="text" value={{fullName}} onchange={{mut newName}}>
    <button {{on 'click' (pipe updateFullName saveUser) newName}}>
      Update and save {{fullName}} to {{newName}}
    </button>
  {{/each}}
</template>

If you only want one (or a few) utilit(y|ies), you may be interested in the individual exports instead:

import { mapBy } from '@nullvoxpopuli/ember-composable-helpers/helpers/map-by';

these are all the same paths as provided by the original ember-composable-helpers

class example:

{{#each (map-by "fullName" users) as |fullName|}}
  <input type="text" value={{fullName}} onchange={{action (mut newName)}}>
  <button {{on 'click' (pipe updateFullName saveUser) newName}}>
    Update and save {{fullName}} to {{newName}}
  </button>
{{/each}}

To install:

Ember 3.28+:

npm add @nullvoxpopuli/ember-composable-helpers

To use in an existing project, to replace the original ember-composable-helpers:

under webpack, configure an alias:

resolve: {
  alias: {
    "ember-composable-helpers": "@nullvoxpopuli/ember-composable-helpers",
  },
},

under classic builds, using ember-auto-import, the alias would be configured this way:

// ember-cli-build.js
autoImport: {
  alias: {
    "ember-composable-helpers": "@nullvoxpopuli/ember-composable-helpers",
  },
},

Note that under auto-import, all helpers will be included. Under embroider, when static helpers/components are turned on, only what you use will be in the build output.

For Assessing impact, the whole library is 38K (no min, no gzip or brotly)

❯ du --depth 1 --reverse --apparent-size --no-percent-bars --filter ".js$" ember-composable-helpers/dist/
  38K └─┬ dist
  26K   ├── helpers
 4.4K   ├── utils
 3.8K   ├── _app_
 2.5K   ├── index.js
1003B   └── -private

Running thruogh terser, the whole library becames 24K

❯ du --depth 1 --reverse --apparent-size --no-percent-bars --filter ".min$" ember-composable-helpers/dist/
 24K └─┬ dist
 15K   ├── helpers
3.5K   ├── _app_
2.6K   ├── utils
2.2K   ├── index.js.min
658B   └── -private

And then running through gzip (build -> min -> gzip)

❯ du --depth 1 --reverse --apparent-size --no-percent-bars --filter ".gz$" ember-composable-helpers/dist/
 17K └─┬ dist

And then running through brotly (build -> min -> brotli)

❯  du --depth 1 --reverse --apparent-size --no-percent-bars --filter ".br$" ember-composable-helpers/dist/

Compatibility

Argument ordering

This addon is built with composability in mind, and in order to faciliate that, the ordering of arguments is somewhat different then you might be used to.

For all non-unary helpers, the subject of the helper function will always be the last argument. This way the arguments are better readable if you compose together multiple helpers:

{{take 5 (sort-by "lastName" "firstName" (filter-by "active" array))}}

For action helpers, this will mean better currying semantics:

<button {{on 'click' (pipe (action "closePopover") (toggle "isExpanded")) this}}>
  {{if isExpanded "I am expanded" "I am not"}}
</button>

Available helpers

Action helpers

pipe

Pipes the return values of actions in a sequence of actions. This is useful to compose a pipeline of actions, so each action can do only one thing.

<button {{action (pipe (action 'addToCart') (action 'purchase') (action 'redirectToThankYouPage')) item}}>
  1-Click Buy
</button>

The pipe helper is Promise-aware, meaning that if any action in the pipeline returns a Promise, its return value will be piped into the next action. If the Promise rejects, the rest of the pipeline will be aborted.

The pipe helper can also be used directly as a closure action (using pipe-action) when being passed into a Component, which provides an elegant syntax for composing actions:

{{foo-bar
    addAndSquare=(pipe-action (action "add") (action "square"))
    multiplyAndSquare=(pipe-action (action "multiply") (action "square"))
}}
{{! foo-bar/template.hbs }}
<button {{action addAndSquare 2 4}}>Add and Square</button>
<button {{action multiplyAndSquare 2 4}}>Multiply and Square</button>

⬆️️ back to top

call

Calls the given function with arguments

{{#each (call (fn this.callMeWith @daysInMonth) as |week|}}
  {{#each week as |day|}}
    {{day}}
  {{/each}}
{{/each}}

⬆️ back to top

compute

Calls an action as a template helper.

The square of 4 is {{compute (action "square") 4}}

⬆️ back to top

toggle

Toggles a boolean value.

<button {{action (toggle "isExpanded" this)}}>
  {{if isExpanded "I am expanded" "I am not"}}
</button>

toggle can also be used directly as a closure action using toggle-action:

{{foo-bar
    toggleIsExpanded=(toggle-action "isExpanded" this)
    toggleIsSelected=(toggle-action "isSelected" this)
}}
{{! foo-bar/template.hbs }}
<button {{action toggleIsExpanded}}>Open / Close</button>
<button {{action toggleIsSelected}}>Select / Deselect</button>

toggle also accepts optional values to rotate through:

<button {{action (toggle "currentName" this "foo" "bar" "baz")}}>
  {{currentName}}
</button>

⬆️ back to top

noop

Returns an empty function.

<div {{on "mouseenter" (if @isLoading (noop) @sendTrackingEvent))}}>Some content</div>

⬆️ back to top

optional

Allows for the passed in action to not exist.

<button {{action (optional handleClick)}}>Click Me</button>

⬆️ back to top

queue

Like pipe, this helper runs actions in a sequence (from left-to-right). The difference is that this helper passes the original arguments to each action, not the result of the previous action in the sequence.

If one of the actions in the sequence returns a promise, then it will wait for that promise to resolve before calling the next action in the sequence. If a promise is rejected it will stop the sequence and no further actions will be called.

<button {{action (queue (action "backupData") (action "unsafeOperation") (action "restoreBackup"))}} />

Array helpers

map

Maps a callback on an array.

{{#each (map (action "getName") users) as |fullName|}}
  {{fullName}}
{{/each}}

map-by

Maps an array on a property.

{{#each (map-by "fullName" users) as |fullName|}}
  {{fullName}}
{{/each}}

sort-by

Sort an array by given properties.

{{#each (sort-by "lastName" "firstName" users) as |user|}}
  {{user.lastName}}, {{user.firstName}}
{{/each}}

You can append :desc to properties to sort in reverse order.

{{#each (sort-by "age:desc" users) as |user|}}
    {{user.firstName}} {{user.lastName}} ({{user.age}})
{{/each}}

You can also pass a method as the first argument:

{{#each (sort-by (action "mySortAction") users) as |user|}}
  {{user.firstName}} {{user.lastName}} ({{user.age}})
{{/each}}

⬆️ back to top

filter

Filters an array by a callback.

{{#each (filter (action "isActive") users) as |user|}}
  {{user.name}} is active!
{{/each}}

filter-by

Filters an array by a property.

{{#each (filter-by "isActive" true users) as |user|}}
  {{user.name}} is active!
{{/each}}

If you omit the second argument it will test if the property is truthy.

{{#each (filter-by "address" users) as |user|}}
  {{user.name}} has an address specified!
{{/each}}

You can also pass an action as second argument:

{{#each (filter-by "age" (action "olderThan" 18) users) as |user|}}
  {{user.name}} is older than eighteen!
{{/each}}

⬆️ back to top

reject-by

The inverse of filter by.

{{#each (reject-by "isActive" true users) as |user|}}
  {{user.name}} is not active!
{{/each}}

If you omit the third argument it will test if the property is falsey.

{{#each (reject-by "address" users) as |user|}}
  {{user.name}} does not have an address specified!
{{/each}}

You can also pass an action as third argument:

{{#each (reject-by "age" (action "youngerThan" 18) users) as |user|}}
  {{user.name}} is older than eighteen!
{{/each}}

⬆️ back to top

find-by

Returns the first entry matching the given value.

{{#let (find-by 'name' lookupName people) as |person|}}
  {{#if person}}
    {{#link-to 'person' person}}
      Click here to see {{person.name}}'s details
    {{/link-to}}
  {{/if}}
{{/let}}

    </button>
  {{/each}}
  <a {{action (invoke "save" people)}}>Save</a>
</div>

⬆️ back to top

union

  {{cartItem.price}} x {{cartItem.quantity}} for {{cartItem.name}}
{{/each}}

⬆️ back to top

take

Returns the first n entries of a given array.

reduce

Reduce an array to a value.

{{reduce (action "sum") 0 (array 1 2 3)}}

The last argument is initial value. If you omit it, undefined will be used.

repeat

Repeats n times. This can be useful for making an n-length arbitrary list for iterating upon (you can think of this form as a times helper, a la Ruby's 5.times { ... }):

{{#each (repeat 3) as |empty|}}
  I will be rendered 3 times
{{/each}}

You can also give it a value to repeat:

{{#each (repeat 3 "Adam") as |name|}}
  {{name}}
{{/each}}

{{/each}}

It can also be set to inclusive:

{{#each (range 10 20 true) as |number|}}
  {{! `number` will go from 10 to 20}}
{{/each}}

And works with a negative range:

{{#each (range 20 10) as |number|}}
  {{! `number` will go from 20 to 11}}
{{/each}}
