@space48/json-pipe v0.4.16

@space48/json-pipe

A powerful TypeScript library for building JSON processing pipelines with async iterables. This library makes it easy to create efficient command-line programs that process JSON data through a series of transformations, with support for streaming and backpressure.

Features

• Process JSON data streams using async iterables
• Rich set of transformation operators:
  • map and mapAsync with configurable concurrency
  • flatMap and flatMapAsync for nested transformations
  • filter for conditional processing
  • distinct for deduplication
  • groupBy and groupWhile for data aggregation
  • batch for processing items in chunks
  • take and takeWhile for limiting output
  • reduce for aggregating results
• Built-in support for reading/writing JSON Lines format
• Composable transformations using pipe and compose
• Efficient streaming with backpressure handling
• Written in TypeScript with full type safety
• Node.js 8+ compatible

Installation

npm install @space48/json-pipe

Beta Versions

To install the latest beta version:

npm install @space48/json-pipe@beta

Beta versions are automatically published:

• When code is pushed to the develop branch (version format: x.y.z-beta.commit-hash)
• When a pull request is opened against master (version format: x.y.z-beta.pr.number)

Usage

Basic Example

import { pipe, readJsonLinesFrom, writeJsonLinesTo, map } from '@space48/json-pipe';

// Read JSON Lines from stdin, transform them, and write to stdout
await pipe(
  readJsonLinesFrom(process.stdin),
  map(data => {
    // Your transformation logic here
    return transformedData;
  }),
  writeJsonLinesTo(process.stdout)
);

Parallel Processing

import { pipe, mapAsync } from '@space48/json-pipe';

// Process items concurrently
const transform = mapAsync(
  { concurrency: 5 }, // Process 5 items at a time
  async item => {
    // Async transformation logic
    return processedItem;
  }
);

Data Aggregation

import { pipe, groupBy, batch } from '@space48/json-pipe';

// Group items by a key
const groupedTransform = pipe(
  input,
  groupBy(item => item.category),
  // Process in batches of 100
  batch(100)
);

API Reference

Core Functions

• pipe(...fns): Compose multiple transformations
• compose(...fns): Compose functions from right to left
• map(fn): Transform each item
• mapAsync(options, fn): Transform items asynchronously with concurrency control
• flatMap(fn): Transform and flatten results
• flatMapAsync(options, fn): Transform and flatten asynchronously
• filter(predicate): Filter items based on a predicate
• distinct(compare?): Remove duplicates
• groupBy(getKeyFn): Group items by key
• batch(size): Process items in batches
• take(n): Limit number of items
• reduce(fn, initialValue?): Aggregate items

I/O Functions

• readJsonLinesFrom(source): Read JSON Lines from a readable stream
• writeJsonLinesTo(destination): Write JSON Lines to a writable stream
• readLinesFrom(source): Read lines from a readable stream
