• Node.js v14 or higher

Getting Started

This package is available in the Node Package Repository and can be easily installed with npm or yarn.

$ npm i frequency-set
# or
$ yarn add frequency-set

Usage example

const FrequencySet = require("frequency-set");

const MySet = new FrequencySet(["foo", "bar"]);
MySet.add("foo");
MySet.add("foo");
MySet.add("bar");

console.log([...MySet.entries()]); // [["foo", 3], ["bar", 2]]

const clone = new FrequencySet(MySet);
console.log(clone);

API

FrequencySet implements exactly the same interfaces as an ES6 Set. Except for the @@ Iteration Symbol and the entries(). Instead of returning the unique value as key and value, FrequencySet return the unique value as key and the count as value.

const mySet = new FrequencySet(["foo", "foo", "bar"]);

for (const [uniqueValue, count] of mySet) {
    console.log([uniqueValue, count]); // [foo, 2] and [bar, 1]
}

Also the add method has been extended with a additional count argument witch take a number.

const mySet = new FrequencySet().add("foo", 10);

console.log(mySet.toJSON()); // ["foo", 10]

toJSON()

FrequencySet implement a custom toJSON() method which will allow an automatic transformation into JSON.

const mySet = new FrequencySet(["foo", "foo", "bar"]);

console.log(mySet.toJSON()); // [foo, 2] and [bar, 1];

The toJSON method does not take into account functions and objects.
