Array

compact

Removes falsey values from an array.

Use Array.filter() to filter out falsey values (false, null, 0, "", undefined, and NaN).

const compact = arr => arr.filter(Boolean);

compact([0, 1, false, 2, '', 3, 'a', 'e' * 23, NaN, 's', 34]); // [ 1, 2, 3, 'a', 's', 34 ]

difference

Returns the difference between two arrays.

Create a Set from b, then use Array.filter() on a to only keep values not contained in b.

const difference = (a, b) => {
  const s = new Set(b);
  return a.filter(x => !s.has(x));
};

difference([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 4]); // [3]

union

Returns every element that exists in any of the two arrays once.

Create a Set with all values of a and b and convert to an array.

const union = (a, b) => Array.from(new Set([...a, ...b]));

union([1, 2, 3], [4, 3, 2]); // [1,2,3,4]

const users = [{ name: 'fred', age: 48 }, { name: 'barney', age: 36 }, { name: 'fred', age: 40 }];
orderBy(users, ['name', 'age'], ['asc', 'desc']); // [{name: 'barney', age: 36}, {name: 'fred', age: 48}, {name: 'fred', age: 40}]
orderBy(users, ['name', 'age']); // [{name: 'barney', age: 36}, {name: 'fred', age: 40}, {name: 'fred', age: 48}]

String

capitalizeEveryWord

Capitalizes the first letter of every word in a string.

Use String.replace() to match the first character of each word and String.toUpperCase() to capitalize it.

const capitalizeEveryWord = str => str.replace(/\b[a-z]/g, char => char.toUpperCase());

capitalizeEveryWord('hello world!'); // 'Hello World!'

Back to top

reverseString

Reverses a string.

Use the spread operator (...) and Array.reverse() to reverse the order of the characters in the string. Combine characters to get a string using String.join('').

const reverseString = str => [...str].reverse().join('');

reverseString('foobar'); // 'raboof'

Back to top

truncateString

Truncates a string up to a specified length.

Determine if the string's length is greater than num. Return the string truncated to the desired length, with '...' appended to the end or the original string.

const truncateString = (str, num) =>
  str.length > num ? str.slice(0, num > 3 ? num - 3 : num) + '...' : str;

truncateString('boomerang', 7); // 'boom...'
