mini-dash v0.2.0

mini-dash

mini-dash aims to replicate some of the features found in utility libraries such as lodash or underscore, but in a much more simplistic way.

what mini-dash offers

• All methods are in this package (no separate packages for individual methods)
• Zero dependencies
• Full source code for any method can be found under <method-name>/index.js
• Tests for any method can be found under <method-name>/test.js
• You can require each method using require('mini-dash/<method-name>') or import method from 'mini-dash/<method-name>'
• You can also require them using require('mini-dash').method or import { method } from 'mini-dash' which is not recommended if you are using webpack or any similar bundler
• No methods that are available on ES5 arrays will be reimplemented
• All methods guarantee not to mutate any of the given arguments
• All methods use for loops under the hood (no Array.filter, Array.map, etc).
• No methods do any sanity checks on the given input, if it expects an Array it will fail or return non-deterministic output with non-array inputs. This is by design, so make sure to validate your input.
• All methods are simple and not covering all the cases their lodash/underscore counterparts do, only the most common ones
• If something fails, you can debug all methods in 30 seconds, no convoluted execution paths

how to use it

installation

npm i -S mini-dash

usage

// import directly, recommended for bundlers like webpack (small footprint in generated code)
import find from 'mini-dash/find' 
import omit from 'mini-dash/omit'

// import all methods, not recommended for bundlers, ok for node
import miniDash from 'mini-dash' 

// import individual methods, not recommended for bundlers, ok for node
import { isString, groupBy } from 'mini-dash'
