nullable-util

utility functions with Nullable

usage example

const util = require('nullable-util')

const collection = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

util.first(collection)
// => Nullable.of(1)

util.first(collection, x => x > 3)
// => Nullable.of(4)

util.last(collection)
// => Nullable.of(5)

util.last(collection, x => x < 3)
// => Nullable.of(2)


const users = {
  1: {
    name: 'A'
    admin: false
  },
  2: {
    name: 'B',
    admin: true
  }
}

util.first(users)
// => Nullable.of(['1', {name: 'A', admin: false}])
// This returns a [key, value] pair as a 2-element Array.
// Note, Object property names are always strings.

util.first(users, user => user.admin)
// => Nullable.of(['2', {name: 'B', admin: true}])

first and last operate on Arrays and Array-likes (NodeList, etc.), plain Objects, ES6 collections (Set and Map, but not WeakSet or WeakMap which are not iterable).

first can also operate on generators, but not last since generators may be infinite.
