poly-select v1.0.0

poly-select

Picks given keys and associated values from an object or array

Motivation

When working data transformation pipelines, it is often needed to be able to filter out unused data leaving only a few pieces for downstream processing.

This tool is effectively a shorthand version of:

   filter((x, key) => selectedKeys.indexOf(key) >= 0)

Features

• Works with objects and arrays
• Automatically curried

Installation

npm install poly-select

Testing

npm test

Usage

var select = require('poly-select');

var object = {
  a: 100,
  b: 200,
  c: 'blah, blah'
};

var array = [
  100,
  200,
  'blah, blah'
];

// Complete application
console.log(select(['a', 'c'], object)); // => { a: 100, c: 'blah, blah' }
console.log(select([0, 2], array)); // => [100, 'blah, blah']

// Partial application
var selectB = select('b');
console.log(selectB(object)); // => { b: 200 }

var select1 = select(1);
console.log(select1(array)); // => [200]
