xinq v0.1.2

Xinq - lightweight JS prototype extensions

Xinq gives you minimal impact javascript extensions similar to those seen in the C# System.Linq namespace. Using Xinq can enable you to sort through data sets and filter specific results. Statements can be deferred in the same way as Linq and the syntax is similar.

Installation

npm install xinq --save

Require

var xinq = require('xinq').init(); // must call init

Usage Examples

Checking to see if a string contains another string LIVE DEMO

var xinq = require("xinq").init(); // must call init
var teststring = "this string allows testing of contains";
var result = teststring.contains("allows");

Selecting results of an array that match a predicate LIVE DEMO

var xinq = require("xinq").init(); // must call init
var stuff = ["cat", "dog", "mouse", "horse", "dragon", "house" ];
var result = stuff.select((n) => n.contains("ouse"));

Selecting and filtering results of an object array where predicate is satisfied. LIVE DEMO

var xinq = require("xinq").init(); // must call init
var staff = 
[
    {   name: "alan",     age: 21,    remote: false   },
    {   name: "allen",    age: 23,    remote: true    },
    {   name: "ruby",     age: 44,    remote: true    },
    {   name: "chris",    age: 58,    remote: true    }
]

var result = staff
             .select((p) => p.remote)
             .where((p) => p.age >= 24);
