Usage
documentation
JsonFunction •Json-Function provides a lot of useful functions especially for your json data. It contains the methods you need too much to eliminate unnecessary code repetition.
You can use the Json-Function methods separately, but it is possible to use them all together. You can also chain it.
Chaining
import JsonFunction from "json-function";
const result = JsonFunction
.where({ completed: false })
.select(["title", "completed"])
.orderBy("title", "DESC")
.limit(2)
.get(data);
or Basic
import JsonFunction from "json-function";
JsonFunction.where({ completed: false });
JsonFunction.select(["title", "completed"]);
JsonFunction.orderBy("title", "DESC");
JsonFunction.limit(2);
const result = JsonFunction.get(data);
or create a query and use it at any time.
const queryTwoIncompleteTasks = JsonFunction
.where({ completed: false })
.select(["title", "completed"])
.limit(2)
.getQuery();
Query usage
JsonFunction.setQuery(queryTwoIncompleteTasks).get(data);
// or
JsonFunction.get(data, { query: queryTwoIncompleteTasks });
Methods
Instead of an entire "class", you can use only the methods you need.
documentation
innerJoin •The "innerJoin" function is used to join two arrays.
import { innerJoin } from "json-function";
innerJoin(data, data2, "id", "userId");
documentation
schema •The "Schema" function is a great way to reconfigure your json data and make it your own.
import { schema } from "json-function";
schema(data, {
book: {
id: "id",
title: "title"
},
firstname: "user.firstname",
lastname: "user.lastname"
});
Use "callback" for advanced conversions.
schema(data, (sc) => ({
id: "id",
fullName: sc.join("user.firstname", "user.lastname")
}));
Custom separator
schema(data, (sc) => ({
id: "id",
fullName: sc.join("user.firstname", "user.lastname", { separator: "_" })
}));
Use your own special function.
schema(data, (sc) => ({
id: "id",
fullName: sc.custom(
(firstname, lastname) => `${firstname.toUpperCase()} ${lastname.toUpperCase()}`,
"user.firstname",
"user.lastname"
),
}))
Example
schema(data, (sc) => ({
id: "id",
createdAt: sc.custom(
(createdAt) => moment(createdAt).format("DD/MM/YYYY"),
"createdAt",
),
}))
documentation • samples
where •The "Where" function provides a comfortable method for filtering a json data.
import { where } from "json-function";
// Single
// (completed === false)
where(data, { completed: false });
// Multiple (or)
// (completed === false || userId === 2)
where(data, [{ completed: false }, { userId: 2 }]);
// Deep
// (address.city === "New York")
where(data, { "address.city": "New York" }, { deep: true });
Use "callback" for advanced filter.
// id <= 3
where(data, (wh) => ({
id: wh.lte(3),
}));
Other wh methods.
wh.lte(3) // value <= 3
wh.lt(3) // value < 3
wh.gte(3) // value >= 3
wh.gt(3) // value > 3
wh.between(3,5) // value >= 3 && value <= 5
wh.eq("3") // value == 3
wh.ne("3") // value != 3
wh.in("test") // value.includes("test")
wh.nin("test") // !value.includes("test")
wh.oneOf([1, 2, 3]) // [1, 2, 3].includes(value)
documentation
select •The "Select" function is a practical method where you only get the desired fields of a json data.
import { select } from "json-function";
// Single
select(data, "title");
// Multiple
select(data, ["title", "completed"]);
documentation
limit •"Limit" is used to get a limited number of elements from a json data. Almost javascript works like slice() but it is much easier and clearer.
import { limit } from "json-function";
// limit
limit(data, 2);
// limit and Start
limit(data, 2, 2);
documentation
orderBy •With the "orderBy" function you can reorder the data in your json array.
import { orderBy } from "json-function";
orderBy(data, "title", "DESC");
orderBy(data, "user.firstname", "DESC", { deep: true });
documentation
search •Search over fields of objects.
import { search } from "json-function";
// Syntax: search(data: Object[], key: any, fields: string | string[], options?);
// single field
search(data, "key", "description");
// multiple field
search(data, "key", ["user.firstName", "description"]);
// case sensitive
search(data, "key", "description", { caseSensitive: false });
documentation
toArray •Converts objects into meaningful sequences.
import { toArray } from "json-function";
// default key "uid"
toArray(data);
// custom key
toArray(data, { key: "_id_" });
documentation
transform •JSON converts the snake_case keys in your data to camelCase.
import { transform } from "json-function";
transform(data);
