I donno why skinny arrow wasn't done (no lexical bind)
like CS. There was prolly a ton of discussion (as per usual)
@CrossEye You said you used compose but you thought of it with pipe. How would it be with pipe? In case it becomes easier to read for me.
Or that's how I think of them anyway. ;)
naming these things is hhaaaarrrdd grumble grumble
but betterish
converge -> modArgs and useWith -> modPerArg
so I created a
createModArgs
that takes a
resolver
the resolver accepts
arg, index, arguments (like value, index, array)
it's used to then create a function that passes the transforms args based on the resolves of the resolver
so for
useWith the resolver would be identity and for converge it would be function(value, index, args) { return args }
could be
baseModArgs(func, transforms, resolver)
W (foo)(x) == foo (x)(x)
Hi all, is there a function in Ramda that loops over the values of an array, and transforms them to keys of an object ie
['FY', 'Q3', 'Q2'] => {'FY': [ some filtered stuff here], 'Q3': [ 'some other stuff' ], 'Q2': [ ]} Use case is when getting some stuff from SQL and transforming into more json like structure
@jdalton I also like
converge as a name. I do think useWith would have to be renamed as it can mean anything. How about converge ("To come together from different directions") and disperse ("To strew or distribute widely")? The two words are related because they're kind of opposite, but they also both say something about what happens to the arguments. Besides, I think the subtle differences between the two are too great to name them after the same thing. I'm specifically talking about how the arity for the returned functions is chosen. For converge it will be the biggest arity of all given transformers, and for useWith it will be equal to the amount of given transformers.
Hi folks, I would like to use Ramda, but didn't find the right solution, do you have any ideas how can I do this? Thanks
// input
var input = {
apple: 3,
cucumber: 1
};
// desired output
[{
name: 'apple',
quantity: 3
}, {
name: 'cucumber',
quantity: 1
}];
function transformData(content) {
return reduce(function(output, key) {
output.push({
name: key,
quantity: content[key]
});
return output;
}, [], Object.keys(content));
}
@bling5630
var transformData = R.pipe(R.toPairs, R.map(R.zipObj(["name", "quantity"]))) - http://bit.ly/1QfI7WH
@jdalton The more I think about my naming of
disperse, the more I like it! Converge "converges" the arguments with every given transformer, and disperse "disperses" the arguments across all given transformers! :D .. Maybe I'm falling in love, and I should kill my darlings and such.. It's a good name right? :worried:
@Avaq Well, both
converge and useWith necessarily disperse first, converge dispersing the entirety of arguments to all transformers and useWith dispersing individual arguments to individual transformers. So it's a little unclear from that perspective, I think. It's still better than useWith to describe the behaviour at least.
@00Davo Ah, I think of the word "disperse" as kind of "being driven apart". Like a herd of sheep is "dispersed" when a dog runs into the center of the herd. From that point of view I can't think of "dispersing the entirety of arguments to all transformers", because it would involve cloning the sheep ;). But maybe my concept of the word is wrong, I'm no native speaker.
Perhaps working the word "spread" into
useWith's new name would be helpful, considering "spread" is used with similar meaning by Q (and other promise libraries?).
