Array 2.0.0

The array utility functions provide a variety of methods to manipulate and transform arrays and strings. They help simplify common operations such as splitting, flattening, shuffling, and finding differences between arrays, among others.

Installation

To install the array utility functions, use one of the following commands depending on your package manager:

bash
npm install @utilify/array
bash
yarn add @utilify/array
bash
pnpm add @utilify/array

After installation, you can import the functions into your project using ESM or CJS.

Usage

This library supports both the ESM and CJS module systems.

typescript
import { shuffle } from '@utilify/array';
javascript
const { shuffle } = require('@utilify/array');

function before<T>(arr: T[], index: number): T[];

Returns the elements of the array or string before the index index.

chunk

typescript
function chunk(str: string, size: number): string[];
function chunk<T>(arr: T[], size: number): T[][];

Splits the array or string into smaller chunks of size size.

compact

typescript
function compact<T>(arr: T[]): T[];

Removes "falsy" values (false, null, 0, "", undefined, NaN) from the array.

difference

typescript

function first<T>(arr: T[], count?: number): T[];

Returns the first count elements of the array or string.

Rotates the elements of the array offset positions.

sample

typescript
function sample(str: string): string;
function sample<T>(arr: T[]): T;

Returns a random element from the array or string.

sanitizeArr
