Greater than less

Usage

You can use gtl.filter function to filter arrays by conditions like greaterThan, lessThanOrEqualTo etc.

Full list of rules is avalible in "Avaliable rules".

gtl.filter([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], { gt: 2, lte: 4 });

You can pass iterator function as second argument:

gtl.filter(
  [{ num : 1 }, { num : 2 }, { num : 3 }, { num : 4 }, { num : 5 }],
  { only: [1, 2] },
  function (obj) {
    return obj.num;
  }
);
// => [{ num : 1 }, { num : 2 }]

... or use iterator rules (in, or and and):

gtl.filter(
  [{ body: { text: 'but break' } }, { body: { text: 'my heart' } }, { body: { text: 'for I must' } }, { body: { text: 'hold my tongue' } }],
  { grep: 'my', in: 'body.text' }
);
// => [{ body: { text: 'my heart' } }, { body: { text: 'hold my tongue' } }]

API

gtl.filter()

Filter array of numbers with gt rule (alias to greaterThan)

gtl.filter([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], { gt: 3 });
// => [4, 5]

Filter array of strings

gtl.filter(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'], { lte: 'c' });
// => ['a', 'b', 'c']

Filter array of objects through iterator

gtl.filter(
  [{ num : 1 }, { num : 2 }, { num : 3 }, { num : 4 }, { num : 5 }],
  { gte: 4 },
  function (obj) {
    return obj.num;
  }
);
// => [{ num : 4 }, { num : 5 }]

Combine rules

You can use multiply rules to filter array:

gtl.filter([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], { gt: 2, lte: 4 });
// => [3, 4]

You also can use multiply iterator rules:

gtl.filter(
  [{ one: 1, two: 5, three: 4 }, { one: 4, two: 4, three: 9 }, { one: 4, two: -2, three: 3 }, { one: 5, two: 7, three: 1 }],
  { gte: 4, or: ['one', 'two'], and: 'three' }
);
// => [{ one: 1, two: 5, three: 4 }, { one: 4, two: 4, three: 9 }]

Avaliable rules

greaterThan (alias: gt)

gtl.filter([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], { gt: 3 });
// => [4, 5]

greaterThanOrEqualTo (aliases: gte, gteq)

gtl.filter([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], { gte: 3 });
// => [3, 4, 5]

lessThan (alias: lt)

gtl.filter([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], { lt: 3 });
// => [1, 2]

lessThanOrEqualTo (aliases: lte, lteq)

gtl.filter([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], { lte: 3 });
// => [1, 2, 3]

only

gtl.filter(
  [{ num : 1 }, { num : 2 }, { num : 3 }, { num : 4 }, { num : 5 }],
  { only: [1, 2] },
  function (obj) {
    return obj.num;
  }
);
// => [{ num : 1 }, { num : 2 }]

except (alias: not)

gtl.filter(
  [{ num : 1 }, { num : 2 }, { num : 3 }, { num : 4 }, { num : 5 }],
  { except: [1, 3] },
  function (obj) {
    return obj.num;
  }
);
// => [{ num : 2 }, { num : 4 }, { num : 5 }]

grep

Grep array by string:

gtl.filter(['but break', 'my heart', 'for I must', 'hold my tongue'], { grep: 'my' })
// => ['my heart', 'hold my tongue']

You also can use RegExp:

gtl.filter(['but break', 'my heart', 'for I must', 'hold my tongue'], { grep: /m./ })
// => ['my heart', 'for I must', 'hold my tongue']

fuzzy

You can find elements using fuzzy search:

gtl.filter(
  ['but break', 'my heart', 'for I must', 'hold my tongue'],
  fuzzy: 'ut'
);
// => ['but break', 'for I must']

Iterator rules

or (alias: in)

You can use in rule to set fields to search for:

gtl.filter(
  [{ body: { text: 'but break' } }, { body: { text: 'my heart' } }, { body: { text: 'for I must' } }, { body: { text: 'hold my tongue' } }],
  { grep: 'my', in: 'body.text' }
);
// => [{ body: { text: 'my heart' } }, { body: { text: 'hold my tongue' } }]

You also can specify multiply fields:

gtl.filter(
  [{ one: 1, two: 5 }, { one: 4, two: 4 }, { one: 4, two: -2 }, { one: 5, two: 7 }],
  { gt: 4, or: ['one', 'two'] }
);
// => [{ one: 1, two: 5 }, { one: 5, two: 7 }]

and

gtl.filter(
  [{ one: 1, two: 5 }, { one: 4, two: 4 }, { one: 4, two: -2 }, { one: 5, two: 7 }],
  { gte: 4, and: ['one', 'two'] }
);
// => [{ one: 4, two: 4 }, { one: 5, two: 7 }]

gtl.rules

gtl.rules contain all comparsion rules (lt, gt etc).

You can add your own comparator to gtl.rules:

gtl.rules.odd = function (num, rule) {
  var isOdd = num % 2 === 1
  if rule {
    return isOdd;
  } else {
    return !isOdd;
  }
};

... then:

gtl.filter([1, 2, 3, 4], odd: true)
// => [1, 3, 5]
gtl.filter([1, 2, 3, 4], odd: false)
// => [2, 4]

You can't use or, in and and rule name because it's reserved to build-ins iterator rules.

gtl.curry

You can make copy of gtl.filter with predefined options:

var findWilly = gtl.curry({ fuzzy: 'willy' });

findWilly(['storm we are ill', 'is we ill yo', 'trololo will']);
// => ['is we ill yo']

gtl.clone

You can create clone of gtl with custom set of rules by calling gtl.clone:

clonedGtl = gtl.clone();
