bifurcateIn
Split an object's own and inherited property values into two groups according to a predicate function.
Usage
var bifurcateIn = require( '@stdlib/utils/bifurcate-in' );
bifurcateIn( obj, [options,] predicate )
Splits an object's own and inherited property values into two groups according to a predicate
function, which specifies which group a value in the input object
belongs to. If a predicate
function returns a truthy value, a value belongs to the first group; otherwise, a value belongs to the second group.
function predicate( v ) {
return v[ 0 ] === 'b';
}
function Foo() {
this.a = 'beep';
this.b = 'boop';
return this;
}
Foo.prototype = Object.create( null );
Foo.prototype.c = 'foo';
Foo.prototype.d = 'bar';
var obj = new Foo();
var out = bifurcateIn( obj, predicate );
// e.g., returns [ [ 'beep', 'boop', 'bar' ], [ 'foo' ] ]
A predicate
function is provided two arguments:
- value: object value.
- key: object index.
function predicate( v, k ) {
console.log( '%s: %s', k, v );
return v[ 0 ] === 'b';
}
function Foo() {
this.a = 'beep';
this.b = 'boop';
return this;
}
Foo.prototype = Object.create( null );
Foo.prototype.c = 'foo';
Foo.prototype.d = 'bar';
var obj = new Foo();
var out = bifurcateIn( obj, predicate );
// e.g., returns [ [ 'beep', 'boop', 'bar' ], [ 'foo' ] ]
The function accepts the following options
:
- returns: specifies the output format. If the option equals
'values'
, the function outputs values. If the option equals'keys'
, the function outputs keys. If the option equals'*'
, the function outputs both keys and values. Default:'values'
. - thisArg: execution context.
By default, the function returns object values. To return object keys, set the returns
option to 'keys'
.
function predicate( v ) {
return v[ 0 ] === 'b';
}
function Foo() {
this.a = 'beep';
this.b = 'boop';
return this;
}
Foo.prototype = Object.create( null );
Foo.prototype.c = 'foo';
Foo.prototype.d = 'bar';
var obj = new Foo();
var opts = {
'returns': 'keys'
};
var out = bifurcateIn( obj, opts, predicate );
// e.g., returns [ [ 'a', 'b', 'd' ], [ 'c' ] ]
To return key-value pairs, set the returns
option to '*'
.
function predicate( v ) {
return v[ 0 ] === 'b';
}
function Foo() {
this.a = 'beep';
this.b = 'boop';
return this;
}
Foo.prototype = Object.create( null );
Foo.prototype.c = 'foo';
Foo.prototype.d = 'bar';
var obj = new Foo();
var opts = {
'returns': '*'
};
var out = bifurcateIn( obj, opts, predicate );
// e.g., returns [ [ [ 'a', 'beep' ], [ 'b', 'boop ], [ 'd', 'bar' ] ], [ [ 'c', 'foo' ] ] ]
To set the predicate
execution context, provide a thisArg
.
function predicate( v ) {
this.count += 1;
return v[ 0 ] === 'b';
}
function Foo() {
this.a = 'beep';
this.b = 'boop';
return this;
}
Foo.prototype = Object.create( null );
Foo.prototype.c = 'foo';
Foo.prototype.d = 'bar';
var obj = new Foo();
var context = {
'count': 0
};
var opts = {
'thisArg': context
};
var out = bifurcateIn( obj, opts, predicate );
// e.g., returns [ [ 'beep', 'boop', 'bar' ], [ 'foo' ] ]
console.log( context.count );
// => 4
Notes
- Iteration order is not guaranteed, as
object
key enumeration is not specified according to the ECMAScript specification. In practice, however, most engines use insertion order to sort anobject
's keys, thus allowing for deterministic iteration. - Because iteration order is not guaranteed, result order is not guaranteed.
- The function determines the list of own and inherited enumerable properties before invoking the provided function. Hence, any modifications made to the input
object
after calling this function (such as adding and removing properties) will not affect the list of visited properties.
Examples
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random/base/randu' );
var fromCodePoint = require( '@stdlib/string/from-code-point' );
var bifurcateIn = require( '@stdlib/utils/bifurcate-in' );
var opts;
var key;
var obj;
var out;
var i;
function Foo() {
var key;
var i;
for ( i = 0; i < 50; i++ ) {
key = fromCodePoint( 147+i );
this[ key ] = randu();
}
return this;
}
Foo.prototype = Object.create( null );
for ( i = 0; i < 50; i++ ) {
key = fromCodePoint( 97+i );
Foo.prototype[ key ] = randu();
}
// Generate a random object:
obj = new Foo();
// Compute the groups...
function predicate( v ) {
return ( v < 0.5 );
}
opts = {
'returns': '*'
};
out = bifurcateIn( obj, opts, predicate );
console.log( out );
