This +is O(1) (unlike `Object.keys(obj).length === 0`, which is O(N)). + +### hasKey(obj, key) + +Returns true if the given object has an enumerable, non-inherited property +called `key`. [For information on enumerability and ownership of properties, see +the MDN +documentation.](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Enumerability_and_ownership_of_properties) + +### forEachKey(obj, callback) + +Like Array.forEach, but iterates enumerable, owned properties of an object +rather than elements of an array. Equivalent to: + + for (var key in obj) { + if (Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call(obj, key)) { + callback(key, obj[key]); + } + } + + +### flattenObject(obj, depth) + +Flattens an object up to a given level of nesting, returning an array of arrays +of length "depth + 1", where the first "depth" elements correspond to flattened +columns and the last element contains the remaining object . For example: + + flattenObject({ + 'I': { + 'A': { + 'i': { + 'datum1': [ 1, 2 ], + 'datum2': [ 3, 4 ] + }, + 'ii': { + 'datum1': [ 3, 4 ] + } + }, + 'B': { + 'i': { + 'datum1': [ 5, 6 ] + }, + 'ii': { + 'datum1': [ 7, 8 ], + 'datum2': [ 3, 4 ], + }, + 'iii': { + } + } + }, + 'II': { + 'A': { + 'i': { + 'datum1': [ 1, 2 ], + 'datum2': [ 3, 4 ] + } + } + } + }, 3) + +becomes: + + [ + [ 'I', 'A', 'i', { 'datum1': [ 1, 2 ], 'datum2': [ 3, 4 ] } ], + [ 'I', 'A', 'ii', { 'datum1': [ 3, 4 ] } ], + [ 'I', 'B', 'i', { 'datum1': [ 5, 6 ] } ], + [ 'I', 'B', 'ii', { 'datum1': [ 7, 8 ], 'datum2': [ 3, 4 ] } ], + [ 'I', 'B', 'iii', {} ], + [ 'II', 'A', 'i', { 'datum1': [ 1, 2 ], 'datum2': [ 3, 4 ] } ] + ] + +This function is strict: "depth" must be a non-negative integer and "obj" must +be a non-null object with at least "depth" levels of nesting under all keys. + + +### flattenIter(obj, depth, func) + +This is similar to `flattenObject` except that instead of returning an array, +this function invokes `func(entry)` for each `entry` in the array that +`flattenObject` would return. `flattenIter(obj, depth, func)` is logically +equivalent to `flattenObject(obj, depth).forEach(func)`. Importantly, this +version never constructs the full array. Its memory usage is O(depth) rather +than O(n) (where `n` is the number of flattened elements). + +There's another difference between `flattenObject` and `flattenIter` that's +related to the special case where `depth === 0`. In this case, `flattenObject` +omits the array wrapping `obj` (which is regrettable). + + +### pluck(obj, key) + +Fetch nested property "key" from object "obj", traversing objects as needed. +For example, `pluck(obj, "foo.bar.baz")` is roughly equivalent to +`obj.foo.bar.baz`, except that: + +1. If traversal fails, the resulting value is undefined, and no error is + thrown. For example, `pluck({}, "foo.bar")` is just undefined. +2. If "obj" has property "key" directly (without traversing), the + corresponding property is returned. For example, + `pluck({ 'foo.bar': 1 }, 'foo.bar')` is 1, not undefined. This is also + true recursively, so `pluck({ 'a': { 'foo.bar': 1 } }, 'a.foo.bar')` is + also 1, not undefined. + + +### randElt(array) + +Returns an element from "array" selected uniformly at random. If "array" is +empty, throws an Error. + + +### startsWith(str, prefix) + +Returns true if the given string starts with the given prefix and false +otherwise. + + +### endsWith(str, suffix) + +Returns true if the given string ends with the given suffix and false +otherwise. + + +### parseInteger(str, options) + +Parses the contents of `str` (a string) as an integer. On success, the integer +value is returned (as a number). On failure, an error is **returned** describing +why parsing failed. + +By default, leading and trailing whitespace characters are not allowed, nor are +trailing characters that are not part of the numeric representation. This +behaviour can be toggled by using the options below. The empty string (`''`) is +not considered valid input. If the return value cannot be precisely represented +as a number (i.e., is smaller than `Number.MIN_SAFE_INTEGER` or larger than +`Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER`), an error is returned. Additionally, the string +`'-0'` will be parsed as the integer `0`, instead of as the IEEE floating point +value `-0`. + +This function accepts both upper and lowercase characters for digits, similar to +`parseInt()`, `Number()`, and [strtol(3C)](https://illumos.org/man/3C/strtol). + +The following may be specified in `options`: + +Option | Type | Default | Meaning +------------------ | ------- | ------- | --------------------------- +base | number | 10 | numeric base (radix) to use, in the range 2 to 36 +allowSign | boolean | true | whether to interpret any leading `+` (positive) and `-` (negative) characters +allowImprecise | boolean | false | whether to accept values that may have lost precision (past `MAX_SAFE_INTEGER` or below `MIN_SAFE_INTEGER`) +allowPrefix | boolean | false | whether to interpret the prefixes `0b` (base 2), `0o` (base 8), `0t` (base 10), or `0x` (base 16) +allowTrailing | boolean | false | whether to ignore trailing characters +trimWhitespace | boolean | false | whether to trim any leading or trailing whitespace/line terminators +leadingZeroIsOctal | boolean | false | whether a leading zero indicates octal + +Note that if `base` is unspecified, and `allowPrefix` or `leadingZeroIsOctal` +are, then the leading characters can change the default base from 10. If `base` +is explicitly specified and `allowPrefix` is true, then the prefix will only be +accepted if it matches the specified base. `base` and `leadingZeroIsOctal` +cannot be used together. + +**Context:** It's tricky to parse integers with JavaScript's built-in facilities +for several reasons: + +- `parseInt()` and `Number()` by default allow the base to be specified in the + input string by a prefix (e.g., `0x` for hex). +- `parseInt()` allows trailing nonnumeric characters. +- `Number(str)` returns 0 when `str` is the empty string (`''`). +- Both functions return incorrect values when the input string represents a + valid integer outside the range of integers that can be represented precisely. + Specifically, `parseInt('9007199254740993')` returns 9007199254740992. +- Both functions always accept `-` and `+` signs before the digit. +- Some older JavaScript engines always interpret a leading 0 as indicating + octal, which can be surprising when parsing input from users who expect a + leading zero to be insignificant. + +While each of these may be desirable in some contexts, there are also times when +none of them are wanted. `parseInteger()` grants greater control over what +input's permissible. + +### iso8601(date) + +Converts a Date object to an ISO8601 date string of the form +"YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS.sssZ". This format is not customizable. + + +### parseDateTime(str) + +Parses a date expressed as a string, as either a number of milliseconds since +the epoch or any string format that Date accepts, giving preference to the +former where these two sets overlap (e.g., strings containing small numbers). + + +### hrtimeDiff(timeA, timeB) + +Given two hrtime readings (as from Node's `process.hrtime()`), where timeA is +later than timeB, compute the difference and return that as an hrtime. It is +illegal to invoke this for a pair of times where timeB is newer than timeA. + +### hrtimeAdd(timeA, timeB) + +Add two hrtime intervals (as from Node's `process.hrtime()`), returning a new +hrtime interval array. This function does not modify either input argument. + + +### hrtimeAccum(timeA, timeB) + +Add two hrtime intervals (as from Node's `process.hrtime()`), storing the +result in `timeA`. This function overwrites (and returns) the first argument +passed in. + + +### hrtimeNanosec(timeA), hrtimeMicrosec(timeA), hrtimeMillisec(timeA) + +This suite of functions converts a hrtime interval (as from Node's +`process.hrtime()`) into a scalar number of nanoseconds, microseconds or +milliseconds. Results are truncated, as with `Math.floor()`. + + +### validateJsonObject(schema, object) + +Uses JSON validation (via JSV) to validate the given object against the given +schema. On success, returns null. On failure, *returns* (does not throw) a +useful Error object. + + +### extraProperties(object, allowed) + +Check an object for unexpected properties. Accepts the object to check, and an +array of allowed property name strings. If extra properties are detected, an +array of extra property names is returned. If no properties other than those +in the allowed list are present on the object, the returned array will be of +zero length. + +### mergeObjects(provided, overrides, defaults) + +Merge properties from objects "provided", "overrides", and "defaults". The +intended use case is for functions that accept named arguments in an "args" +object, but want to provide some default values and override other values. In +that case, "provided" is what the caller specified, "overrides" are what the +function wants to override, and "defaults" contains default values. + +The function starts with the values in "defaults", overrides them with the +values in "provided", and then overrides those with the values in "overrides". +For convenience, any of these objects may be falsey, in which case they will be +ignored. The input objects are never modified, but properties in the returned +object are not deep-copied. + +For example: + + mergeObjects(undefined, { 'objectMode': true }, { 'highWaterMark': 0 }) + +returns: + + { 'objectMode': true, 'highWaterMark': 0 } + +For another example: + + mergeObjects( + { 'highWaterMark': 16, 'objectMode': 7 }, /* from caller */ + { 'objectMode': true }, /* overrides */ + { 'highWaterMark': 0 }); /* default */ + +returns: + + { 'objectMode': true, 'highWaterMark': 16 } + + +# Contributing + +See separate [contribution guidelines](CONTRIBUTING.md). |
