View Source Iteraptor (iteraptor v1.14.0)

Iteraptor makes complicated nested structures (currently Maps, Lists and Keywords) iteration easier.

usage

Usage

Iterating, Mapping, Reducing

Flattening

Filtering

  • Iteraptor.filter/3 to filter the structure according to the value returned from each iteration (true to leave the element, false to discard.)

Link to this section Summary

Types

The function that might be passed to all the traversion functions.

Functions

Iterates the given nested structure, calling the callback provided on each value. The key returned is an array of all the parent keys (and/or indices in a case of an array.)

Filters the deeply nested term, optionally calling the function on filtered entries.

Build a nested structure out of a flatmap given, decomposing the names of keys and handling lists carefully.

Produces a term ready-to-use with JSON interchange. Stringifies all keys and converts keywords to maps.

Maps the given nested structure, calling the callback provided on each value. The key returned is a concatenated names of all the parent keys (and/or indices in a case of an array.)

Iteration with mapping and reducing. The function of arity 2, called back on each iteration with {k, v} pair and an accumulator is accepted.

@type option() ::
  {:keys, :reverse}
  | {:yield, :all | :none | :maps | :lists}
  | {:structs, :values | :keep}
@type options() :: [option()]
@type traverse_fun() :: ({any(), any()} -> any()) | (any(), any() -> any())

The function that might be passed to all the traversion functions.

When it’s a function or arity 1, it receives {key, value} tuple when the key is the list of keys down the nesting levels.

When its arity is 2, it receives key and value as separated arguments.

each(input, fun, opts \\ [])

View Source
@spec each(Access.t(), traverse_fun(), options()) :: Access.t()

Iterates the given nested structure, calling the callback provided on each value. The key returned is an array of all the parent keys (and/or indices in a case of an array.)

The return value is self.

parameters

Parameters

  • input: nested map/list/keyword to be walked through.
  • fun: callback to be called on each {key, value} pair, where key is an array or deeply nested keys; e.g. on %{a: {b: 42}} will be called once, with tuple {[:a, :b], 42};
  • opts: the options to be passed to the iteration
    • yield: [:all | :none | :maps | :lists] what to yield; default: :all for yielding values only

    • keys: [:reverse] reverse keys list to ease pattern matching; default: nil
    • structs: [:values | :keep] how to handle structs; default: :values for treating them as maps. When :values, the nested structs are considered leaves and returned to the iterator instead of being iterated through; when :keep it returns a struct back after iteration
