todo

this document contains todos and ideas for asx.

return the top n items

one pass, no sorting, selection algorithm

asx.array.top(iterable, n:int):Array

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_algorithm

slicing

asx.array.take(iterable:Object, n:int):Array asx.array.drop(iterable:Object, n:int):Array // http://www.cs.chalmers.se/Cs/Grundutb/Kurser/d1pt/d1pta/ListDoc/take.html // http://www.cs.chalmers.se/Cs/Grundutb/Kurser/d1pt/d1pta/ListDoc/drop.html asx.array.split(iterable:Object, n:int):Array // http://www.cs.chalmers.se/Cs/Grundutb/Kurser/d1pt/d1pta/ListDoc/splitAt.html

// group adjacent equal items // group([hello]), h,e,ll,o // map(group([hello]), head) h,e,l,o asx.array.group(iterable:Object):Array

// all those at the start of the array that match the predicate asx.array.span(iterable:Object, predicate:Function):Array // all those at the start of the array until the first match of the predicate asx.array.break(iterable:Object, predicate:Function):Array

asx.array.unionBy() asx.array.intersectionBy() asx.array.differenceBy()

ordering

asx.array.reverse(iterable:Object):Array asx.array.sort(iterable, compareFunction:Function=null):Array

repeating

// http://www.cs.chalmers.se/Cs/Grundutb/Kurser/d1pt/d1pta/ListDoc/repeat.html asx.array.repeat(value:Object, n:int):Array

// http://www.cs.chalmers.se/Cs/Grundutb/Kurser/d1pt/d1pta/ListDoc/cycle.html asx.array.cycle(iterable:Object, n:int):Array

// http://www.cs.chalmers.se/Cs/Grundutb/Kurser/d1pt/d1pta/ListDoc/iterate.html asx.array.iterate(value:Object, n:int, transformer:Function):Array

zip

asx.array.zip(...iterables):Array asx.array.zipWith(...iterables, zipFunction:Function):Array asx.array.unzip(iterable:Object):Array

fn

asx.fn.returning(o:Object, fn:Function):Object {
    fn(o);
    return o;
}

asx.fn.seq([items], [select, _, odd], [inject, 0, _, add], [map, _, square])
seq(range(1, 100), select(_, odd), inject(0, _, add), map(_, square))

bah!

(value).into(fn);

asx.external

  • create a nicer API for registering and calling external functions

asx.string.substitute

  • named placeholders, eg: substitute("named {marker}", { marker: "thingy" });

asx.object.pluck

  • eg: pluck(object, "chain.to.follow.withSimpleMethods().too", defaultShouldAnyLinkBeNull=null)

asx.object.range

  • see specs/asx/RangeSpecs.as for scattered thoughts about implementation

strings

asx.string.lines(value:String):Array asx.string.words(value:String):Array asx.string.chars(value:String):Array

asx.string.unlines(lines:Object):String asx.string.unwords(words:Object):String

asx.string.isAlpha(value:String):Boolean asx.string.isDigit(value:String):Boolean asx.string.isWhitespace(value:String):Boolean asx.string.isAlphaNumeric(value:String):Boolean asx.string.isAscii(value:String):Boolean asx.string.isLowerCase(value:String):Boolean asx.string.isUpperCase(value:String):Boolean

asx.string.urlFriendly(value:String):String asx.string.isIDNA(value:String):String asx.string.toIDNA(value:String):String asx.string.fromIDNA(value:String):String

asx.xml.sax::

stream-friendly parser

var serializer:SaxSerializer = new SaxSerializer();
serializer.registerClass(Media);
serializer.unmarshall("<media>
    <id>42</id>
    <encodingProfiles>
        <encodingProfile></encodingProfile>
    </encodingProfiles>
</media>");

serializer.startElement("*", "media")
serializer.startElement("*", "id")
serializer.text("*", "42")
serializer.endElement("*", "id")
serializer.startElement("*", "encodingProfiles")
serializer.startElement("*", "encodingProfile")
serializer.endElement("*", "encodingProfile")
serializer.endElement("*", "encodingProfiles")
serializer.endElement("*", "media")

asx.system.pp

  • pretty prints given object(s) to asx.system.out

  • prints the objects a AS3 code

  • optional succinct output, without indentation?

  • eg: pp({ field: value, field2: value })

    { field: value, field2: value }

  • eg: pp([array, [nested, array]])

    [ array, [ nested, array ] ]

asx.system.out asx.system.err

  • output streams, wrap trace() to allow forwarding to sockets, localconnection, etc.
