A bunch of common utilities in pure Typescript to deal with primitives, strings, urls, objects, collections, dates etc.
The package has been created to make my life easier with the requirements of Sveltin based projects and its packages. Anyhow, Sveltin is definitely not mandatory and you could find something fitting your needs.
npm install @sveltinio/ts-utils
# or
pnpm add @sveltinio/ts-utils
# or
yarn add @sveltinio/ts-utilsThe package supports ES Module and Common JS formats.
import { isString, isRegExp } from '@sveltinio/ts-utils/is';
import { contains, uniq } from '@sveltinio/ts-utils/collections';
import { isEmpty, camelToKebab } from '@sveltinio/ts-utils';
// ...const { hasProperty, hasPropertyValue } = require('@sveltinio/ts-utils/objects')Except the functions returning a boolean value, the others mainly return a Result type that represents either success (Ok) or failure (Err) from neverthrow for a type-safe error handling.
// from neverthrow docs
type Result<T, E>
= Ok<T, E> // contains a success value of type T
| Err<T, E> // contains a failure value of type EThe ways to access the return value from a Result type may vary based on the use-case and your programming style. Below some samples for quick reference:
import { toKebabCase } from '@sveltinio/ts-utils/strings';
toKebabCase('hello world').value;
// => "hello-world"
const result1 = toKebabCase('hello world');
if (result1.isOk()) {
console.log(result1.value); // => "hello-world"
}
const result2 = toKebabCase('hello world').match(
(str) => str, // => "hello-world"
(err) => `${err.message}`
);
console.log(result2);
toKebabCase(2)
.map((str) => console.log(str))
.mapErr((err) => {
throw new Error(err.message); // => Error: [strings.toKebabCase] Expected string value as input
});Refer to the neverthrow documentation for the full picture.

Some utilities to deal with path strings. The functions do not interface with the real file system but they are used to extract some information from the given path string. It means not ensuring e.g. a file exists or a folder is a real folder on the disk. For that, simply use what already exists.
Some look useless at first glance but they are not for Sveltin project requirements.
