Type Parameters

  • T

Hierarchy (View Summary)

Constructors

constructor: any

Properties

size: number

The number of items in this List.

Methods

  • Returns this

    Map#asImmutable

  • An alternative API for withMutations()

    Note: Not all methods can be safely used on a mutable collection or within withMutations! Check the documentation for each method to see if it allows being used in withMutations.

    Returns this

    Map#asMutable

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type containing all entries except the last.

    Returns this

  • Returns a new List with 0 size and no values in constant time.

    List([ 1, 2, 3, 4 ]).clear()
    // List []

    Note: clear can be used in withMutations.

    Returns List<T>

  • Returns a new List with other values or collections concatenated to this one.

    Note: concat can be used in withMutations.

    Type Parameters

    • C

    Parameters

    • ...valuesOrCollections: (C | Iterable<C, any, any>)[]

    Returns List<T | C>

    merge

  • Parameters

    • value: T

    Returns boolean

  • Returns the size of this Collection.

    Regardless of if this Collection can describe its size lazily (some Seqs cannot), this method will always return the correct size. E.g. it evaluates a lazy Seq if necessary.

    If predicate is provided, then this returns the count of entries in the Collection for which the predicate returns true.

    Returns number

  • Parameters

    • predicate: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => boolean
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns number

  • Returns a Seq.Keyed of counts, grouped by the return value of the grouper function.

    Note: This is not a lazy operation.

    Type Parameters

    • G

    Parameters

    • grouper: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => G
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns Map<G, number>

  • Returns a new List which excludes this index and with a size 1 less than this List. Values at indices above index are shifted down by 1 to fill the position.

    This is synonymous with list.splice(index, 1).

    index may be a negative number, which indexes back from the end of the List. v.delete(-1) deletes the last item in the List.

    Note: delete cannot be safely used in IE8

    List([ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 ]).delete(0);
    // List [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ]

    Since delete() re-indexes values, it produces a complete copy, which has O(N) complexity.

    Note: delete cannot be used in withMutations.

    Parameters

    • index: number

    Returns List<T>

    remove

  • Returns a new List having removed the value at this keyPath. If any keys in keyPath do not exist, no change will occur.

    const { List } = require('immutable')
    const list = List([ 0, 1, 2, List([ 3, 4 ])])
    list.deleteIn([3, 0]);
    // List [ 0, 1, 2, List [ 4 ] ]

    Plain JavaScript Object or Arrays may be nested within an Immutable.js Collection, and removeIn() can update those values as well, treating them immutably by creating new copies of those values with the changes applied.

    const { List } = require('immutable')
    const list = List([ 0, 1, 2, { plain: 'object' }])
    list.removeIn([3, 'plain']);
    // List([ 0, 1, 2, {}])

    Note: deleteIn cannot be safely used in withMutations.

    Parameters

    • keyPath: Iterable<unknown>

    Returns this

    removeIn

  • An iterator of this Collection's entries as [ key, value ] tuples.

    Note: this will return an ES6 iterator which does not support Immutable.js sequence algorithms. Use entrySeq instead, if this is what you want.

    Returns IterableIterator<[number, T]>

  • True if this and the other Collection have value equality, as defined by Immutable.is().

    Note: This is equivalent to Immutable.is(this, other), but provided to allow for chained expressions.

    Parameters

    • other: unknown

    Returns boolean

  • True if predicate returns true for all entries in the Collection.

    Parameters

    • predicate: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => boolean
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns boolean

  • Returns a new List with only the values for which the predicate function returns true.

    Note: filter() always returns a new instance, even if it results in not filtering out any values.

    Type Parameters

    • F

    Parameters

    • predicate: (value: T, index: number, iter: this) => value is F
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns List<F>

  • Returns a new Collection with only the values for which the predicate function returns true.

    Note: filter() always returns a new instance, even if it results in not filtering out any values.

    • predicate: (value: T, index: number, iter: this) => unknown
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns this

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type with only the entries for which the predicate function returns false.

    const { Map } = require('immutable')
    Map({ a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 4}).filterNot(x => x % 2 === 0)
    // Map { "a": 1, "c": 3 }

    Note: filterNot() always returns a new instance, even if it results in not filtering out any values.

    • Optionalcontext: unknown
    • OptionalnotSetValue: T

    Returns undefined | [number, T]

    Parameters

    • OptionalnotSetValue: NSV

    Returns T | NSV

  • Flat-maps the List, returning a new List.

    Similar to list.map(...).flatten(true).

    Type Parameters

    • M

    Parameters

    • mapper: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => Iterable<M>
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns List<M>

  • Flattens nested Collections.

    Will deeply flatten the Collection by default, returning a Collection of the same type, but a depth can be provided in the form of a number or boolean (where true means to shallowly flatten one level). A depth of 0 (or shallow: false) will deeply flatten.

    Flattens only others Collection, not Arrays or Objects.

    Note: flatten(true) operates on Collection<unknown, Collection<K, V>> and returns Collection<K, V>

    Parameters

    • Optionaldepth: number

    Returns Collection<unknown, unknown>

  • Parameters

    • Optionalshallow: boolean

    Returns Collection<unknown, unknown>

  • The sideEffect is executed for every entry in the Collection.

    Unlike Array#forEach, if any call of sideEffect returns false, the iteration will stop. Returns the number of entries iterated (including the last iteration which returned false).

    Parameters

    • sideEffect: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => unknown
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns number

  • If this is a collection of [key, value] entry tuples, it will return a Seq.Keyed of those entries.

    Returns Keyed<unknown, unknown>

  • Returns the value associated with the provided index, or notSetValue if the index is beyond the bounds of the Collection.

    index may be a negative number, which indexes back from the end of the Collection. s.get(-1) gets the last item in the Collection.

    Type Parameters

    • NSV

    Parameters

    • index: number
    • notSetValue: NSV

    Returns T | NSV

  • Returns the value associated with the provided key, or notSetValue if the Collection does not contain this key.

    Note: it is possible a key may be associated with an undefined value, so if notSetValue is not provided and this method returns undefined, that does not guarantee the key was not found.

    Parameters

    • index: number

    Returns undefined | T

  • Returns the value found by following a path of keys or indices through nested Collections.

    const { Map, List } = require('immutable')
    const deepData = Map({ x: List([ Map({ y: 123 }) ]) });
    deepData.getIn(['x', 0, 'y']) // 123

    Plain JavaScript Object or Arrays may be nested within an Immutable.js Collection, and getIn() can access those values as well:

    const { Map, List } = require('immutable')
    const deepData = Map({ x: [ { y: 123 } ] });
    deepData.getIn(['x', 0, 'y']) // 123

    Parameters

    • searchKeyPath: Iterable<unknown>
    • OptionalnotSetValue: unknown

    Returns unknown

  • Returns a Map of Collection, grouped by the return value of the grouper function.

    Note: This is always an eager operation.

    const { List, Map } = require('immutable')
    const listOfMaps = List([
    Map({ v: 0 }),
    Map({ v: 1 }),
    Map({ v: 1 }),
    Map({ v: 0 }),
    Map({ v: 2 })
    ])
    const groupsOfMaps = listOfMaps.groupBy(x => x.get('v'))
    // Map {
    // 0: List [ Map{ "v": 0 }, Map { "v": 0 } ],
    // 1: List [ Map{ "v": 1 }, Map { "v": 1 } ],
    // 2: List [ Map{ "v": 2 } ],
    // }

    Type Parameters

    • G

    Parameters

    • grouper: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => G
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns Map<G, List<T>>

  • True if a key exists within this Collection, using Immutable.is to determine equality

    Parameters

    • key: number

    Returns boolean

  • Computes and returns the hashed identity for this Collection.

    The hashCode of a Collection is used to determine potential equality, and is used when adding this to a Set or as a key in a Map, enabling lookup via a different instance.

    const a = List([ 1, 2, 3 ]);
    const b = List([ 1, 2, 3 ]);
    assert.notStrictEqual(a, b); // different instances
    const set = Set([ a ]);
    assert.equal(set.has(b), true);

    If two values have the same hashCode, they are not guaranteed to be equal. If two values have different hashCodes, they must not be equal.

    Returns number

  • True if the result of following a path of keys or indices through nested Collections results in a set value.

    Parameters

    • searchKeyPath: Iterable<unknown>

    Returns boolean

  • True if a value exists within this Collection, using Immutable.is to determine equality

    Parameters

    • value: T

    Returns boolean

    contains

  • Returns the first index at which a given value can be found in the Collection, or -1 if it is not present.

    Parameters

    • searchValue: T

    Returns number

  • Returns a new List with value at index with a size 1 more than this List. Values at indices above index are shifted over by 1.

    This is synonymous with list.splice(index, 0, value).

    List([ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 ]).insert(6, 5)
    // List [ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ]

    Since insert() re-indexes values, it produces a complete copy, which has O(N) complexity.

    Note: insert cannot be used in withMutations.

    Parameters

    • index: number
    • value: T

    Returns List<T>

  • Returns a Collection of the same type with the provided collections interleaved into this collection.

    The resulting Collection includes the first item from each, then the second from each, etc.

    const { List } = require('immutable')
    List([ 1, 2, 3 ]).interleave(List([ 'A', 'B', 'C' ]))
    // List [ 1, "A", 2, "B", 3, "C" ]

    The shortest Collection stops interleave.

    List([ 1, 2, 3 ]).interleave(
    List([ 'A', 'B' ]),
    List([ 'X', 'Y', 'Z' ])
    )
    // List [ 1, "A", "X", 2, "B", "Y" ]

    Since interleave() re-indexes values, it produces a complete copy, which has O(N) complexity.

    Note: interleave cannot be used in withMutations.

    Parameters

    Returns this

  • Returns a Collection of the same type with separator between each item in this Collection.

    Parameters

    • separator: T

    Returns this

  • Returns true if this Collection includes no values.

    For some lazy Seq, isEmpty might need to iterate to determine emptiness. At most one iteration will occur.

    Returns boolean

  • True if iter includes every value in this Collection.

    Parameters

    • iter: Iterable<T>

    Returns boolean

  • True if this Collection includes every value in iter.

    Parameters

    • iter: Iterable<T>

    Returns boolean

  • Joins values together as a string, inserting a separator between each. The default separator is ",".

    Parameters

    • Optionalseparator: string

    Returns string

  • Returns the key associated with the search value, or undefined.

    Parameters

    • searchValue: T

    Returns undefined | number

  • An iterator of this Collection's keys.

    Note: this will return an ES6 iterator which does not support Immutable.js sequence algorithms. Use keySeq instead, if this is what you want.

    Returns IterableIterator<number>

  • Returns a new Seq.Indexed of the keys of this Collection, discarding values.

    Returns Indexed<number>

  • In case the Collection is not empty returns the last element of the Collection. In case the Collection is empty returns the optional default value if provided, if no default value is provided returns undefined.

    Type Parameters

    • NSV = undefined

    Parameters

    • OptionalnotSetValue: NSV

    Returns T | NSV

  • Returns the last index at which a given value can be found in the Collection, or -1 if it is not present.

    Parameters

    • searchValue: T

    Returns number

  • Returns the last key associated with the search value, or undefined.

    Parameters

    • searchValue: T

    Returns undefined | number

  • Returns a new List with values passed through a mapper function.

    List([ 1, 2 ]).map(x => 10 * x)
    // List [ 10, 20 ]

    Type Parameters

    • M

    Parameters

    • mapper: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => M
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns List<M>

  • Returns the maximum value in this collection. If any values are comparatively equivalent, the first one found will be returned.

    The comparator is used in the same way as Collection#sort. If it is not provided, the default comparator is >.

    When two values are considered equivalent, the first encountered will be returned. Otherwise, max will operate independent of the order of input as long as the comparator is commutative. The default comparator > is commutative only when types do not differ.

    If comparator returns 0 and either value is NaN, undefined, or null, that value will be returned.

    Parameters

    • Optionalcomparator: Comparator<T>

    Returns undefined | T

  • Like max, but also accepts a comparatorValueMapper which allows for comparing by more sophisticated means:

    const { List, } = require('immutable');
    const l = List([
    { name: 'Bob', avgHit: 1 },
    { name: 'Max', avgHit: 3 },
    { name: 'Lili', avgHit: 2 } ,
    ]);
    l.maxBy(i => i.avgHit); // will output { name: 'Max', avgHit: 3 }

    Type Parameters

    • C

    Parameters

    • comparatorValueMapper: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => C
    • Optionalcomparator: Comparator<C>

    Returns undefined | T

    Parameters

    • keyPath: Iterable<unknown>
    • ...collections: unknown[]

    Returns this

    Map#mergeIn

  • Returns the minimum value in this collection. If any values are comparatively equivalent, the first one found will be returned.

    The comparator is used in the same way as Collection#sort. If it is not provided, the default comparator is <.

    When two values are considered equivalent, the first encountered will be returned. Otherwise, min will operate independent of the order of input as long as the comparator is commutative. The default comparator < is commutative only when types do not differ.

    If comparator returns 0 and either value is NaN, undefined, or null, that value will be returned.

    Parameters

    • Optionalcomparator: Comparator<T>

    Returns undefined | T

  • Like min, but also accepts a comparatorValueMapper which allows for comparing by more sophisticated means:

    const { List, } = require('immutable');
    const l = List([
    { name: 'Bob', avgHit: 1 },
    { name: 'Max', avgHit: 3 },
    { name: 'Lili', avgHit: 2 } ,
    ]);
    l.minBy(i => i.avgHit); // will output { name: 'Bob', avgHit: 1 }

  • Returns a new List with a size ones less than this List, excluding the last index in this List.

    Note: this differs from Array#pop because it returns a new List rather than the removed value. Use last() to get the last value in this List.

    List([ 1, 2, 3, 4 ]).pop()
    // List[ 1, 2, 3 ]

    Note: pop can be used in withMutations.

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type containing all entries except the first.

    Returns this

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type in reverse order.

    Returns this

  • Returns a new List which includes value at index. If index already exists in this List, it will be replaced.

    index may be a negative number, which indexes back from the end of the List. v.set(-1, "value") sets the last item in the List.

    If index larger than size, the returned List's size will be large enough to include the index.

    const originalList = List([ 0 ]);
    // List [ 0 ]
    originalList.set(1, 1);
    // List [ 0, 1 ]
    originalList.set(0, 'overwritten');
    // List [ "overwritten" ]
    originalList.set(2, 2);
    // List [ 0, undefined, 2 ]

    List().set(50000, 'value').size;
    // 50001

    Note: set can be used in withMutations.

    Parameters

    • index: number
    • value: T

    Returns List<T>

  • Returns a new List having set value at this keyPath. If any keys in keyPath do not exist, a new immutable Map will be created at that key.

    Index numbers are used as keys to determine the path to follow in the List.

    const { List } = require('immutable')
    const list = List([ 0, 1, 2, List([ 3, 4 ])])
    list.setIn([3, 0], 999);
    // List [ 0, 1, 2, List [ 999, 4 ] ]

    Plain JavaScript Object or Arrays may be nested within an Immutable.js Collection, and setIn() can update those values as well, treating them immutably by creating new copies of those values with the changes applied.

    const { List } = require('immutable')
    const list = List([ 0, 1, 2, { plain: 'object' }])
    list.setIn([3, 'plain'], 'value');
    // List([ 0, 1, 2, { plain: 'value' }])

    Note: setIn can be used in withMutations.

    Parameters

    • keyPath: Iterable<unknown>
    • value: unknown

    Returns this

  • Returns a new List with size size. If size is less than this List's size, the new List will exclude values at the higher indices. If size is greater than this List's size, the new List will have undefined values for the newly available indices.

    When building a new List and the final size is known up front, setSize used in conjunction with withMutations may result in the more performant construction.

    Parameters

    • size: number

    Returns List<T>

  • Returns a new List with a size ones less than this List, excluding the first index in this List, shifting all other values to a lower index.

    Note: this differs from Array#shift because it returns a new List rather than the removed value. Use first() to get the first value in this List.

    List([ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 ]).shift();
    // List [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ]

    Note: shift can be used in withMutations.

    Returns List<T>

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type which excludes the first amount entries from this Collection.

    Parameters

    • amount: number

    Returns this

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type which excludes the last amount entries from this Collection.

    Parameters

    • amount: number

    Returns this

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type which includes entries starting from when predicate first returns true.

    const { List } = require('immutable')
    List([ 'dog', 'frog', 'cat', 'hat', 'god' ])
    .skipUntil(x => x.match(/hat/))

    • predicate: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => boolean
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns this

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type which includes entries starting from when predicate first returns false.

    const { List } = require('immutable')
    List([ 'dog', 'frog', 'cat', 'hat', 'god' ])
    .skipWhile(x => x.match(/g/))
    // List [ "cat", "hat", "god" ]

    Parameters

    • predicate: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => boolean
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns this

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type representing a portion of this Collection from start up to but not including end.

    If begin is negative, it is offset from the end of the Collection. e.g. slice(-2) returns a Collection of the last two entries. If it is not provided the new Collection will begin at the beginning of this Collection.

    If end is negative, it is offset from the end of the Collection. e.g. slice(0, -1) returns a Collection of everything but the last entry. If it is not provided, the new Collection will continue through the end of this Collection.

    If the requested slice is equivalent to the current Collection, then it will return itself.

    Parameters

    • Optionalbegin: number
    • Optionalend: number

    Returns this

  • True if predicate returns true for any entry in the Collection.

    Parameters

    • predicate: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => boolean
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns boolean

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type which includes the same entries, stably sorted by using a comparator.

    If a comparator is not provided, a default comparator uses < and >.

    comparator(valueA, valueB):

    • Returns 0 if the elements should not be swapped.
    • Returns -1 (or any negative number) if valueA comes before valueB
    • Returns 1 (or any positive number) if valueA comes after valueB
    • Alternatively, can return a value of the PairSorting enum type
    • Is pure, i.e. it must always return the same value for the same pair of values.

    When sorting collections which have no defined order, their ordered equivalents will be returned. e.g. map.sort() returns OrderedMap.

    const { Map } = require('immutable')
    Map({ "c": 3, "a": 1, "b": 2 }).sort((a, b) => {
    if (a < b) { return -1; }
    if (a > b) { return 1; }
    if (a === b) { return 0; }
    });
    // OrderedMap { "a": 1, "b": 2, "c": 3 }

    Note: sort() Always returns a new instance, even if the original was already sorted.

    Note: This is always an eager operation.

    Parameters

    • Optionalcomparator: Comparator<T>

    Returns this

  • Like sort, but also accepts a comparatorValueMapper which allows for sorting by more sophisticated means:

    const { Map } = require('immutable')
    const beattles = Map({
    John: { name: "Lennon" },
    Paul: { name: "McCartney" },
    George: { name: "Harrison" },
    Ringo: { name: "Starr" },
    });
    beattles.sortBy(member => member.name);

    Note: sortBy() Always returns a new instance, even if the original was already sorted.

    Note: This is always an eager operation.

    Type Parameters

    • C

    Parameters

    • comparatorValueMapper: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => C
    • Optionalcomparator: Comparator<C>

    Returns this

  • Splice returns a new indexed Collection by replacing a region of this Collection with new values. If values are not provided, it only skips the region to be removed.

    index may be a negative number, which indexes back from the end of the Collection. s.splice(-2) splices after the second to last item.

    const { List } = require('immutable')
    List([ 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd' ]).splice(1, 2, 'q', 'r', 's')
    // List [ "a", "q", "r", "s", "d" ]

    Since splice() re-indexes values, it produces a complete copy, which has O(N) complexity.

    Note: splice cannot be used in withMutations.

    Parameters

    • index: number
    • removeNum: number
    • ...values: T[]

    Returns this

    • amount: number

    Returns this

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type which includes entries from this Collection as long as the predicate returns false.

    const { List } = require('immutable')
    List([ 'dog', 'frog', 'cat', 'hat', 'god' ])
    .takeUntil(x => x.match(/at/))
    // List [ "dog", "frog" ]

    Parameters

    • predicate: (value: T, key: number, iter: this) => boolean
    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns this

  • Returns a new Collection of the same type which includes entries from this Collection as long as the predicate returns true.

    const { List } = require('immutable')
    List([ 'dog', 'frog', 'cat', 'hat', 'god' ])
    .takeWhile(x => x.match(/o/))
    // List [ "dog", "frog" ]

    Parameters

    • Optionalcontext: unknown

    Returns this

  • Shallowly converts this collection to an Array.

    Returns T[]

  • Deeply converts this Indexed collection to equivalent native JavaScript Array.

    Returns DeepCopy<T>[]

  • Returns a Seq.Keyed from this Collection where indices are treated as keys.

    This is useful if you want to operate on an Collection.Indexed and preserve the [index, value] pairs.

    The returned Seq will have identical iteration order as this Collection.

    const { Seq } = require('immutable')
    const indexedSeq = Seq([ 'A', 'B', 'C' ])
    // Seq [ "A", "B", "C" ]
    indexedSeq.filter(v => v === 'B')
    // Seq [ "B" ]
    const keyedSeq = indexedSeq.toKeyedSeq()
    // Seq { 0: "A", 1: "B", 2: "C" }
    keyedSeq.filter(v => v === 'B')
    // Seq { 1: "B" }

    Returns Keyed<number, T>

  • Converts this Collection to a List, discarding keys.

    This is similar to List(collection), but provided to allow for chained expressions. However, when called on Map or other keyed collections, collection.toList() discards the keys and creates a list of only the values, whereas List(collection) creates a list of entry tuples.

    const { Map, List } = require('immutable')
    var myMap = Map({ a: 'Apple', b: 'Banana' })
    List(myMap) // List [ [ "a", "Apple" ], [ "b", "Banana" ] ]
    myMap.toList() // List [ "Apple", "Banana" ]

    Returns List<T>

  • Converts this Collection to a Map, Throws if keys are not hashable.

    Note: This is equivalent to Map(this.toKeyedSeq()), but provided for convenience and to allow for chained expressions.

  • Shallowly converts this Collection to an Object.

    Converts keys to Strings.

    Returns { [key: string]: T }

    Note: This is equivalent to OrderedMap(this.toKeyedSeq()), but provided for convenience and to allow for chained expressions.

    Returns OrderedMap<number, T>

  • Converts this Collection to a Set, maintaining the order of iteration and discarding keys.

    Note: This is equivalent to OrderedSet(this.valueSeq()), but provided for convenience and to allow for chained expressions.

    Returns OrderedSet<T>

  • Converts this Collection to a Set, discarding keys. Throws if values are not hashable.

    Note: This is equivalent to Set(this), but provided to allow for chained expressions.

    Returns Set<T>

  • Returns a Seq.Set of the values of this Collection, discarding keys.

    Returns Set<T>

  • Converts this Collection to a Stack, discarding keys. Throws if values are not hashable.

    Note: This is equivalent to Stack(this), but provided to allow for chained expressions.

    Returns Stack<T>

  • Returns a new List with the provided values prepended, shifting other values ahead to higher indices.

    List([ 2, 3, 4]).unshift(1);
    // List [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ]

    Note: unshift can be used in withMutations.

    Parameters

    • ...values: T[]

    Returns List<T>

  • Returns a new List with an updated value at index with the return value of calling updater with the existing value, or notSetValue if index was not set. If called with a single argument, updater is called with the List itself.

    index may be a negative number, which indexes back from the end of the List. v.update(-1) updates the last item in the List.

    const list = List([ 'a', 'b', 'c' ])
    const result = list.update(2, val => val.toUpperCase())
    // List [ "a", "b", "C" ]

    This can be very useful as a way to "chain" a normal function into a sequence of methods. RxJS calls this "let" and lodash calls it "thru".

    For example, to sum a List after mapping and filtering:

    function sum(collection) {
    return collection.reduce((sum, x) => sum + x, 0)
    }

    List([ 1, 2, 3 ])
    .map(x => x + 1)
    .filter(x => x % 2 === 0)
    .update(sum)
    // 6

    Note: update(index) can be used in withMutations.

    Parameters

    • index: number
    • notSetValue: T
    • updater: (value: T) => T

    Returns this

    Map#update

    }

    Seq([ 1, 2, 3 ])
    .map(x => x + 1)
    .filter(x => x % 2 === 0)

    Returns this

    Map#withMutations

  • Returns a List "zipped" with the provided collection.

    Like zipWith, but using the default zipper: creating an Array.

    const a = List([ 1, 2, 3 ]);
    const b = List([ 4, 5, 6 ]);
    const c = a.zip(b); // List [ [ 1, 4 ], [ 2, 5 ], [ 3, 6 ] ]

    Type Parameters

    • U

    Parameters

    Returns List<[T, U]>

  • Returns a Collection of the same type "zipped" with the provided collections.

    Like zipWith, but using the default zipper: creating an Array.

    const a = List([ 1, 2, 3 ]);
