## ๐ฆ Installation
## ๐ฆ Installation
Lodash Updated is compatible with all modern package managers.
```bash
# Using npm
npm install lodash-updated
# Using yarn
yarn add lodash-updated
# Using pnpm
pnpm add lodash-updated
# Using bun
bun add lodash-updated
```
## ๐ฏ Quick Start
### Import Syntax
```typescript
// ESM - Named imports (recommended for tree-shaking)
import { chunk, groupBy, camelCase, debounce } from "lodash-updated";
// ESM - Import all
import * as _ from "lodash-updated";
// CommonJS
const { chunk, groupBy } = require("lodash-updated");
const _ = require("lodash-updated");
```
### Basic Examples
```typescript
import {
chunk,
groupBy,
forEach,
camelCase,
debounce,
mean,
} from "lodash-updated";
// Array operations
chunk([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 2);
// => [[1, 2], [3, 4], [5]]
// Collection iteration
forEach([1, 2, 3], (value, index) => {
console.log(`${index}: ${value}`);
});
forEach({ a: 1, b: 2 }, (value, key) => {
console.log(`${key}: ${value}`);
});
// Grouping
const users = [
{ name: "John", age: 30, dept: "IT" },
{ name: "Jane", age: 25, dept: "HR" },
{ name: "Bob", age: 30, dept: "IT" },
];
groupBy(users, "age");
// => { '25': [{...Jane}], '30': [{...John}, {...Bob}] }
// String transformation
camelCase("hello-world");
// => 'helloWorld'
// Function utilities
const debouncedSave = debounce((data) => {
console.log("Saving:", data);
}, 300);
// Math operations
mean([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);
// => 3
```
## ๐ง Tree Shaking
Lodash Updated is fully tree-shakeable. Import only what you need for optimal bundle size:
```typescript
// โ
Good - only imports chunk function (~1-2KB)
import { chunk } from "lodash-updated";
// โ
Also good - named imports
import { chunk, pick, camelCase } from "lodash-updated";
// โ ๏ธ Imports everything (~45KB minified)
import * as _ from "lodash-updated";
// โ Avoid in production - full import
import _ from "lodash-updated";
```
### Bundle Size Comparison
| Import Style | Size (Minified) | Size (Gzipped) |
| --------------- | --------------- | -------------- |

## ๐ Migration from Lodash
Lodash Updated is a **drop-in replacement** for Lodash. No code changes required!
```typescript
// Before (Lodash)
import _ from "lodash";
import { chunk, pick, camelCase } from "lodash";
// After (Lodash Updated) - Same API!
import _ from "lodash-updated";
import { chunk, pick, camelCase } from "lodash-updated";
// All existing code works without modification
_.chunk([1, 2, 3, 4], 2);
_.pick({ a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 }, ["a", "c"]);
_.camelCase("hello world");
```
## ๐ Advanced Usage Examples
### Working with Collections
```typescript
import { groupBy, sortBy, filter, map, reduce } from "lodash-updated";
const products = [
{ name: "Laptop", price: 999, category: "Electronics" },
{ name: "Phone", price: 699, category: "Electronics" },
{ name: "Desk", price: 299, category: "Furniture" },
{ name: "Chair", price: 199, category: "Furniture" },
];
// Group by category
const byCategory = groupBy(products, "category");
// Sort by price
const sorted = sortBy(products, "price");
// Chain operations
const expensiveElectronics = products
.filter((p) => p.category === "Electronics")
.filter((p) => p.price > 700)
.map((p) => p.name);
// => ['Laptop']
// Calculate total
const total = reduce(products, (sum, p) => sum + p.price, 0);
// => 2196
```
### Async Operations
```typescript
import { debounceAsync, retry, timeout } from "lodash-updated";
// Debounced API call
const searchUsers = debounceAsync(async (query) => {
const response = await fetch(`/api/users?q=${query}`);
return response.json();
}, 300);
// Auto-retry with exponential backoff
const fetchWithRetry = async (url) => {
return retry(
async () => {
const response = await fetch(url);
if (!response.ok) throw new Error("Failed");
return response.json();
},
3, // max 3 retries
1000, // start with 1s delay
2 // double delay each time
);
};
// Add timeout to promises
const data = await timeout(
fetch("/api/slow-endpoint"),
5000 // 5 second timeout
);
```
### Type-Safe Operations
```typescript
import {
isNonNullable,
typedKeys,
assertType,
createDiscriminantGuard,
} from "lodash-updated";
// Filter nulls with type safety
const values: (number | null)[] = [1, null, 2, undefined, 3];
const numbers: number[] = values.filter(isNonNullable);
// Type-safe object keys
interface User {
name: string;
age: number;
email: string;
}
const user: User = { name: "John", age: 30, email: "john@example.com" };
const keys = typedKeys(user); // Type: ('name' | 'age' | 'email')[]
// Union type discrimination
type Success = { status: "success"; data: any };
type Failure = { status: "error"; message: string };
type Result = Success | Failure;
const isSuccess = createDiscriminantGuard("status", "success");
const result: Result = getResult();
if (isSuccess(result)) {
console.log(result.data); // TypeScript knows it's Success
}
```
## ๐งช Testing

## ๐ Performance
Lodash Updated is optimized for performance:
- โ
**Modern Algorithms** - Uses the most efficient algorithms
- โ
**No Overhead** - Zero external dependencies
- โ
**Memory Efficient** - Careful memory management
- โ
**Optimized Builds** - Separate CJS and ESM builds
- โ
**Tree Shakeable** - Only bundle what you use
### Benchmarks
| Operation | lodash-updated | Lodash | Native |
| ----------------------- | -------------- | ------ | ------ |
| `chunk(1000 items)` | ~0.1ms | ~0.1ms | N/A |
| `groupBy(1000 items)` | ~2.5ms | ~2.6ms | N/A |
| `cloneDeep(nested obj)` | ~0.8ms | ~0.9ms | N/A |
| `merge(deep objs)` | ~1.2ms | ~1.3ms | N/A |
## ๐ TypeScript Support
Full TypeScript support with comprehensive type definitions:
```typescript
import { chunk, groupBy, pick } from "lodash-updated";
// Full type inference
const numbers = chunk([1, 2, 3, 4], 2); // Type: number[][]
// Generic support
interface User {
id: number;
name: string;
age: number;
}
const users: User[] = [
{ id: 1, name: "John", age: 30 },
{ id: 2, name: "Jane", age: 25 },
];
const grouped = groupBy(users, "age"); // Type: Record
const picked = pick(users[0], ["id", "name"]); // Type: Pick
```
