# @push.rocks/smartarray
a package exposing async manipulation for arrays

## Install
To add `@push.rocks/smartarray` to your project, run the following command:

```bash
npm install @push.rocks/smartarray --save

This will install the package and add it to your project's dependencies. Ensure you have Node.js and npm installed on your machine before running this command.

Usage

@push.rocks/smartarray is designed to enhance array manipulation with asynchronous operations in TypeScript. Below, we explore various functionalities provided by the package, including mapping, filtering, and deduplication, with a focus on their asynchronous nature.

Getting Started

To use @push.rocks/smartarray, first import the functionalities you require:

import { map, filter, deduplicate } from '@push.rocks/smartarray';

Mapping Arrays Asynchronously

The map function allows you to apply an asynchronous function to each item in an array and collect the results.

Example:

const numbers = [1, 2, 3];
const doubledNumbers = await map(numbers, async (number) => {
  return number * 2;
});
console.log(doubledNumbers); // [2, 4, 6]

Filtering Arrays Asynchronously

You can asynchronously decide which items to keep in an array using the filter function.

Example:

const userIds = [1, 2, 3, 4];
const activeUserIds = await filter(userIds, async (userId) => {
  // Let's assume isActiveUser is an async function returning a boolean
  return isActiveUser(userId);
});
console.log(activeUserIds); // Assuming users 1, 3, and 4 are active: [1, 3, 4]

Deduplicating Arrays Asynchronously

Deduplicate an array based on a unique key derived asynchronously from each element using the deduplicate function.

Example:

const users = [
  { id: 1, email: 'user1@example.com' },
  { id: 2, email: 'user2@example.com' },
  { id: 1, email: 'user1@example.com' } // Duplicate based on 'id'
];
const uniqueUsers = await deduplicate(users, async (user) => {
  return user.id;
});
console.log(uniqueUsers);
// Output: [{ id: 1, email: 'user1@example.com' }, { id: 2, email: 'user2@example.com' }]

These examples underline the versatility and power of @push.rocks/smartarray in handling arrays with asynchronous operations, making it easier to integrate asynchronous logic into array manipulation tasks. Remember to handle asynchronous operations with async/await syntax to maintain clear and comprehensible code.
