Aggregate in Typescript

I have implemented Aggregate method in my Linq library written for Typescript.

if (!Array.prototype.Aggregate) {
  Array.prototype.Aggregate = function <T>(accumulator: any, currentValue: any, reducerFunc: (accumulator: any, currentValue: any) => any): any {
    //debugger
    if (reducerFunc === undefined || reducerFunc === null) {
      reducerFunc = (accumulator, currentValue) => accumulator + currentValue;
    }
    let result = this.reduce(reducerFunc);
    return result;
  }
}

if (!Array.prototype.AggregateSelect) {
  Array.prototype.AggregateSelect = function <T>(property: (keyof T), accumulator: any, currentValue: any, reducerFunc: (accumulator: any, currentValue: any) => any): any {
    //debugger
    if (reducerFunc === undefined || reducerFunc === null) {
      reducerFunc = (accumulator, currentValue) => accumulator + currentValue;
    }
    //debugger
    let result = this.Select(property).map(n => n[property]).reduce(reducerFunc);
    return result;
  }
}

Here are some Jasmine tests for these two methods - note that I also support setting the initial value.

  it('can aggregate items to expected result using Aggregate on array of items of numbers', () => {
    let someNums = [1, 2, 3, 4];
    let result = someNums.Aggregate(0, 0, null);
    expect(result).toBe(10);
  });

  it('can aggregate items and project to expected result using AggregateSelect on array of items of objects', () => {
    let someArray: any[] = [];
    someArray.push(<SomeClass>{ Name: "Foo", Num: 1 });
    someArray.push(<SomeClass>{ Name: "FooBaz", Num: 4 });
    someArray.push(<SomeClass>{ Name: "AllyoBaze", Num: 7 });
    let result = someArray.AggregateSelect<SomeClass>("Num", 0, 0, null);
    expect(result).toBe(12);
  });

  it('can aggregate once more items and project to expected result using AggregateSelect on array of items of objects with accumulator value set initially', () => {
    let someArray: Student[] = [];
    someArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 1, StudentName: "John", Age: 13 });
    someArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 2, StudentName: "Moin", Age: 21 });
    someArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 3, StudentName: "Bill", Age: 18 });
    someArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 4, StudentName: "Ram", Age: 20 });
    someArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 5, StudentName: "Ron", Age: 15 });
    let result = someArray.AggregateSelect<Student>("StudentName", "Student Names: ", 0, (a, b) => a + "," + b);
    expect(result).toBe("John,Moin,Bill,Ram,Ron");
  });

My interface definition is growing everytime for my Linq Library! Here is how it looks now:

export { } //creating a module of below code
declare global {
  type predicate<T> = (arg: T) => boolean;
  type sortingValue<T> = (arg: T) => any;
  interface Array<T> {
    FirstOrDefault<T>(condition: predicate<T>): T;
    LastOrDefault<T>(condition: predicate<T>): T;
    Where<T>(condition: predicate<T>): T[];
    Count<T>(): number;
    CountBy<T>(condition: predicate<T>): number;
    Select<T>(...properties: (keyof T)[]): any[];
    GroupBy<T>(groupFunc: (arg: T) => string): any[];
    EnumerableRange(start: number, count: number): number[];
    Any<T>(condition: predicate<T>): boolean;
    All<T>(condition: predicate<T>): boolean;
    MaxSelect<T>(property: (keyof T)): any;
    MinSelect<T>(property: (keyof T)): any;
    Average<T>(): number;
    AverageSelect<T>(property: (keyof T)): number;
    Max(): any;
    Min(): any;
    Sum(): any;
    Distinct<T>(): T[];
    DistinctBy<T>(property: (keyof T)): any;
    SumSelect<T>(property: (keyof T)): any;
    Intersect<T>(otherArray: T[]): T[];
    IntersectSelect<T>(property: (keyof T), otherArray: T[]): T[];
    MinSelect<T>(property: (keyof T)): any;
    OrderBy<T>(sortMember: sortingValue<T>): T[];
    OrderByDescending<T>(sortMember: sortingValue<T>): T[];
    ThenBy<T>(sortMember: sortingValue<T>): T[];
    OfType<T>(compareObject: T): T[];
    SequenceEqual<T>(compareArray: T): boolean;
    Take<T>(count: number): T[];
    TakeWhile<T>(condition: predicate<T>): T[];
    SkipWhile<T>(condition: predicate<T>): T[];
    Skip<T>(count: number): T[];
    defaultComparerSort<T>(x: T, y: T);
    ElementAt<T>(index: number);
    ElementAtOrDefault<T>(index: number);
    Aggregate<T>(accumulator: any, currentValue: any, reducerFunc: (accumulator: any, currentValue: any) => any): any;
    AggregateSelect<T>(property: (keyof T), accumulator: any, currentValue: any, reducerFunc: (accumulator: any, currentValue: any) => any): any;
  }
}

DistinctBy operator written in Typescript

I am extended my Linq library for Typescript with many more methods! Here is my implementation of DistinctBy.

if (!Array.prototype.DistinctBy) {
  Array.prototype.DistinctBy = function <T>(property: (keyof T)): T[] {
    if (this === null || this === undefined) {
      return [];
    }
    let filteringArray = this.Select(property).map(n => n[property]);

    let distinctRunOnArray = this.filter((value, index, array) => {
      let valueProperty = value[property];
      return filteringArray.indexOf(valueProperty) === index;
    });
    return distinctRunOnArray;
  }
}

This Jasmine test can test this operator out.

describe('TSLinq Jasmine tests', () => {

  it('can filter out duplicates using DistinctBy on array of items of objects', () => {
    let someArray: Student[] = [];
    someArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 1, StudentName: "John", Age: 13 });
    someArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 2, StudentName: "Moin", Age: 21 });
    someArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 2, StudentName: "Moin", Age: 21 });
    someArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 4, StudentName: "Ram", Age: 20 });
    someArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 5, StudentName: "Ron", Age: 15 });
    let expectedArray: Student[] = [];
    expectedArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 1, StudentName: "John", Age: 13 });
    expectedArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 2, StudentName: "Moin", Age: 21 });
    expectedArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 4, StudentName: "Ram", Age: 20 });
    expectedArray.push(<Student>{ StudentID: 5, StudentName: "Ron", Age: 15 });
    let result = someArray.DistinctBy<Student>("StudentID");
    expect(result).toEqual(expectedArray);
  });


});

The Student class is simple:

class Student {
  StudentID: number;
  StudentName: string;
  Age: number;
}

Implementing OfType in Typescript

I am working on my Linq library for Typescript and wanted to implement OfType. Turns out, this is hard because the generic type arguments in Typescript usually requires a value, i.e. an object instance of type T to get any shape information at run-time. So I ended up passing in a vanilla object setting default property values instead. Here is how my implementation ended up:

function isOfSimilarShape<T>(input: any, compareObject: T): boolean {
  if (input === undefined || input === null || compareObject === undefined || compareObject === null)
    return false;

  let propsOfInput = Object.keys(input);
  let propsOfCompareObject = Object.keys(compareObject);
  //debugger
  let sameShapeOfInputAndCompareObject = propsOfInput.EqualTo(propsOfCompareObject);
  return sameShapeOfInputAndCompareObject;
}

if (!Array.prototype.OfType) {
  Array.prototype.OfType = function <T>(compareObject: T): T[] {
    let result: T[] = [];
    this.forEach(el => {
      //debugger
      let t: T = null;
      if (isOfSimilarShape(el, compareObject))
        result.push(el);
    });
    return result;
  }
}

The following Jasmine test shows its usage:

describe('Array Extensions tests', () => {

  it('can find desired items using OfType of type T', () => {
    let someMixedArray: any[] = [];
    someMixedArray.push(<SomeClass>{ Name: "Foo", Num: 1 });
    someMixedArray.push(<SomeOtherClass>{ SomeName: "BarBazBaze", SomeOtherNum: 813 });
    someMixedArray.push(<SomeClass>{ Name: "FooBaz", Num: 4 });
    someMixedArray.push(<SomeOtherClass>{ SomeName: "BarBaze", SomeOtherNum: 13 });
    someMixedArray.push(<SomeClass>{ Name: "AllyoBaze", Num: 7 });

    let compareObject = <SomeClass>{ Name: "", Num: 0 };
    let filteredArrayBySpecifiedType = someMixedArray.OfType(compareObject);
    console.log(filteredArrayBySpecifiedType);

    expect(filteredArrayBySpecifiedType.All(item => <SomeClass>item !== undefined)).toBe(true, "Expected only items of type SomeOtherClass in the filtered array after running OfType of SomeOtherClass on it.");
  });

It would be nice if we did not have to pass in a vanilla object and populate its properties, but I could not find any tips online or in the Typescript documentation for how to implement extracting type information from generic arguments of Typescript. This is very easy in C#, but while Typescript gives compilation type information, getting runtime information from generic arguments in the Javascript code that Typescript compiles into turned much harder.

More methods: Any, All, EnumerableRange, GroupBy for Linq like library written in TypeScript

I am extending my TypeScript library written to target Linq like methods, which can be used with Angular 8 and Typescript also. You can find my Github repo SimpleLinqLibraryTs here: https://github.com/toreaurstadboss/SimpleLinqLibraryTs/blob/master/src/app/array-extensions.ts

Implementing Linq methods on arrays with Typescript for Angular 8

This article will look into implementing Linq methods on array with Typescript for Angular 8. First off, I have created a repo for this article on Github. Simple Linq Library written with Typescript for Angular 8 This only implements FirstOrDefault and Where Linq operators on arrays. We first need to define our Array prototype methods. Since we use Angular, first we define an empty module using export {} and then declare global { .. } Inside our declare global we define our type predicate and our methods Where and FirstOrDefault. Then we define our two methods if they do not exist yet on Array.prototype. The special syntax above is adaptions for Typescript and Angular. I have tested this with Angular 8. Here is the Typescript code I ended up with:

export { } //creating a module of below code
declare global {
  type predicate<T> = (arg: T) => boolean;
  interface Array<T> {
    FirstOrDefault<T>(condition: predicate<T>): T;
    Where<T>(condition: predicate<T>): T[];
  }
}

if (!Array.prototype.FirstOrDefault) {
  Array.prototype.FirstOrDefault = function <T>(condition: predicate<T>): T {
    let matchingItems: T[] = this.filter((item: T) => {

      if (condition(item)) {
        return item;
      }
    });
    if (matchingItems.length > 0) {
      return matchingItems[0];
    }
    return null;
  }
}

if (!Array.prototype.Where) {
  Array.prototype.Where = function <T>(condition: predicate<T>): T[] {

    let matchingItems: T[] = this.filter((item: T) => {

      if (condition(item)) {
        return true;
      }
    });
    return matchingItems;
  }
}

Let us define some input data - an array to work on and pass into predicates where we can test out FirstOrDefault and Where methods !

import { Movie } from './movie';

export class Movie {
  title: string;
  episode_number: string;
  main_characters: string[];
  description: string;
  poster: string;
  hero_image: string;
}

Now we can test out these predicate methods FirstOrDefault and Where ! Note that in case you have worked with C# and Linq before, the syntax and the Intellisense will make you feel more at home with this kind of code - not only do you have type checking, but you can also pass in strongly typed predicate methods using Typescript, Generics and the Array prototype techniques discussed here. Also note how I define a predicate type here defining an arrow function, being the predicate.

import { Component, Inject } from '@angular/core';
import { StarWarsMovies } from './starwarsmovies';
import { Movie } from './movie';
import './array-extensions';

@Component({
  selector: 'app-root',
  templateUrl: './app.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./app.component.css']
})
export class AppComponent {
  title = 'Linq TsExtensions demo';

  firstMovieWithBoba: Movie;
  allMoviesWithLeia: Movie[];
  starwarsMovies: string;

  constructor() {
    this.starwarsMovies = JSON.stringify(StarWarsMovies);
    this.firstMovieWithBoba = 
StarWarsMovies.FirstOrDefault<Movie>(m => m.main_characters.indexOf('Boba Fett') > 0);
    this.allMoviesWithLeia = 
StarWarsMovies.Where<Movie>(m => m.main_characters.indexOf('Princess Leia Organa') > 0);
    console.log(this.firstMovieWithBoba);
    console.log(this.allMoviesWithLeia);
  }

}

We now can work on our strongly typed arrays and define easily our filtering predicates for Where and FirstOrDefault implementation. It should be easy to extend this into more methods, such as SingleOrDefault and Any and so on. The screen shot below shows the results after running ng serve -o:

Enumerable Range in Javascript

The following Javascript code uses Generator functions and destructuring spread operator ... to create an array between min and count, much similar to Enumerable.Range in Linq and C#. The following screen shot shows how it can be used. You can iterate this with for.. let.. of

function* Range(min,ct) {
  for (let x=min;x<=min+ct;x++) {
    yield x;
  }
}

let gen = [...Range(2,10)]
console.log(gen);

for (let y of gen) {
 console.log(y);
}

Generic method for builing a query string of classes in Typescript

This method below can be used in Typescript to build up a query string from a given object of a class instance in Typescript. Use it when performing HTTP(S) GET calls.

  BuildQueryString<T>(input: T): string {
    let q = "?";

    Object.keys(input).forEach(key => q += key + "=" + input[key] + "&");

    if (q.length > 0) {
      q = q.substr(0,q.length-1);
    }

    return q;

    
  }

Sample usage in Angular 8 solution of mine for example:

  async saveSurvey(): Promise<SurveyItem> {
    //debugger
    let s: SurveyItem = {
      Id: 0, LastUpdate: new Date(),
      EquipmentNumber: this.equpimentIdentifier, RoomNumber: this.roomIdentifier,
      PrimaryUsage: this.primaryUsage,
      IsInspected: this.GetBoolean(this.isInspected), IsNotFound: this.GetBoolean(this.isNotFound)
    };
    let q = this.fetcher.GetAPIUrl('savesurvey');
    q += this.fetcher.BuildQueryString(s);
    const response = await this.http.get<SurveyItem>(q, { headers: this.corsHeaders }).toPromise();
    //this.openSnackBar('Lagret utstyr ' + this.equpimentIdentifier);
    this.openSnackBar('Lagret utstyr ' + this.equpimentIdentifier + ' Laster inn liste for utstyr i samme rom også..');

    //After saving survye - update also the properties with updated Id and LastUpdate

    this.SetCurrentSurveyItemPropretiesFromSurveyItem(response);

    this.onRoomSelected(this.roomIdentifier);



    return response;
  }

git clone https://github.com/toreaurstadboss/eslint-standalone.git

This animated gif shows how the tools shows linting capabilities. The loaded .eslintrc.js file errors if there are ES6 syntax, which does not work well in Internet Explorer. This is done by specifying env->es6 set to true and parserOptions->ecmaVersion set to '5'. Why would you even consider supporting Internet Explorer as a browser for your products ? Well, in the real world, some customers still use Internet Explorer due to company restrictions and compability reasons. So this standalone tool together with .eslintrc.js file below should help you check files conforming to ES5 Syntax and thereby supporting Internet Explorer.

module.exports = {
  "plugins": ["ie11"],
  "env": {
    "browser": true,
    "node": true,
    "es6": false
  },
  "parserOptions": {
    "ecmaVersion": 5,
  },
  "rules": {
    "ie11/no-collection-args": ["error"],
    "ie11/no-for-in-const": ["error"],
    //"ie11/no-loop-func": ["warn"],
    "ie11/no-weak-collections": ["error"]
  }
};

To check that your Javascript code works using this tool, add the .eslinrc.js file above in the folder of your project (or any parent folder on that media disk volume). Then run the command eslint-standalone.exe after adding the .eslintrc.js file. You should then have outputted to the command line the errors (or warnings found) of ES6 Syntax, which IE does not support. Note that I have not added functionality for '--fix' with this ESLint tool yet. You must inspect the warnings and errors reported and manually adjust/fix the Javascript source code. Also note that this tool only supports looking at .js and .htm and .html files. I tried adding .cshtml files in the list of file globs supported, but the tool could not understand Razor syntax. Feel free to give me some tips here if you know how to add this as a support. Also note that it is additional documentation to be found for this tool on the Npmjs.org site and also in the GitHub repository.

The sample screen shot shows how to run the tool from the command line (simple command). I deliberately added an arrow method in a Javascript file and the tool quickly spots this issue. For a medium sized project the tool takes only 5-10 seconds to execute.
