# What is ts-map? it is a Map structure like ES6 Map. Map is similar to the object, but also a set of key-value pairs, but the "key" range is not limited to strings, various types of values (including objects) can be used as a key. # Installation ```bash npm install ts-map ``` # Usage use in typescript file ```typescript import TsMap from 'ts-map' const map = new TsMap() const k1: number = 1 const k2: number[] = [2] const k3: boolean = true map.set(1, "hello") map.set(k2, "ts").set(k3, "map") map.get(1) // "hello" map.get(k2) // "world" map.size // 3 map.keys() // [1, [2], true] map.values() // ["hello", "ts", "map"] map.forEach((value, key, map) => { console.log(key, ':', value) }) // 1 ':' 'hello' // [ 2 ] ':' 'ts' // true ':' 'map' ``` # Getting started ## Constructor with parameter You can pass in the default parameters in the constructor: ```typescript const map = new TsMap([ [1, "ok"], [2, "fail"] ]) console.log(map.get(1)) // ok ``` ## Class generic support define generic for ts-map ```typescript interface Coder { name: string } const map = new TsMap([ [1, {name: 'lavyun'}] ]) map.set(2, {name: "tom"}) // work map.set(3, "jack") // sorry, error ``` If you do not define generics, but in the constructor passed in the parameters, you also need follow the generic rules.If you do not use generics, you can set any type of key-value pairs for the map. ## API ### size: number return the Map's size ```typescript const map = new TsMap([ [1, {name: 'lavyun'}] ]) map.set(2, {name: "tom"}) map.size // 2 ``` ### set(k: K, v: V): TsMapInter set a key-value to Map, support chain called. ```ts map.set(true, "1") map.set(1, "hello").set(2, "world") ``` Notice: Only the reference to the same object, Map structure will be regarded as the same key. ```ts const k = ["1"] map.set(k, "hello") map.get(k) // hello map.get(["1"]) // undefind ``` If the same key is assigned multiple times, the following value will overwrite the previous value. ```ts map.set(1, "111").set(1, "222") map.get(1) // 222 ``` ### get(k: K): V | undefined Return the value of the corresponding key,if dosn't include, return undefind. ```ts map.set(1, "111") map.get(1) // 111 map.get(2) // undefind ``` ### has(k: K): boolean Determine if a key is included. ```ts map.set(1, "111") map.has(1) // true map.has(2) // false ``` ### delete(k: k): boolean Delete all the corresponding keys and its value, if detele success, return true. else return false. ```ts map.set(1, "111") map.set(2, "222") map.delete(1) map.has(1) //false mao.size // 1 ``` ### clear(): void Delete all key-value from the Map. ```ts map.set(1, "111") map.set(2, "222") map.size // 2 map.clear() map.size // 0 ``` ### keys(): K[] return all Map's key. ```ts map.set(1, 2) map.set(true, false) map.set(["1"], {name: 'lavyun'}) map.keys() // [1, true, ["1"]] ``` ### values(): V[] return all Map's value. ```ts map.set(1, 2) map.set(true, false) map.set(["1"], {name: 'lavyun'}) map.values() // [2, false, 'lavyun'] ``` ### entries(): Array<[K, V]> return all Map's key-value. ```ts map.set(1, 2) map.set(true, false) map.set(["1"], {name: 'lavyun'}) map.entries() /* [ [1, 2], [true, false], [["1"], {name: 'lavyun'}] ] */ ``` ### forEach(cb, context?: any): void Traversal the Map.Accept two parameters, first is a callback, second is a optional context. callback function accepts 3 optional params,first is value, second is key, last is the map. ```ts map.set(1, "111").set(2. "222") map.forEach((value, key, map) => { console.log(key, '-', value) }) // 1 - '111' // 2 - '222' ``` You can pass the second param to set the callback's context ```ts const person = { name: 'lavyun' } map.set(1, "111").set(2. "222") map.forEach((value, key, map) => { console.log(key, '-', value, '-', this.name) }, person) // 1 - '111' - 'lavyun' // 2 - '222' - 'lavyun' ``` ## Licence MIT LICENCE
