cond-flow

Inspired by Elixir's cond this is a simpler alternative to lodash's _.cond

codecov

Install

Install with npm or yarn via

yarn add cond-flow

or

npm i cond-flow

Usage

import cond from 'cond-flow'

const value = cond([
  [false, 'false'],
  [true, 'true'],
  [true, 'true but too late'],
])

// value === 'true'

Also works nicely with React components as you can have the values lazily evaluated by wrapping them in a function:

import cond from 'cond-flow'

const Component = ({ isDisabled, isNew, isLoading }) => (
  <>
    {cond([
      [isLoading, () => <Loading />],
      [isNew, () => <Create />],
      [isDisabled, null],
    ])}
  </>
)

Default return value

You can provide a default fallback which will be returned if no provided conditions are met.

import cond from 'cond-flow'

const value = cond(
  [
    [false, () => 'false'],
    [false, () => 'also false'],
  ],
  { default: () => 'fallback' },
)

// value === 'fallback'

Note

As all predicates have to be evaluated before the right branch can be chosen, it can have a negative performance impact if you rely on heavy computations. It's best to have simple booleans and resort to Ramda's cond for complex use cases.
