Collect.js unlessNotEmpty() Function

0 0 1 minute read

Collect.js is a fluent and convenient wrapper for working with arrays and objects. The unlessNotEmpty() function executes the callback function when the collection is empty.

Installation: Install the Collect.js module using the following command:

npm install --save collect.js

Syntax:

collection.unlessNotEmpty(callback)

Parameters: This function takes only one parameter i.e. the callback function which executes if the collection is empty.

Return Value: This function returns the new collection object.

Example 1: Filename-index.js

Javascript

// Requiring module
const collect = require('collect.js')
 
// User defined collection
var myCollection = []
 
// Creating collection object
const collection = collect(myCollection);
 
// Callback execution since collection object is empty
collection.unlessNotEmpty(item => item.push(1));
 
// Printing collection
console.log(collection.all());

Run the index.js file using the following command:

node index.js

Output:

[ 1 ]

Example 2: Filename-index.js

Javascript

// Requiring module
const collect = require('collect.js')
 
// User defined collection
var myCollection = [1, 2, 3]
 
// Creating collection object
const collection = collect(myCollection);
 
// No callback execution since 
// collection is not empty
collection.unlessNotEmpty((item) => {
  item.push(4)
  item.push(5)
});
 
// Printing collection
console.log(collection.all());

Run the index.js file using the following command:

node index.js

Output:

[ 1, 2, 3]
