tagged-operator [alpha]

Simulate operator overloading with Tagged templates

Installation

npm i tagged-operator

Usage

• simple to use

import { createPipeTag } from 'tagged-operator'

const operator = (type, val1, val2) => {
  if (type === '~') {
    return (val1 + val2) * (val2 + 1 - val1) / 2
  }
}
const calc = createPipeTag({ operator })

console.log(calc`${1} ~ ${100}`) // 5050
console.log(calc`${23} ~ ${86}`) // 3488

• use by class, eg Coordinate

const a = new Coordinate(100, 100)
const b = new Coordinate(0, 200)

// a * 3 - b
console.log(a.calc`${a} * ${3} - ${b}`) // Coordinate { x: 300, y: 100 }

• use with TypeScript

import { createTag, Precedence, Operator } from 'tagged-operator'

const precedence: Precedence = { 1: ['*', '/'] }
const operator: Operator<string | number, string> = (type, val1, val2) => {
  switch (type) {
    case '+':
      return String(val1) + String(val2)
    case '-':
      return String(val1).replace(String(val2), '')
    case '*':
      if (typeof val1 === 'number' && typeof val2 === 'string') {
        return val2.repeat(val1)
      } else {
        return String(val1).repeat(+val2)
      }
    case '/':
      return String(val1).replaceAll(String(val2), '')
    default:
      console.warn(`no operator configured: ${type}`)
      return String(val1)
  }
}
const calc = createTag({ operator, precedence })

console.log(calc`${'Hello'} + ${' World!'}`) // Hello World!
console.log(calc`${'Hello'} * ${3}`) // HelloHelloHello
console.log(calc`(${'Hello'} + ${' World!'}) / ${'l'} - ${'!'}`) // Heo Word

config

type

• Type: default | precedence | pipe
• Default: default

how to calculate (for the class TaggedOperator)

• default - the config operator precedence information and grouping operators ().
• precedence - just used the config operator precedence information.
• pipe - executes sequentially.

operator

• Required: true
• Type: Function(type, val1, val2)

How the match operator is evaluated

• type - current operator (Note: prohibited to use ( and ) when use function createTag)
• val1 - the value to the left of the current operator
• val2 - the value to the right of the current operator

precedence

• Type: object

Configure operator precedence information.

The larger the key, the higher the precedence. For performance reasons, you should only config operators that need to be evaluated first.

eg:

const precedence = {
  2: ['^'],
  1: ['*', '/'],
}

Function

TaggedOperator

Create a tagged calculator through class

createTag

Create a tagged calculator that executes with precedence and grouping operators ().

createPrecedenceTag

Create a tagged calculator that only includes precedence information, without grouping operators ()

createPipeTag

Create a tagged calculator that executes sequentially
