NIST Misses 2024 Deadline to Clear NVD Backlog
NIST has failed to meet its self-imposed deadline of clearing the NVD's backlog by the end of the fiscal year. Meanwhile, CVE's awaiting analysis have increased by 33% since June.
@thi.ng/checks
Advanced tools
@thi.ng/checks is a utility library for various type checks and predicates in JavaScript. It provides a wide range of functions to check types, values, and conditions, making it easier to validate data and ensure code correctness.
Type Checks
This feature allows you to check the type of a given value. The `isString` function checks if the value is a string, and the `isNumber` function checks if the value is a number.
const { isString, isNumber } = require('@thi.ng/checks');
console.log(isString('hello')); // true
console.log(isNumber(123)); // true
console.log(isNumber('123')); // false
Array Checks
This feature provides functions to check if a value is an array and if an array is empty. The `isArray` function checks if the value is an array, and the `isEmptyArray` function checks if the array is empty.
const { isArray, isEmptyArray } = require('@thi.ng/checks');
console.log(isArray([1, 2, 3])); // true
console.log(isEmptyArray([])); // true
console.log(isEmptyArray([1])); // false
Object Checks
This feature includes functions to check if a value is an object and if an object is empty. The `isObject` function checks if the value is an object, and the `isEmptyObject` function checks if the object is empty.
const { isObject, isEmptyObject } = require('@thi.ng/checks');
console.log(isObject({ a: 1 })); // true
console.log(isEmptyObject({})); // true
console.log(isEmptyObject({ a: 1 })); // false
Function Checks
This feature provides a function to check if a value is a function. The `isFunction` function checks if the value is a function.
const { isFunction } = require('@thi.ng/checks');
console.log(isFunction(function() {})); // true
console.log(isFunction(() => {})); // true
console.log(isFunction(123)); // false
String Checks
This feature includes functions to check if a value is a string and if a string is empty. The `isString` function checks if the value is a string, and the `isEmptyString` function checks if the string is empty.
const { isString, isEmptyString } = require('@thi.ng/checks');
console.log(isString('hello')); // true
console.log(isEmptyString('')); // true
console.log(isEmptyString('hello')); // false
Lodash is a modern JavaScript utility library delivering modularity, performance, and extras. It provides a wide range of utility functions for common programming tasks, including type checks, which are similar to those provided by @thi.ng/checks.
Ramda is a practical functional library for JavaScript programmers. It provides utility functions for functional programming, including type checks and predicates, similar to @thi.ng/checks.
Validator is a library for string validation and sanitization. While it focuses more on string validation, it also provides some type-checking functions similar to those in @thi.ng/checks.
Check-types is a library for checking types and conditions in JavaScript. It provides a similar range of type-checking functions as @thi.ng/checks, making it a good alternative.
This project is part of the @thi.ng/umbrella monorepo and anti-framework.
