ampersand-collection-lodash-mixin

ampersand-collection-lodash-mixin

A mixin for extending ampersand-collection with lodash methods. This is a fork of ampersand-collection-underscore-mixin.

If you're using an ampersand-rest-collection this is already mixed in for you.

Out of the box, ampersand-collections proxy the ES5 iteration methods already so you don't have to use this mixin, but if you want all the lodash methods, or better browser support, you can use this.

install

npm install ampersand-collection-lodash-mixin

example

var Collection = require('ampersand-collection');
var underscoreMixin = require('ampersand-collection-lodash-mixin');


module.exports = Collection.extend(underscoreMixin, {
    sampleMethod: function () {
        // now we've got lodash methods 
        // we can call that are applied to models
        // in the collection.
        this.filter( ... );
        this.some( ... );
        this.each( ... )
    }
});
