Array Walker

Traverses a multi-dimensional array and fires off a callback with a value and its relationship.

Example

let walker = require('array-walker');

// A single-dimensional array
walker(['a', 'b'], (value, key) => console.log(value, key));
// a, 0
// b, 1

// A two-dimensional array
walker([['a', 'b'], ['c', 'd']], (value, x, y) => console.log(value, x, y));
// a, 0, 0
// b, 0, 1
// c, 1, 0
// d, 1, 1

// A 12-dimensional array
walker(
  [[[[[[[[[[[['a', 'b']]]]]], 'c']]]]]],
  (value, ...lineage) => console.log(value, ...lineage)
);
// a, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0
// b, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1
// c, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1
