is-any-array
Advanced tools
The is-any-array npm package is a utility that helps determine if a given value is an array. It is particularly useful in scenarios where you need to validate input types or ensure that certain operations are performed on arrays.
Basic Array Check
This feature allows you to check if a given value is an array. It returns true if the value is an array and false otherwise.
const isAnyArray = require('is-any-array');
console.log(isAnyArray([1, 2, 3])); // true
console.log(isAnyArray('not an array')); // falseArray-like Objects Check
This feature extends the basic array check to include array-like objects such as typed arrays. It helps in identifying more complex array structures.
const isAnyArray = require('is-any-array');
console.log(isAnyArray({ length: 0 })); // false
console.log(isAnyArray(new Int8Array(2))); // trueThe is-array package provides a simple utility to check if a value is an array. It is similar to is-any-array but does not support array-like objects such as typed arrays.
The lodash.isarray package is a part of the Lodash library that specifically checks if a value is an array. It offers similar functionality to is-any-array but is part of a larger utility library.
The arrayify package converts a value to an array if it is not already one. While it doesn't directly check if a value is an array, it ensures that the value can be safely used as an array, providing a different approach to handling array-like values.
Check if a value is any kind of array.
$ npm install is-any-array
const {isAnyArray} = require('is-any-array');
isAnyArray(1); // false
isAnyArray('ab'); // false
isAnyArray({ a: 1 }); // false
isAnyArray([1, 2, 3]); // true
isAnyArray(new Uint16Array(2))) // true;
