The Changelog Podcast: Practical Steps to Stay Safe on npm
Learn the essential steps every developer should take to stay secure on npm and reduce exposure to supply chain attacks.
The Lodash library exported as Node.js modules.
Using npm:
$ npm i -g npm
$ npm i --save lodash
In Node.js:
// Load the full build.
var _ = require('lodash');
// Load the core build.
var _ = require('lodash/core');
// Load the FP build for immutable auto-curried iteratee-first data-last methods.
var fp = require('lodash/fp');
// Load method categories.
var array = require('lodash/array');
var object = require('lodash/fp/object');
// Cherry-pick methods for smaller browserify/rollup/webpack bundles.
var at = require('lodash/at');
var curryN = require('lodash/fp/curryN');
See the package source for more details.
Note:
Install n_ for Lodash use in the Node.js < 6 REPL.
Tested in Chrome 74-75, Firefox 66-67, IE 11, Edge 18, Safari 11-12, & Node.js 8-12.
Automated browser & CI test runs are available.
Underscore is a utility library with similar functionality to Lodash, offering a range of functions for manipulating arrays, objects, and functions. It is generally considered to be the predecessor to Lodash, which provides a superset of Underscore's features with additional performance optimizations.
Ramda is a functional programming library that emphasizes a more functional and composable approach compared to Lodash. It provides similar utilities but focuses on immutability and side-effect free functions, which can lead to a different programming style.
Immutable.js offers a different take on data manipulation by providing persistent immutable data structures. Unlike Lodash, which works with standard JavaScript objects and arrays, Immutable.js uses its own data structures, which can lead to better performance and easier reasoning about state changes in certain applications.
