What is ramda-adjunct?
Ramda-adjunct is a community-maintained extension of the Ramda library, providing additional utility functions that complement Ramda's core functionality. It offers a wide range of functions for data manipulation, validation, and functional programming.
What are ramda-adjunct's main functionalities?
Data Manipulation
The `partitionIndexed` function splits a list into two lists based on a predicate function that takes both the value and the index. This is useful for more complex partitioning logic.
const RA = require('ramda-adjunct');
const R = require('ramda');
const data = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5];
const result = RA.partitionIndexed((val, idx) => idx % 2 === 0, data);
console.log(result); // [[1, 3, 5], [2, 4]]
Validation
The `isNotNilOrEmpty` function checks if a value is neither null nor an empty string, array, or object. This is useful for validation checks in your application.
const RA = require('ramda-adjunct');
const isValid = RA.isNotNilOrEmpty('Hello');
console.log(isValid); // true
Functional Programming
The `curryN` function allows you to curry a function with a specified arity. This is useful for creating more flexible and reusable functions.
const RA = require('ramda-adjunct');
const R = require('ramda');
const add = (a, b, c) => a + b + c;
const curriedAdd = RA.curryN(3, add);
console.log(curriedAdd(1)(2)(3)); // 6
Other packages similar to ramda-adjunct
lodash
Lodash is a popular utility library that provides a wide range of functions for data manipulation, validation, and functional programming. It is more widely used and has a larger community compared to ramda-adjunct.
underscore
Underscore is another utility library similar to Lodash, offering a variety of functions for data manipulation and functional programming. It is older and less feature-rich compared to Lodash but still widely used.
ramda
Ramda is the core library that ramda-adjunct extends. It focuses on functional programming and immutability, providing a set of utility functions for working with data in a functional style.
Ramda Adjunct
Ramda Adjunct is the most popular and most comprehensive set of functional utilities for use with Ramda, providing a variety of useful, well tested functions with excellent documentation.
For a full list of functions see the Documentation For The Latest Release.
Adjunct is a thing added to something else as a supplementary rather than an essential part. And that something is being ramda.

Getting Started
Installation
npm i ramda-adjunct
or
yarn add ramda-adjunct
Usage
ES6
import * as RA from 'ramda-adjunct'
RA.isArray([]);
or
import { isArray } from 'ramda-adjunct';
isArray([]);
Node
const RA = require('ramda-adjunct');
RA.isArray([]);
or
const { isArray } = require('ramda-adjunct');
isArray([]);
Web browser
<script src="ramda.js"></script>
<script src="RA.web.js"></script>
or
<script src="RA.web.standalone.js"></script>
Including Ramda Adjunct into HTML document exposes global variable RA on window
object.
RA.isArray([]);
Motivation
It's very common for people to create their own utils and recipes by composing Ramda's functions and creating more complex aggregate functions. Ramda Adjunct eliminates this repetitive wheel of reinvention and centralizes commonly used and useful utils.
Benefits
1. Centralization
All Ramda recipes and aggregate utils not present in Ramda are centralized here. There is no more need for everybody to create their own utils in their own libraries or in each codebases.
2. Tests
Ramda Adjunct maintains maximal code coverage and mimics Ramda's test patterns. You can trust our functions.
3. Impeccable documentation
You cannot call a library great if it lacks great documentation. Ramda Adjunct generates its documentation directly from its codebase and uses patterns found in both Ramda and Lodash to document its API.

Requirements
- ramda >= 0.29.0
- node >= 0.10.48
Ramda Adjunct is being automatically tested against all LTS and Current Node.js versions.
Legacy builds
We are building our npm distributions using Webpack/Babel to support legacy versions of node starting from 0.10.48.
Although all tests are run against all LTS and Current Node.js versions, we rely on Webpack/Babel to transpile ramda-adjunct into legacy ES5.
It is also possible that our ES5 distributions run on node versions older than 0.10.48 as long as they support ES5.

Builds
$ npm run build:es
If you use a bundler that supports tree shaking and ES2015 imports. package.json
is automatically pre-configured to tell ES2015 import
to import from this directory.
es/*
- ES5 code containing ES2015 imports.
$ npm run build:commonjs
If you use node to import ramda-adjunct. package.json
is automatically pre-configured to tell require
to import from this directory.
lib/*
- ES5 code containing commonjs
imports.
$ npm run build:umd
The command will create three types of bundles.
dist/RA.node.js
- ES5 compliant bundle, running on all node versions.
dist/RA.web.js
- ES5 compliant bundle, running in browsers. Requires ramda.js
to be required before.
dist/RA.web.standalone.js
- ES5 compliant bundle, running in browsers. It has ramda.js
pre-bundled.
You can always find fresh build files in exposed as artifacts of GitHub Actions.
Tree shaking support
Tree shaking is a term commonly used in a JavaScript context for dead-code elimination. It relies on the static structure of ES2015's module syntax, i.e. import
and export
. Ramda Adjunct natively supports tree shaking thanks to the way the code is organized and its use of ES2015 imports.
import * as RA from 'ramda-adjunct';
RA.isArray([]);
import { isArray } from 'ramda-adjunct';
isArray([]);
These two statements are equivalent and only isArray
should be incorporated into your bundle. You can pick and choose the functions you need without worrying about the whole library being included in your build.
Assimilated libraries
- rcb - Ramda Cookbook implementation
Typescript support
Although Ramda Adjunct is written in ES2016, we also support Typescript. When Ramda Adjunct gets imported into a Typescript project, typings are automatically imported and used.
