# funcy-chain

Simple Python data processing using method-chaining style and the funcy library.

```pycon
>>> users = [
...   { 'first_name': 'barney',  'age': 36 },
...   { 'first_name': 'fred',    'age': 40 },
...   { 'first_name': 'pebbles', 'age': 1 }
... ]
>>> (Chain(users)
...     .sort(key=itemgetter("age"))
...     .map(itemgetter("first_name"))
...     .thru(lambda names: names + ["wilma"])
...     .map(str.capitalize)
... ).value
['Pebbles', 'Barney', 'Fred', 'Wilma']
```


# Why?

* Method chaining can make some multi-stage data processing easier to read and write.
* [Funcy](https://github.com/Suor/funcy) is great, but doesn't support method chaining.
* Other method-chaining implementations have too much "magic", are overly complex, and support too many
  ways of doing one thing. (see: [pydash](https://pydash.readthedocs.io/en/latest/chaining.html),
  [fluentpy](https://fluentpy.readthedocs.io/en/latest/fluentpy/fluentpy.html))
* Being simple and straightforward is a great boon, making it easier to reason about code, debug,
  etc.


# Key Features

* Useful out of the box, supporting built-in, stdlib and funcy functions (see [below](#supported-methods)).
* Easy to compose with additional utilities (see `Chain.thru()`).
* Both "immediate" (list-based) and "lazy" (iterator-based) computations supported,
  via parallel `Chain` and `IterChain` classes.

```pycon
>>> from funcy_chain import Chain
>>> (Chain([1, 2, 3, 7, 6, 5, 4])
...     .without(3)
...     .filter(lambda x: x > 2)
...     .remove(lambda x: x > 6)
...     .sort(reverse=True)
... ).value
[6, 5, 4]
```


# Supported Methods

## built-in

* [enumerate](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#enumerate)
* [max](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#max)
* [min](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#min)
* [reduce](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#reduce)
* [reverse](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#reverse)
* [slice](https://docs.python.org/3/library/itertools.html#itertools.islice)
* [sort](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#sort)
* [sum](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#sum)
* [zip](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#zip)
* [dict.items](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict.items)
* [dict.keys](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict.keys)
* [dict.values](https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#dict.values)
