Installation

Usage

Pipe and compose methods combine functions; calling each function with the output of the last one.

The primary difference is that a pipe is from left-to-right (top-to-bottom), where as compose is right-to-left (bottom-to-top).

pipe

const returnValue = pipe(
    (x) => x + 2,
    (x) => x * 3
)(1);
// returnValue = 9

compose

const returnValue = compose(
    (x) => x + 2,
    (x) => x * 3
)(1);
// returnValue = 5

Async Versions

pipeAsync and composeAsync can be used if any one of the methods in the chain is async or returns a promise.
