This package contains generalized functional helpers and functional helpers specific to Solana application components. It can be used standalone, but it is also exported as part of Kit @solana/kit

A pipeline is a solution that allows you to perform successive transforms of a value using functions. This is useful when building up a transaction message.
Until the pipeline operator becomes part of JavaScript you can use this utility to create pipelines.
const add = (a, b) => a + b;
const add10 = x => add(x, 10);
const add100 = x => add(x, 100);
const sum = pipe(1, add10, add100);
sum === 111; // true
const transferTransactionMessage = pipe(
// The result of the first expression...
createTransactionMessage({ version: 0 }),
// ...gets passed as the sole argument to the next function in the pipeline.
tx => setTransactionMessageFeePayer(myAddress, tx),
// The return value of that function gets passed to the next...
tx => setTransactionMessageLifetimeUsingBlockhash(latestBlockhash, tx),
// ...and so on.
tx => appendTransactionMessageInstruction(getTransferSolInstruction({ source, destination, amount }), tx),
);
