experimental poset module
Poset is an abstraction that fits neatly over trees, lists, and sets.
The goal for this module is to create a simple API that can be used to mainpulate all of the above.
included so far, is ./fs.js and ./object.js
which adapt this module for operating on fs trees,
and js objects.
There are many other possibilities, such as HTMLElements, git commits, and many others.
thanks to @jez0990 for introducing me to posets!
Experimental: Expect the unexpected. Please provide feedback on api and your use-case.
return a subposet of the poset that matches a property
example: tree of directories
poset(fs).filter(function (e) {return e.isDirectory()})tree of objects
poset(obj).filter(function (e) {return e && 'object' === typeof e})//depth first
poset(fs).depthFirst(function (item) {...})
//width first
poset(fs).widthFirst(function (item) {...})
//leaves first
poset(fs).topological(function (item) {...})
//ancestors
poset(fs).ancestors(function (item) {...})
//bottom most ancestors
poset(fs).roots(function (item) {...})item1.gt(item2)
item1.decendentOf(item2)
item1.ancestorOf(item2)
item1.concestor(item2)MIT
