Usage Guide

Using fn-pasta functions

Using fn-pasta functions in your project is simple. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Finding functions

  1. Browse the categories in the sidebar
  2. Click on a category to see all related functions
  3. Read through the descriptions to find the function you need

Understanding functions

Each function page includes:

  • Description of what the function does
  • TypeScript type signature
  • Parameters and return type explanation
  • Example usage
  • Implementation code

Copying functions

  1. Click the copy button next to the function code
  2. Paste the code directly into your project file
  3. Use the function as shown in the examples

Example

Let’s say you need a function to deep clone an object. You would:

  1. Navigate to the Object functions category
  2. Find the deepClone function
  3. Click the copy button
  4. Paste into your project:
/**
* Creates a deep clone of an object or array
* @param obj - The object to clone
* @returns A deep clone of the original object
*/
function deepClone<T>(obj: T): T {
if (obj === null || typeof obj !== 'object') {
return obj;
}
if (Array.isArray(obj)) {
return obj.map(item => deepClone(item)) as unknown as T;
}
const result = {} as T;
for (const key in obj) {
if (Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty.call(obj, key)) {
result[key] = deepClone(obj[key]);
}
}
return result;
}
  1. Use it in your code:
const originalObject = {
name: 'John',
settings: { theme: 'dark', notifications: true },
tags: ['important', 'new']
};
const clonedObject = deepClone(originalObject);

Best practices

  • Consider adding comments or attributing the function to fn-pasta
  • Review the function before using to ensure it meets your needs
  • Modify the function if necessary for your specific use case
  • Add tests for the function in your project’s test suite
