contents

• get contents(): V[]

  Return an Array of all the entry values in the Collection

  Returns V[]

documentName

• get documentName(): string | void

  The Document name of Documents stored in this collection.

  Returns string | void

documentsByType

• get documentsByType(): Record<
      string,

  >

  This collection's contents grouped by subtype, lazily (re-)computed as needed. If the document type does not support subtypes, all will be in the "base" group.

[iterator]

• "[iterator]"(): MapIterator<any>

  Then iterating over a Collection, we should iterate over its values instead of over its entries

      data: object,
      context?: DocumentConstructionContext,
  ): Document<object, DocumentConstructionContext>

  Instantiate a Document for inclusion in the Collection.

  Parameters

  • data: object

    The Document data.
  • Optionalcontext: DocumentConstructionContext = {}

    Document creation context.

  Returns Document<object, DocumentConstructionContext>

    • OptionalmodifySource?: boolean

      Whether to modify the collection's source as part of the operation.

  Returns boolean

filter

• filter(condition: (arg0: any, arg1: number, arg2: Collection) => boolean): any[]

  Filter the Collection, returning an Array of entries which match a functional condition.

  Parameters

  • condition: (arg0: any, arg1: number, arg2: Collection) => boolean

    The functional condition to test. Positional arguments are the value, the index of iteration, and the collection being filtered.

  Returns any[]

  An Array of matched values

  See

  Example: Filter the Collection for specific entries

  let c = new Collection([["a", "AA"], ["b", "AB"], ["c", "CC"]]);

find

• find(condition: (arg0: any, arg1: number, arg2: Collection) => boolean): any

  Find an entry in the Map using a functional condition.

  Parameters

  • condition: (arg0: any, arg1: number, arg2: Collection) => boolean

    The functional condition to test. Positional arguments are the value, the index of iteration, and the collection being searched.

  Returns any

  The value, if found, otherwise undefined

  See

  Example: Create a new Collection and reference its contents

  let c = new Collection([["a", "A"], ["b", "B"], ["c", "C"]]);
  c.get("a") === c.find(entry => entry === "A"); // true
  Copy

forEach

• forEach(fn: (arg0: any) => void): void

  Apply a function to each element of the collection

  Parameters

  • fn: (arg0: any) => void

    A function to apply to each element

  Returns void

  See

  Array#forEach

  Example: Apply a function to each value in the collection

  let c = new Collection([["a", {active: false}], ["b", {active: false}], ["c", {active: false}]]);
  c.forEach(e => e.active = true);
  Copy

get

• get(
      id: string,
      options?: { invalid?: boolean; strict?: boolean },
  ): Document<object, DocumentConstructionContext>

  Get an element from the EmbeddedCollection by its ID.

  Parameters

  • id: string

    The ID of the Embedded Document to retrieve.
  • Optionaloptions: { invalid?: boolean; strict?: boolean } = {}

    Additional options to configure retrieval.

    • Optionalinvalid?: boolean

      Allow retrieving an invalid Embedded Document.

    • Optionalstrict?: boolean

      Throw an Error if the requested Embedded Document does not exist.

  Returns Document<object, DocumentConstructionContext>

  The retrieved document instance, or undefined

  Throws

  If strict is true and the Embedded Document cannot be found.

getInvalid

• getInvalid(
      id: string,
      options?: { strict?: boolean },
  ): Document<object, DocumentConstructionContext>

  Obtain a temporary Document instance for a document id which currently has invalid source data.

  Parameters

  • id: string

    A document ID with invalid source data.
  • Optionaloptions: { strict?: boolean } = {}

    Additional options to configure retrieval.

    • Optionalstrict?: boolean

      Throw an Error if the requested ID is not in the set of invalid IDs for this collection.

  Returns Document<object, DocumentConstructionContext>

  An in-memory instance for the invalid Document

  Throws

  If strict is true and the requested ID is not in the set of invalid IDs for this collection.

getName

• getName(name: string, options?: { strict?: boolean }): any

  Get an entry from the Collection by name. Use of this method assumes that the objects stored in the collection have a "name" attribute.

  Parameters

  • name: string

    The name of the entry to retrieve
  • Optionaloptions: { strict?: boolean } = {}

    Additional options that affect how entries are retrieved

    • Optionalstrict?: boolean

      Throw an Error if the requested name does not exist. Default false.

  Returns any

  The retrieved entry value, if one was found, otherwise undefined

  Example: Get an element from the Collection by name (if applicable)

  let c = new Collection([["a", "Alfred"], ["b", "Bob"], ["c", "Cynthia"]]);
  c.getName("Alfred"); // "Alfred"
  c.getName("D"); // undefined
  c.getName("D", {strict: true}); // throws Error
  Copy

initialize

• initialize(options?: DocumentConstructionContext): void

  Initialize the EmbeddedCollection by synchronizing its Document instances with existing _source data. Importantly, this method does not make any modifications to the _source array. It is responsible for creating, updating, or removing Documents from the Collection.
