Function flow

Similar to pipe, except that it returns a function which takes as its parameter the initial value for the pipe in order to support point-free style. Though point-free style can make for concise code, be aware that type-inference for flow may be less robust than for pipe due to its data-last form.

Remarks

The implementation contains types to support up to twelve transformations. All overload signatures follow the same pattern as the representative form shown here.

Example

import { flow } from "flurp";
import * as N from "flurp/number";

const applyPipe = flow(
  N.multiply(2),     // 6 so far
  N.ad(4.2),         // 10.2 so far
  Math.round
);

applyPipe(3)         // 10
