"Helferlein" is german and means: Small Helper
This javascript package contains a number of helper functions and their typescript definitions. Not all implementations are written by us; all external, included code is annotated with it's source.
All helpers should be able to run in a node.js context, as well as in the browser and even a SSR context without any issues.
Install this package using npm:
npm install @labor-digital/helferlein
This package is designed to run in a typescript application and not directly in the browser. A common usecase would look like:
import {asArray} from "@labor-digital/helferlein/lib/FormatAndConvert/asArray";
const objectAsArray = asArray({'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'd': 3, 'e': 'asdf'});
As you see in the import statement we did not add a "main" file to avoid overhead for bundlers that don't support treeshaking out of the box.
However, if you want to use the library in your browser, without typescript you can use the precompiled javascript files in the "lib.browser" directory.
You can simply import any file in your html and and access the helper functions using Helferlein.asArray() in your javascript.
The documentation / API can be found here but is also rendered at "./doc/index.html" for local usage
