join util #13

Description

@tfga

I'd like to propose a new join util.

The idea is simple: it calls foreach(str) before calling str.join. So, whenever you have something like

| foreach(str)
| ', '.join

you can replace it with

| join(', ')

You can customize the string conversion by passing either a function or a format string as the second parameter, e.g.:

| join(', ', lambda x: '-{}-'.format(x))        # function
| join(', ', '-{}-')                            # fmt string

Implementation

def join(delim, formatter=str):
    '''
    join(' ')
    join(' ', fmtFn)
    join(' ', fmtString)
    '''
    
    return foreach(formatter) | delim.join

Tests

def test_join(self):
    
    r = [1, 2, 3] > (pipe
                    | join(', ')
                    )
    
    self.assertEquals(r, '1, 2, 3')
    
    
def test_join_with_formatter(self):
    
    r = [1, 2, 3] > (pipe
                    | join(', ', lambda x: '-{}-'.format(x))
                    )
    
    self.assertEquals(r, '-1-, -2-, -3-')
    
    
def test_join_with_fmtString(self):
    
    r = [1, 2, 3] > (pipe
                    | join(', ', '-{}-')
                    )
    
    self.assertEquals(r, '-1-, -2-, -3-')
