Class Collection<K, V>

A Map with additional utility methods. This is used throughout discord.js rather than Arrays for anything that has an ID, for significantly improved performance and ease-of-use.

Type parameters

  • K

  • V

Hierarchy

  • Map<K, V>
    • Collection

Index

Constructors

  • new Collection<K, V>(entries?: null | readonly readonly [K, V][]): Collection<K, V>
  • new Collection<K, V>(iterable: Iterable<readonly [K, V]>): Collection<K, V>
  • Type parameters

    • K

    • V

    Parameters

    • Optional entries: null | readonly readonly [K, V][]

    Returns Collection<K, V>

  • Type parameters

    • K

    • V

    Parameters

    • iterable: Iterable<readonly [K, V]>

    Returns Collection<K, V>

Properties

[toStringTag]: string
constructor: CollectionConstructor
size: number
[species]: MapConstructor
default: typeof Collection
defaultSort: any

Methods

  • [iterator](): IterableIterator<[K, V]>
  • Returns an iterable of entries in the map.

    Returns IterableIterator<[K, V]>

  • at(index: number): undefined | V
  • Identical to Array.at(). Returns the item at a given index, allowing for positive and negative integers. Negative integers count back from the last item in the collection.

    Parameters

    • index: number

      The index of the element to obtain

    Returns undefined | V

  • clear(): void
  • Returns void

  • Creates an identical shallow copy of this collection.

    example

    const newColl = someColl.clone();

    Returns Collection<K, V>

  • Combines this collection with others into a new collection. None of the source collections are modified.

    example

    const newColl = someColl.concat(someOtherColl, anotherColl, ohBoyAColl);

    Parameters

    • Rest ...collections: Collection<K, V>[]

      Collections to merge

    Returns Collection<K, V>

  • delete(key: K): boolean
  • Parameters

    • key: K

    Returns boolean

  • The difference method returns a new structure containing items where the key is present in one of the original structures but not the other.

    Parameters

    • other: Collection<K, V>

      The other Collection to filter against

    Returns Collection<K, V>

  • Identical to Map.forEach(), but returns the collection instead of undefined.

    example

    collection .each(user => console.log(user.username)) .filter(user => user.bot) .each(user => console.log(user.username));

    Parameters

    • fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => void

      Function to execute for each element

        • (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>): void
        • Parameters

          Returns void

    Returns Collection<K, V>

  • Type parameters

    • T

    Parameters

    • fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => void
        • (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>): void
        • Parameters

          Returns void

    • thisArg: T

    Returns Collection<K, V>

  • ensure(key: K, defaultValueGenerator: (key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => V): V
  • Obtains the value of the given key if it exists, otherwise sets and returns the value provided by the default value generator.

    example

    collection.ensure(guildId, () => defaultGuildConfig);

    Parameters

    • key: K

      The key to get if it exists, or set otherwise

    • defaultValueGenerator: (key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => V

      A function that generates the default value

    Returns V

  • entries(): IterableIterator<[K, V]>
  • Returns an iterable of key, value pairs for every entry in the map.

    Returns IterableIterator<[K, V]>

  • Checks if this collection shares identical items with another. This is different to checking for equality using equal-signs, because the collections may be different objects, but contain the same data.

    Parameters

    • collection: Collection<K, V>

      Collection to compare with

    Returns boolean

    Whether the collections have identical contents

  • every<K2>(fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => key is K2): this is Collection<K2, V>
  • every<V2>(fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => value is V2): this is Collection<K, V2>
  • every(fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => boolean): boolean
  • every<This, K2>(fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => key is K2, thisArg: This): this is Collection<K2, V>

    Parameters

    • fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => boolean

      Function used to test (should return a boolean)

        • (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>): boolean
        • Parameters

          Returns boolean

    Returns boolean

  • Type parameters

    • T

    Parameters

    • fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => boolean
        • (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>): boolean
        • Parameters

          Returns boolean

    • thisArg: T

    Returns boolean

  • sort(compareFunction?: Comparator<K, V>): Collection<K, V>
  • The sort method sorts the items of a collection in place and returns it. The sort is not necessarily stable in Node 10 or older. The default sort order is according to string Unicode code points.

    example

    collection.sort((userA, userB) => userA.createdTimestamp - userB.createdTimestamp);

    Parameters

    • Optional compareFunction: Comparator<K, V>

      Specifies a function that defines the sort order. If omitted, the collection is sorted according to each character's Unicode code point value, according to the string conversion of each element.

    Returns Collection<K, V>

  • sorted(compareFunction?: Comparator<K, V>): Collection<K, V>
  • The sorted method sorts the items of a collection and returns it. The sort is not necessarily stable in Node 10 or older. The default sort order is according to string Unicode code points.

    example

    collection.sorted((userA, userB) => userA.createdTimestamp - userB.createdTimestamp);

    Parameters

    • Optional compareFunction: Comparator<K, V>

      Specifies a function that defines the sort order. If omitted, the collection is sorted according to each character's Unicode code point value, according to the string conversion of each element.

    Returns Collection<K, V>

  • sweep(fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => boolean): number
  • sweep<T>(fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => boolean, thisArg: T): number
  • Removes items that satisfy the provided filter function.

    Parameters

    • fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => boolean

      Function used to test (should return a boolean)

        • (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>): boolean
        • Parameters

          Returns boolean

    Returns number

    The number of removed entries

  • Type parameters

    • T

    Parameters

    • fn: (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>) => boolean
        • (value: V, key: K, collection: Collection<K, V>): boolean
        • Parameters

          Returns boolean

    • thisArg: T

    Returns number

  • Runs a function on the collection and returns the collection.

    example

    collection .tap(coll => console.log(coll.size)) .filter(user => user.bot) .tap(coll => console.log(coll.size))

    Parameters

    Returns Collection<K, V>

  • Type parameters

    • T

    Parameters

    Returns Collection<K, V>

  • toJSON(): V[]
  • Returns V[]

  • values(): IterableIterator<V>
  • Returns an iterable of values in the map

    Returns IterableIterator<V>
