About

Installation

haxelib git zame-miscutils https://github.com/restorer/zame-haxe-miscutils.git

DynamicExt

Allow use Dynamic values like Map.

var node = new DynamicExt();

node["foo"] = "bar";
trace(node["foo"]);

trace(node.exists("foo"));
trace(node.exists("bar"));

node["bar"] = "baz";
trace(node.keys());

node.remove("foo");
trace(node.keys());

DynamicTools

Along with DynamicExt allows to parse json in a safe manner.

import org.zamedev.lib.DynamicExt;
using org.zamedev.lib.DynamicTools;

var node : DynamicExt = haxe.Json.parse('{"a":{"b":"c"},"stringval":"haxe","arrayval":["haxe","cool"],"intval":42,"floatval":24.42,"boolval":true}');
trace(node["stringval"].asString());
trace(node["arrayval"].asArray());
trace(node["intval"].asInt());
trace(node["floatval"].asFloat());
trace(node["boolval"].asBool());
trace(node["nonexisting"].asString("defaultvalue"));
trace(node["nonexisting"].asNullInt());
trace(node["nonexisting"].asNullFloat());
trace(node["nonexisting"].asDynamic());
trace(node.byPath(["a", "b"]).asString()); // Returns "c"

LambdaExt

Can be used as drop-in replacement of Lambda when you need to work with an Iterator (you should still use original Lambda for an Iterable).

var map = new Map<String, String>();
map["foo"] = "bar";
map["bar"] = "baz";

var result1 : Array<String> = map.keys().array();
trace(result1);

var result2 : Array<String> = map.keys().map(function(v) { return v.toUpperCase(); });
trace(result2);

XmlExt

Allows to get inner text from xml node in an easy way.

var root = Xml.parse("<root><node>inner value</node><node /></root>");

for (node in root.firstElement().elements()) {
    trace(node.innerText("defaultvalue"));
}

UrlLoaderExt (for openfl)

Simplify work with json-based server API.

var loader = new UrlLoaderExt(function(loader : UrlLoaderExt) {
    trace("success");
    trace(loader.data);
}, function(_) {
    trace("error happened");
});

loader.load(UrlLoaderExt.createJsonRequest("http://domain.tld", { foo:"bar" }));

Product support

This library is finished. Later I have plant to merge several smaller libraries into bigger one.
