Yeah. The abundance of comments that take the article at face value makes me pause. I assumed it was satire.
Hey cool! I've been wanting something like this for a while.
Would it be able to take multiple inputs?
Agreed —
seeinglogic's article made me think of a 3rd option:
1. Sorta long functional chain where the type changes partway through 2. Use temp variables 3. (New option) Use comments
(Here's funcA from seeinglogic's article, but I added 3 comments)
function funcC(graph) {
return
// target node
graph.nodes(`node[name = ${name}]`)
// neighbor nodes
.connected()
.nodes()
// visible names
.not('.hidden')
.data('name');
}
Compare to funcB which uses temp variables: function funcB(graph) {
const targetNode = graph.nodes(`node[name = ${name}]`)
const neighborNodes = targetNode.connected().nodes();
const visibleNames = neighborNodes.not('.hidden').data('name')
return visibleNames;
}
For me the commented version is easier to read and audit and it also feels safer for some reason, but I'm not how subjective that is.I do miss 2 features from LiveScript:
1. `wxyz = [ 2 8 -5 5 ]` (commas optional for non callables)
2. `console.log \hello` (backslash strings)
Don't know how hard/compatible #1 is, but for #2 I had a tested PR that I could bring around.
(#3 was bulleted lists, but you already added that!)
This is awesome. Thanks for making it.
