import { chonk, chonkAsync } from 'chonkify';
// Basic examples
chonk([1, 2, 3, 4], 2); // [[1, 2], [3, 4]]
chonk('abcdef', 2); // ['ab', 'cd', 'ef']
// Unicode emoji support
chonk('👍👌✌️😀', 2); // ['👍👌', '✌️😀']
chonk('👨👩👧👦🏳️🌈', 1); // ['👨👩👧👦', '🏳️🌈']
// Async usage:
for await (const group of chonkAsync(fetchLines(), 100)) {
console.log(group);
}
Splits an iterable into groups of the specified size.
chonk([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 2); // [[1, 2], [3, 4], [5]]
Asynchronously splits an iterable into groups of the specified size.
// Process large datasets in batches
for await (const batch of chonkAsync(dataStream, 100)) {
await processBatch(batch);
}
Yes, chonkify works both in browsers and Node.js environments.
Yes, chonkify can handle nested data structures as it groups elements without transforming them.
