You don't (may not) need Lodash/Underscore

Lodash 和 Underscore 是非常优秀的当代JavaScript的工具集合框架，它们被前端开发者广泛地使用。但是，当我们现在是针对现代化浏览器进行开发时，很多时候我们利用的Underscore中的方法已经被ES5与ES6所支持了，如果我们希望我们的项目尽可能地减少依赖的话，我们可以根据目标浏览器来选择不用Lodash或者Underscore。

I'll admit, I've been guilty of overusing #lodash. Excellent resource.

_.map

将某个列表中的元素映射到新的列表中。

// Underscore/Lodash
VAR array1 = [1, 2, 3];
var array2 = _.map(array1, function(value, index) {
  return value*2;
});
console.log(array2);
// output: [2, 4, 6]

// Native
var array1 = [1, 2, 3];
var array2 = array1.map(function(value, index) {
  return value*2;
});
console.log(array2);
// output: [2, 4, 6]

_.every

测试数组的所有元素是否都通过了指定函数的测试。

// Underscore/Lodash
function isLargerThanTen(element, index, array) {
  return element >=10;
}
var array = [10, 20, 30];
var result = _.every(array, isLargerThanTen);
console.log(result);
// output: true

// Native
function isLargerThanTen(element, index, array) {
  return element >=10;
}

var array = [10, 20, 30];
var result = array.every(isLargerThanTen);
console.log(result);
// output: true

_.some

判断序列中是否存在元素满足给定方程的条件。

// Underscore/Lodash
function isLargerThanTen(element, index, array) {
  return element >=10;
}
var array = [10, 9, 8];
var result = _.some(array, isLargerThanTen);
console.log(result);
// output: true

// Native
function isLargerThanTen(element, index, array) {
  return element >=10;
}

var array = [10, 9, 8];
var result = array.some(isLargerThanTen);
console.log(result);
// output: true

_.reduce

接收一个函数作为累加器（accumulator），数组中的每个值（从左到右）开始缩减，最终为一个值。

// Underscore/Lodash
var array = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
var result = _.reduce(array, function (PReviousValue, currentValue, currentIndex, array) {
  return previousValue + currentValue;
});
console.log(result);
// output: 10

// Native
var array = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
var result = array.reduce(function (previousValue, currentValue, currentIndex, array) {
  return previousValue + currentValue;
});
console.log(result);
// output: 10

_.reduceRight

接受一个函数作为累加器（accumulator），让每个值（从右到左，亦即从尾到头）缩减为一个值。（与 reduce() 的执行方向相反）

// Underscore/Lodash
var array = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
var result = _.reduceRight(array, function (previousValue, currentValue, currentIndex, array) {
  return previousValue - currentValue;
});
console.log(result);
// output: -2

// Native
var array = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4];
var result = array.reduceRight(function (previousValue, currentValue, currentIndex, array) {
  return previousValue - currentValue;
});
console.log(result);
// output: -2

_.filter

使用指定的函数测试所有元素，并创建一个包含所有通过测试的元素的新数组。

// Underscore/Lodash
function isBigEnough(value) {
  return value >= 10;
} 
var array = [12, 5, 8, 130, 44];
var filtered = _.filter(array, isBigEnough);
console.log(filtered);
// output: [12, 130, 44]

// Native
function isBigEnough(value) {
  return value >= 10;
} 
var array = [12, 5, 8, 130, 44];
var filtered = array.filter(isBigEnough);
console.log(filtered);
// output: [12, 130, 44]

_.find

返回数组中满足测试条件的一个元素，如果没有满足条件的元素，则返回 undefined。

// Underscore/Lodash
var users = [
  { 'user': 'barney',  'age': 36, 'active': true },
  { 'user': 'fred',    'age': 40, 'active': false },
  { 'user': 'pebbles', 'age': 1,  'active': true }
];

_.find(users, function(o) { return o.age < 40; });
// output: object for 'barney'

// Native
var users = [
  { 'user': 'barney',  'age': 36, 'active': true },
  { 'user': 'fred',    'age': 40, 'active': false },
  { 'user': 'pebbles', 'age': 1,  'active': true }
];

users.find(function(o) { return o.age < 40; });
// output: object for 'barney'

_.findIndex

用来查找数组中某指定元素的索引, 如果找不到指定的元素, 则返回 -1.

// Underscore/Lodash
var users = [
  { 'user': 'barney',  'age': 36, 'active': true },
  { 'user': 'fred',    'age': 40, 'active': false },
  { 'user': 'pebbles', 'age': 1,  'active': true }

var index =  _.findIndex(users, function(o) { return o.age >= 40; });
console.log(index);
// output: 1

// Native
var users = [
  { 'user': 'barney',  'age': 36, 'active': true },
  { 'user': 'fred',    'age': 40, 'active': false },
  { 'user': 'pebbles', 'age': 1,  'active': true }

_.isNaN

判断是否为NaN

// Underscore/Lodash
console.log(_.isNaN(NaN));
// output: true

// Native
console.log(isNaN(NaN));
// output: true

// ES6
console.log(Number.isNaN(NaN));
// output: true

MDN:

In comparison to the global isNaN() function, Number.isNaN() doesn't suffer the problem of forcefully converting the parameter to a number. This means it is now safe to pass values that would normally convert to NaN, but aren't actually the same value as NaN. This also means that only values of the type number, that are also NaN, return true. Number.isNaN()

Voice from the Lodash author:

Lodash's _.isNaN is equiv to ES6 Number.isNaN which is different than the global isNaN.

_.reverse

// Lodash
var array = [1, 2, 3];
console.log(_.reverse(array));
// output: [3, 2, 1]

// Native
var array = [1, 2, 3];
console.log(array.reverse());
// output: [3, 2, 1]

Voice from the Lodash author:

Lodash's _.reverse just calls Array#reverse and enables composition like _.map(arrays, _.reverse).

It's exposed on _ because previously, like Underscore, it was only exposed in the chaining syntax.
