FnService - Function Service

FnService is an Angular Factory in the Util module with the name fn.js. It provides general purpose functions that are useful throughout the client-side application. To use these functions, see the documentation on injecting Angular services.

Note: some of these functions are repeats of jQuery functions. Since we are not using jQuery, we wrote our own implementations.

NameSummary
isFChecks if argument is a function.
isAChecks if argument is an array.
isS

Checks if argument is a string.

isOChecks if argument is an object.
containsChecks if an array contains a value.
areFunctionsChecks if given strings are names of functions on an API and whether the API has functions that are not listed.
areFunctionsNonStrictChecks if given strings are names of functions on an API. (Doesn't care about unlisted functions.)
windowSizeReturns inner dimensions of the window minus given values.
isMobileReturns true if the device viewing the GUI is a mobile device.
debugOnReturns true if the debug flag is turned on in query params.
findSearches through an array of objects looking for the object with a specific property name and property value and returns its index.
inArrayFinds an item's index in the array.
removeFromArrayRemoves the first occurrence of the specified item from the array.
isEmptyObjectReturns true if the object is empty (has no non-default properties).
capReturns the given string with only the first letter capitalized.
noPxReturn the argument without the 'px' suffix.
noPxStyle

Return the element's style property without the 'px' suffix.

endsWithChecks if the given string ends with a given suffix.
parseBitRateReturns a Number version of the given string bit rate.

 

Function Descriptions

Note: Green Text means that the return value is truthy. Red Text means that the return value is falsy.

isF

Short for "is Function". Checks if argument is a function.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.isF(f);f - the variable to check if it is a function

f if typeof is 'function'

null if f is not a function

isA

Short for "is Array". Checks if argument is an array.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.isA(a);a - the variable to check if it is an array

a if isArray (ECMA5) returns true

null if a is not an array

isS

Short for "is String". Checks if argument is a string.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.isS(s);s - the variable to check if it is a string

 s if typeof is 'string'

null if s is not a string

isO

Short for "is Object". Checks if argument is an object.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.isO(o);o - the variable to check if it is an object

o if typeof is 'object' and the constructor is Object

null if o is not an object

contains

Checks if an array contains an item.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.contains(ax);

a - the array to search

x - the item to look for

the index of x if it is in a (the index may be 0 – not truthy!)

false if a isn't an array

-1 if x isn't in the array

areFunctions

Checks if given strings are names of functions on an API and whether the API has functions that are not listed. This is used for unit testing.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.areFunctions(api, fnNames);

api: the factory API object to check

fnNames: an array of strings of function names that should be on the API

true if

  • fnNames given are names of functions on api 
  • api only contains the functions in fnNames

false if

  • fnNames isn't an array
  • if there are names in fnNames that api doesn't have
  • api has functions not accounted for in fnNames

 

areFunctionsNonStrict

Checks if given strings are names of functions on an API. This function is similar to areFunctions, but doesn't care about unlisted functions.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.areFunctionsNonStrict(api, fnNames);

api: the factory API object to check

fnNames: an array of strings of function names that should be on the API

true if

  • fnNames given are names of functions on api 

false if

  • fnNames isn't an array
  • if there are names in fnNames that api doesn't have

windowSize

Returns inner dimensions of the browser window minus given values.

Example UsageArgumentsDefault ParamsReturn Value
fs.windowSize(offH, offW);

offH - number value to be subtracted from the browser window height

offW - number value to be subtracted from the browser window width

offH: 0 (if offH is falsy)

offV: 0 (if offW is falsy)

an object with members:

  • height: window inner height minus offH (if given)
  • width: window inner width minus offW (if given)

isMobile

Returns true if the device viewing the GUI is a mobile device.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.isMobile();none

true if the device viewing the GUI is a mobile device

false otherwise

debugOn

Returns true if the debug flag is turned on in query params.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.debugOn(tag);tag: string of which debug flag you are looking for

true if debug flag is turned on for tag

undefined otherwise

find

Searches through an array of objects looking for the object with a specific property name (tag) and property value (key) and returns its index.

Example UsageArgumentsDefault ParamsReturn Values
fs.find(key, array, tag);

key: property value you are searching for

array: array of objects to search through

tag: property name you are searching for

tag: 'id'

the index of the object in the array, if found (the index may be 0 – not truthy!)

-1 if it wasn't found

Note: this function searches for a specific name-value pair in an object, as in:

'tag': 'key'

'tag' defaults to 'id' for searching through objects because 'id' is usually unique.

inArray

Finds an item's index in the array.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.inArray(item, array);

item: the item to search for in the array

array: the array to search

the index of the item in the array, if found (the index may be 0 – not truthy!)

-1 if it wasn't found

removeFromArray

Removes the first occurrence of the specified item from the array.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.removeFromArray(item, array);

item: the item to remove from the array

array: the array to remove from

true if the removal was made

false otherwise

isEmptyObject

Returns true if the object is empty (has no non-default properties / looks like this: {}).

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.isEmptyObject(obj);obj: the object to check to see if it is empty

true if it is empty

false otherwise

cap

Returns the given string with only the first letter capitalized.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Value
fs.cap(s);s: the string to properly capitalizes properly capitalized

Example: fs.cap('sOme STRing'); --> 'Some string'

noPx

Return the argument without the 'px' suffix.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.noPx(num);num: string number with a 'px' you want to be turned into a number valuethe number from the pixel string

Example: fs.noPx('50px'); --> 50

noPxStyle

Return the element's style property without the 'px' suffix.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
 fs.noPxStyle(elem, prop);

 elem: the d3 selection of an element

prop: the style property you want the number of

the number value of the style property

Example: fs.noPxStyle(d3.select('h2'), 'height'); --> 100

endsWith

Checks if the given string ends with a given suffix.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.endsWith(str, suffix);

str: the string you want to check

suffix: the suffix you want to look for

true if the str ends with suffix

false otherwise

parseBitRate

Returns a Number version of the given string bit rate.

Example UsageArgumentsReturn Values
fs.parseBitRate(str);str: the string that you want the bit rate fromthe number value of the bit rate

Example: fs.parseBitRate('4Mbps'); --> 4
