@datahub/utils
==============================================================================
Description
-
This contains a set of utility *functions* & *types*, shareable and useful in a generic way __*across*__ Data Hub packages.
The goal here is not to serve as a 'bin' for code that may not fit into other packages and need to be shared, but to create a way to easily transport and host highly reusable and abstracted base functions that are independent of any application state.
**Functions should have**
- a well defined and thought out interface
- abide by the single responsibility principle, the open-closed principle
- be clearly named, unambiguously and adequately describe their use
- be properly namespaced
- be unit tested
Good examples of utility functions that makes sense to be included here would be
- an `Array` utility like groupBy that takes a collection of records and returns a map, keyed by values from records in the collection.
- a URL helper like `getAbsoluteUrl` that builds an absolute URL string from a relative URL.
Other non-function code snippets that make sense here would be base types.
A good example would be
- the generic type `ArrayElement<T>` where `ArrayElement` is `type ArrayElement<T extends Array<any>> = T[0]`
