@pivanov/utils

A focused collection of TypeScript utilities for modern web development.

     

Features

• Fully typed - strict TypeScript across every module, literal-type preserving where it matters
• Tree-shakeable - ESM + CJS + per-module subpath exports, "sideEffects": false
• Zero dependencies - React is an optional peer dep only for the useEventBus hook
• Well tested - 200+ tests, real edge cases (circular refs, typed arrays, Buffers, symbols)

Installation

bun add @pivanov/utils

npm install @pivanov/utils

yarn add @pivanov/utils

pnpm add @pivanov/utils

Quick start

import { camelCase, snakeCase, slugify } from '@pivanov/utils/string';
import { pick, groupBy, deepMerge } from '@pivanov/utils/object';
import { isString, isNil, isDefined } from '@pivanov/utils/assertion';
import { sleep, timeout, retry, parallelLimit } from '@pivanov/utils/promise';
import { deepClone, isEqual, busDispatch, useEventBus } from '@pivanov/utils/tools';

What's inside

Module	Surface
assertion	isString, isNumber, isBoolean, isFunction, isObject, isRecord, isNull, isUndefined, isNil, isDefined, isArray, isDate, isRegExp, isError, isPromise, isMap, isSet, isPrimitive, isEmpty
object	pick, omit, pickBy, omitBy, merge, deepMerge, mapValues, mapKeys, groupBy, invert, hasOwn, keysOf, entriesOf, fromEntries
promise	sleep, timeout, retry, defer, parallelLimit - all AbortSignal-aware where relevant
string	camelCase, pascalCase, kebabCase, snakeCase, titleCase, slugify, capitalize, uncapitalize, capitalizeFirstLetter, truncate, escapeHtml, escapeRegExp, words, lines
tools/deepClone	Rich deep clone (prototypes, getters/setters, symbols, Buffers, TypedArrays, circular refs)
tools/isEqual	Deep equality with cycle detection; compares RegExp, Error, TypedArrays, ArrayBuffer
tools/dom	isBrowser, checkVisibility, isInViewport, setStyleProperties, calculateRenderedTextWidth
tools/cache-api	Typed wrapper over the browser Cache API, with TTL support
tools/eventBus	busDispatch, busSubscribe, busOnce, useEventBus - typed topics, optional error handler
types	TDict, TObjType, DeepPartial, DeepReadonly, Mutable, Prettify

See the full API documentation.

Tree shaking

Subpath imports give the smallest bundles:

import { camelCase } from '@pivanov/utils/string';
import { deepClone } from '@pivanov/utils/tools';

Top-level imports tree-shake fine in modern bundlers:

import { camelCase, deepClone } from '@pivanov/utils';

A few highlights

Async that cancels

import { sleep, timeout, retry } from '@pivanov/utils/promise';

const ctrl = new AbortController();
await sleep(1000, ctrl.signal);                          // cancellable
await timeout(fetch('/slow'), 3000);                     // race with timer
await retry(() => fetch('/api'), { attempts: 5, backoff: (n) => 100 * 2 ** n });

Typed event bus

import { busDispatch, useEventBus, type IEventBus } from '@pivanov/utils/tools';

interface UserLoggedIn extends IEventBus<{ id: number; name: string }> {
  topic: 'user:logged-in';
}

useEventBus<UserLoggedIn>('user:logged-in', (user) => console.log(user.name));
busDispatch<UserLoggedIn>('user:logged-in', { id: 1, name: 'Ada' });

See the Typed Events guide for an event-map pattern at scale.

Cache with TTL

import {
  storageSetItemWithTTL,
  storageGetItemWithTTL,
} from '@pivanov/utils/tools';

await storageSetItemWithTTL('app', 'token', 'abc123', 10 * 60 * 1000);

const token = await storageGetItemWithTTL<string>('app', 'token');
// null if missing or expired; expired entries are deleted on read

Deep clone that actually preserves shape

import { deepClone } from '@pivanov/utils/tools';

class User {
  constructor(public name: string) {}
  greet() { return `hi ${this.name}`; }
}

const clone = deepClone(new User('Ada'));
clone instanceof User; // true
clone.greet();         // 'hi Ada'

Compatibility

• Modern browsers (ES2022)
• Bun, Node 18+ (ESM or CJS)
• Cache API requires browser support (Chrome 40+, Firefox 41+, Safari 11.1+)
• React hook requires React 18+

Development

bun install
bun test                # run tests
bun run test:coverage   # with coverage (lcov)
bun run typecheck
bun run lint
bun run build           # ESM + CJS + .d.ts
bun run docs:dev        # run VitePress docs site locally
