# Iteraptor



[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/am-kantox/elixir-iteraptor.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/am-kantox/elixir-iteraptor)

Handy enumerable operations:



  * `to_flatmap`



## Installation



  1. Add `iteraptor` to your list of dependencies in `mix.exs`:



    ```elixir

    def deps do

      [{:iteraptor, "~> 0.3.0"}]

    end

    ```



  2. Ensure `iteraptor` is started before your application:



    ```elixir

    def application do

      [applications: [:iteraptor]]

    end

    ```

## Usage



```elixir

iex> %{a: %{b: %{c: 42, d: [nil, 42]}, e: [:f, 42]}} |> Iteraptor.to_flatmap

%{"a.b.c" => 42, "a.b.d.0" => nil, "a.b.d.1" => 42, "a.e.0" => :f, "a.e.1" => 42}

```



To be implicitly as explicit as possible, the current implementation creates

string keys for those, containing joiner and atoms for those that haven’t.



That makes normal maps to be resistant to



```elixir

iex> %{a: %{b: %{c: 42}}} |> Iteraptor.to_flatmap |> Iteraptor.from_flatmap

%{a: %{b: %{c: 42}}}



```



## Changelog



As of version `0.3.0`, the module supports

[`Keyword`](http://elixir-lang.org/docs/stable/elixir/Keyword.html) on input,

but it will be output as map for `|> Iteraptor.to_flatmap |> Iteraptor.from_flatmap`

back and forth transformation.



As of version `0.4.0`, the module supports

[structs](http://elixir-lang.org/getting-started/structs.html) on input.

Structs will be automagically created on `|> Iteraptor.from_flatmap` from

keys like `StructName%field` if a) this structure is known to the system

and b) keys are consistent (e. g. there are no subsequent elements,

belonging to different structs: `["S1%f" => 42, "S2%f" => 3.14]`.)



Please see examples for an inspiration.
