Sweetener

Set of nifty functions I missed in Elixir core.

Helpers provided so far:

• tap an analogue of ruby’s tap method. It’s useful for more concise logging/external calls without intermediate local variables:

use Sweetener

tap Supervisor.start_link(children, opts) do
  IO.inspect Supervisor.count_children(_())
  #=> %{active: 1, specs: 1, supervisors: 0, workers: 1}
end #=> returning {:ok, pid} tuple

Installation

Add sweetener to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:

def deps do
  [
    {:sweetener, "~> 0.1.0"}
  ]
end
