Inception

So far 0.7.0 marks the most important release of Modelist so far.
Why? I was able to add my first user-requested feature #1 to add model.validate support to be called from outside. Also, I tackled some shortcomings that arose from working with Modelist in production with my colleagues. Those important additions are added now as well. I basically had to rework the instance structure and how it all comes together to support the upgrade filters.

Details:

• validate() method - A validate method can now be called and will validate against the passed in schema.
• last() - A handy companion to the first() method, and will give you the last element of the collection.
• has(key) - You can now check if an element exists in the collection using has and passing in the primaryKey. Works like find but will return a Boolean

Drumroll please 🥁

• filters - Filters passed in to the instance will no longer just return the filtered array, but a new Model instance giving you access to everything the core of Modelist supports.

Here is a short example:

const model = new Model({
  data: [
    { id: 1, task: 'Buy Milk', done: false },
    { id: 2, task: 'Update Modelist', done: true },
  ],
  filters: {
    completed: c => c.filter(e => e.done)
  }
})

model.completed.size // = 1
model.completed.all() // [{ id: 2, task: 'Update Modelist', done: true }]
model.completed.first() // [{ id: 2, task: 'Update Modelist', done: true }]
// ... and all the other stuff you love
