Example

// Example: Composing a string comparison filter as a property, homogeneous model
import { BaseFunctions } from 'collectype';
import { stringComparisonFactory } from 'collectype';

type Person = { name: string; city: string };

class PersonFunctions extends BaseFunctions<Person> {
  stringEquals = stringComparisonFactory<Person, this>(this, 'eq');
}

// Usage:
const people: Person[] = [
  { name: 'Alice', city: 'Paris' },
  { name: 'Bob', city: 'Lyon' },
  { name: 'Eve', city: 'Paris' }
];
const fn = new PersonFunctions(people);
const filtered = fn.stringEquals('city', 'Paris');
// filtered contains the items where 'city' is equal to 'Paris'
