var Switch = require('switch-fn')

API

`Switch(cases)` -> `function`

cases

If no case matching the input is found and a 'default' case is given, it will be used.

More Examples

With a "property getter" for more complicated objects

const Switch = require('switch-fn')
const pipe = require('value-pipe')

const mySwitch = pipe(
  value => value.username.toLowerCase(),
  Switch({
    alice: () => 'hello, alice',
    john: () => 'hello, john'
  })
)

mySwitch({ username: 'Alice' }) // => 'hello, alice'

Pass in an array for numbers only

var Switch = require('switch-fn')

var fn = Switch([onZero, onOne])

fn(0)

Fibonacci

var fib = Switch({
  0: (n) => n,
  1: (n) => n,
  default: (n) => fib(n - 1) + fib(n - 2)
});

fib(10) // => 55
