NestedTuples
NestedTuples
has some tools for making it easier to work with nested tuples and nested named tuples.
Named tuples as contexts
We can do this with @with
, similar to StaticModules.jl (and identical syntax):
julia> @with((x=1, y=2), x+y)
3
These can also be nested, with good performance:
julia> nt = (x=1, y=(a=2, b=3))
(x = 1, y = (a = 2, b = 3))
julia> @with nt begin
x + @with y (a+b)
end
6
julia> @btime @with $nt begin
x + @with y (a + b)
end
0.010 ns (0 allocations: 0 bytes)
6
Note that we haven't yet done any rigorous comparison to StaticModules. The main reason for the alternative implementation is that we already have GeneralizedGenerated.jl as a dependency, and leveraging this makes the new implementation very simple.
Random nested tuples
randnt
is useful for testing. Here's a random nested tuple with width 2 and depth 3:
julia> nt = randnt(2,3)
(w = (d = (p = :p, l = :l), e = (m = :m, v = :v)), q = (y = (r = :r, o = :o), g = (y = :y, h = :h)))
Schema
Does what it says on the tin:
julia> schema(nt)
(w = (d = (p = Symbol, l = Symbol), e = (m = Symbol, v = Symbol)), q = (y = (r = Symbol, o = Symbol), g = (y = Symbol, h = Symbol)))
schema
is especially great for building generated functions on named tuples, because it works on types too:
julia> schema(typeof(nt))
(w = (d = (p = Symbol, l = Symbol), e = (m = Symbol, v = Symbol)), q = (y = (r = Symbol, o = Symbol), g = (y = Symbol, h = Symbol)))
Flatten
julia> flatten(nt)
(:p, :l, :m, :v, :r, :o, :y, :h)
Recursive map
julia> rmap(String, nt)
(w = (d = (p = "p", l = "l"), e = (m = "m", v = "v")), q = (y = (r = "r", o = "o"), g = (y = "y", h = "h")))
Recursively sort keys
Use keysort
for this.
julia> @btime keysort($nt)
0.020 ns (0 allocations: 0 bytes)
(q = (g = (h = :h, y = :y), y = (o = :o, r = :r)), w = (d = (l = :l, p = :p), e = (m = :m, v = :v)))
Lazy Merge
Recursively merging named tuples can be expensive. lazymerge(nt1, nt2)
creates a LazyMerge
struct that behaves in the same way but can be much faster.
Leaf setter
leaf_setter
takes a nested named tuple and builds a function that sets the values on the leaves.
julia> f = leaf_setter(nt)
function = (##777, ##778, ##779, ##780, ##781, ##782, ##783, ##784;) -> begin
begin
(w = (d = (p = var"##777", l = var"##778"), e = (m = var"##779", v = var"##780")), q = (y = (r = var"##781", o = var"##782"), g = (y = var"##783", h = var"##784")))
end
end
julia> @btime $f(1:8...)
0.020 ns (0 allocations: 0 bytes)
(w = (d = (p = 1, l = 2), e = (m = 3, v = 4)), q = (y = (r = 5, o = 6), g = (y = 7, h = 8)))
Fold
fold
is a "structural fold". You give it a function f
, and the result will apply f
at the leaves, and then combine leaves recursively also using f
. It also allows an optional third argument as a pre
function to be applied on the way down to the leaves. This is probably clearer from an example:
function example_fold(x)
pathsize = 10
function pre(x, path)
print("↓ path = ")
print(rpad(path, pathsize))
println("value = ", x)
return x
end
function f(x::Union{Tuple, NamedTuple}, path)
print("↑ path = ")
print(rpad(path, pathsize))
println("value = ", x)
return x
end
function f(x, path)
print("↑ path = ")
print(rpad(path, pathsize))
print("value = ", x)
println(" ←-- LEAF")
return x
end
fold(f, x, pre)
end
