A collection of processes operating on iterators, usually implemented as generators

Processes

All processes are callables which operate on an input traversable (typically an iterator) and return an iterator.

Bulk adding Elastica documents

\EasyBib\Process\Elastica::write uses Elastica to bulk write arrays of documents to Elasticsearch using an Elastica type. You may use Elastica::bindWrite($type) to retrieve a method which accepts only an iterator of document sets.

use Easybib\Process\Elastica;

$documentGroups = [
    [$doc1, $doc2, $doc3],
    [$doc4, $doc5],
];

$outputIterator = Elastica::write($elasticaType, $documentGroups);
// equivalent to
$write = Elastica::bindWrite($elasticaType);
$outputIterator = $write($documentGroups);

// $documentGroups == iterator_to_array($outputIterator);

Searching Elastica documents

EasyBib\Process\Elastica::search uses Elastica to search for a set of documents matching a given search query. You may use Elastica::bindSearch($type, $limit) to retrieve a method which accepts only a search query string and an initial search offset.

use Easybib\Process\Elastica;

$iterator = Elastica::search($elasticaIndex, 100, $keywords, 0);
// equivalent to
$search = Elastica::bindSearch($elasticaIndex, 100);
$iterator = $search($keywords, 0);

Bulkify Transformation

\EasyBib\Process\Transform::bulkify aggregates the input iterator into arrays.

use Easybib\Process\Transform;

$items = [1, 2, 3, 4];

$outputIterator = Transform::bulkify(2, $items);
// equivalent to
$bulkify = Transform::bindBulkify(2);
$outputIterator = $bulkify($items);

// [[1, 2], [3, 4]] == iterator_to_array($outputIterator)

Unbulkify Transformation

Flattens the input by a single level, thus reversing a bulkify operation.

use Easybib\Process\Transform;

$bulks = [[1, 2], [3, 4], [5, ['some', 'array']]]];

$outputIterator = Transform::unbulkify($bulks);

// [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ['some', 'array']] == iterator_to_array($outputIterator)
