Tools and libraries to deal with iterators in Go > 1.23.
This aims to be a polished collection of tools to manipulate iterators in Go.
Iterators have been introduced in Go 1.23 and we'll likely soon get some helpers and APIs in the standard library to create and mutate them.
If you are eager to use operations like Map or Filter or would like a more
idiomatic API for bufio.Scanner this module is probably for you.
I'll make sure that, as soon as standard alternatives become available, I'll deprecate my versions and facilitate the migration to the new ones (e.g. providing tools to automatically rewrite code).
If you need to construct or consume iterators please use the from and to subpackages.
I am not endorsing a programming style that encourages mapreduce-like code and that pushes for a higher mental overhead than it's necessary.
This library is intended to help when those operations are actually needed to make code easier to read, but I would invite the reader of this document to try and avoid creating obscure code bases that rely too heavily on this library.
