java - What does this block of Scala code mean -
hi relatively new scala, try play 2 framework , stuck following code (used template)
<article class="tasks"> @todotasks.groupby(_.project).map { case (project, tasks) => { <div class="folder" data-folder-id="@project.id"> <header> <h3>@project.name</h3> </header> <ul class="list"> @tasks.map { task => <li data-task-id="@task.id"> <h4>@task.title</h4> </li> } </ul> </div> } } </article>
what line mean?
@todotasks.groupby(_.project).map {
and how use scala *.map in context of play 2 framework.
i'd appreciate if explain in exact detail relatively new scala (coming java developer)
groupby()
applies given lambda expression (_.project
, extracts project
task) each element of collection, , groups elements results of expression.
so, converts list of tasks list of tuples (project, tasksofthatproject)
.
now, map()
applies lambda expression each element of collection (i.e. each of these tuples).
lambda expression given map()
renders tuple project name , list of tasks.
