forEach (Functional Programming)

Creates a function that runs a callback for each value and returns the input array. Use it with pipe.

typescript
const result = pipe(array, forEach(callback));

::: info

This helper is specific to es-toolkit/fp. Use it when you want this operation as part of a pipe pipeline.

:::

Usage

forEach is useful as a side-effect step in a pipeline. It calls callback for each value and passes the original array through. Inside pipe, it is lazy-capable when adjacent lazy operations can stop early.

typescript
import { forEach, pipe } from 'es-toolkit/fp';

const values: number[] = [];

pipe(
  [1, 2, 3],
  forEach(value => values.push(value))
); // => [1, 2, 3]
values; // => [1, 2, 3]

Parameters

  • callback ((value: T, index: number) => void): The function to run for each value.

Returns

((array: readonly T[]) => readonly T[]): A function that returns the same array after running the callback.
