generic-pipeline

A C++ repository to pipe operations functional and Unix style!

Header-only. Dive right in: generic_pipeline.hpp.

The Generic Pipeline

All the pipeline code is in the generic_pipeline.hpp. Jump straight to it to the usable pipelines. This currently compiles with -std=c++20. I shall be updating the code to add conditional constructs to enable backward compatability.

The repository is organised into sections as per the coverage of my talk:

Section 0 - Unix pipelines & C++ journey from <algorithm> to <ranges>

Introduction and initial code snippets

Section 1 - C++11

Sequentially building the solution. Follow files from 1.1_*.cpp to 1.c_*.cpp.

Section 2 - C++17

Use of std::optional and handling thereof - unpacking & packing.

Section 3 - C++20

Using concepts to make sure ranges pipelines are not impacted by generic-pipeline.

Section 4 - C++23

Improvise and make concise the continuations of the std::optional monadic interface introduced in C++23.

Compiling & testing

Steps are:

$ git clone [email protected]:sankurm/generic-pipeline.git

$ mkdir build
$ cd build

# To compile the file 1.2_op1_concrete.cpp in directory 1_cpp11/src:
$ ls ../1_cpp11/src/1.2_op1_concrete.cpp
../1_cpp11/src/1.2_op1_concrete.cpp
$ ../build_test.sh 1.2

# Similarly, to compile file 2.3_with_constref_overload.cpp inside directory 2_cpp17/src:
$ ls ../2_cpp17/src/2.3_with_constref_overload.cpp
../2_cpp17/src/2.3_with_constref_overload.cpp
$ ../build_test.sh 2.3

# Syntax is
$ ../build_test.sh <file-prefix-no>
