Two Unique Ways of Piping data in Elixir

No junk, straight to code

Assume data = {:ok, [1,2,3,4,5]} and we need to pass the data to the next function.

Do we need to write another function to do that job for this small operation? I don’t think so.

Check this…

TYPE –1 🎉

data
|> (fn {:ok, list} -> list  end).()
|> length()
5

TYPE — 2 🎉

Here, instead of sending the length itself, I would like to send a message something looks like Total Images : 5 Do I again need to use inline function fn again here? I don’t think so.

Check this…

data
|> (& {:ok, list} -> list ).()
|> length()
|> (&"Total Images : #{&1}").()
