Etc provides folio related utility methods.
- compareDis
- static Int compareDis(Str a, Str b)- Given two display strings, return 1, 0, or -1 if a is less than, equal to, or greater than b. The comparison is case insensitive and takes into account trailing digits so that a dis str such as "Foo-10" is greater than "Foo-2". 
- dictFindAll
- static Dict dictFindAll(Dict d, |Obj?,Str->Obj? f)- Apply the given map function to each name/value pair to construct a new Dict. 
- dictMap
- static Dict dictMap(Dict d, |Obj?,Str->Obj? f)- Apply the given map function to each name/value pair to construct a new Dict. 
- dictMerge
- static Dict dictMerge(Dict a, Obj? b)- Add/set all the name/value pairs in a with those defined in b. If b defines a remove value then that name/value is removed from a. The b parameter may be any value accepted by makeDict 
- dictNames
- static Str[] dictNames(Dict d)- Get a read/write list of the dict's name keys. 
- dictRemove
- static Dict dictRemove(Dict d, Str name)- Set a name/val pair in an existing dict. 
- dictSet
- static Dict dictSet(Dict d, Str name, Obj? val)- Set a name/val pair in an existing dict. 
- dictToDis
- static Str? dictToDis(Dict dict, Str? def := "")- Given a dic, attempt to find the best display string: - disMacrotag returns macro using dict as scope
- distag
- nametag
- tagtag
- idtag
- default
 
- dictToMap
- static Str:Obj? dictToMap(Dict d)- Convert a Dict to a read/write map. This method is expensive, when possible you should instead use Dict.each. 
- dictVals
- static Obj?[] dictVals(Dict d)- Get all the non-null values mapped by a dictionary. 
- dictsNames
- static Str[] dictsNames(Dict[] dicts)- Given a list of dictionaries, find all the common names used. Return the names in standard sorted order. 
- emptyDict
- static Dict emptyDict()- Get the emtpy Dict instance. 
- isDictVal
- static Bool isDictVal(Obj? val)- Return if the given value is one of the scalar values supported by dictions and grids. 
- isTagName
- Return if the given string is a legal tag name: - first char must be ASCII lower case letter: a-z
- rest of chars must be ASCII letter or digit: a-z,A-Z,0-9, or_
 
- first char must be ASCII lower case letter: 
- macro
- static Str macro(Str pattern, Dict scope)- Process macro pattern with given scope of variable name/value pairs. The pattern is a Unicode string with embedded expressions: - $tag: resolve tag name from scope
- ${tag}: resolve tag name from scope
- $<pod::key>: localization key
 - If a tag resolves to Ref, then we use Ref.dis for string. 
- makeDict
- static Dict makeDict(Obj? val)- Make a Dict instance where - valis one of the following:- Dict: return val
- null: return emptyDict
- Str[]: dictionary of key/Marker value pairs
- Str:Obj?: wrap map as Dict
 
- Dict: return 
- makeDictGrid
- static Grid makeDictGrid(Obj? meta, Dict row)- Construct a grid for a Dict row. The meta parameter can be any makeDict value. 
- makeDicts
- static Dict[] makeDicts(Obj?[] maps)- Make a list of Dict instances using makeDict. 
- makeDictsGrid
- static Grid makeDictsGrid(Obj? meta, Dict[] rows)- Construct a grid for a list of Dict rows. The meta parameter can be any makeDict value. 
- makeEmptyGrid
- static Grid makeEmptyGrid(Obj? meta := null)- Construct an empty grid with just the given grid level meta-data. The meta parameter can be any makeDict value. 
- makeErrGrid
- static Grid makeErrGrid(Err e, Obj? meta := null)- Construct a grid for an error response. 
- makeListGrid
- static Grid makeListGrid(Obj? meta, Str colName, Obj? colMeta, Obj?[] rows)- Construct a grid with one column for a list. The meta and colMeta parameters can be any makeDict value. 
- makeListsGrid
- static Grid makeListsGrid(Obj? meta, Str[] colNames, Obj?[]? colMetas, Obj?[][] rows)- Construct a grid for a list of rows, where each row is a list of cells. The meta and colMetas parameters can be any makeDict value. 
- makeMapGrid
- static Grid makeMapGrid(Obj? meta, Str:Obj? row)- Convenience for makeDictGrid 
- makeMapsGrid
- static Grid makeMapsGrid(Obj? meta, Str:Obj?[] rows)- Convenience for makeDictsGrid 
- relDis
- static Str relDis(Str parent, Str child)- Get a relative display name. If the child display name starts with the parent, then we can strip that as the common suffix. 
- tagToLocale
- static Str tagToLocale(Str name)- Get the localized string for the given tag name for the current locale. See docSkySpark::Localization#tags. 
- toGrid
- Given an arbitrary object, translate it to a Grid suitable for serizliation with Zinc: - if grid just return it
- if row in grid of size, return row.grid
- if scalar return 1x1 grid
- if dict return grid where dict is only
- if list of dict return grid where each dict is row
- if list of non-dicts, return one col grid with rows for each item
- if non-zinc type return grid with cols val, type
 
- toTagName
- Take an arbitrary string ane convert into a safe tag name.
