The plugins site is currently in development.

We've been looking to provide a higher-quality, spam-free experience at the plugins site for some time, and a major error on our part forced us to shut down the current site before we could put the new one in place. We are developing a new site, and you can follow along with its development on GitHub. For more information about this transition, including steps you can take as a plugin author to prepare, please read our post about what's going on.

jLINQ

Submitted by HBoss on October 2, 2008 - 6:01pm

If you've used the .NET Framework, chances are you've also used LINQ. The features found in LINQ allow you to work with collections in-memory to query, sort and manage data, much like you would with a SQL command. LINQ also allows you to connect directly to a database to manage records all within your IDE.

jLINQ works like .NET LINQ and lets you use commands to query collections that are in memory. jLINQ copies many of the same commands you find in LINQ like skip or take along with certain aggregate functions like sum.

So how does it work? Check out some of the code below.

var results = $.from(data)
    .ignoreCase()
    .startsWith("firstName","m")
    .or("n")
    .isNot("administrator")
    .orderBy("lastName")
    .select();

And that's it! You are returned a nice neat list of values matching what you entered. View the sample for more about the methods and commands!
