# arr-union [](http://badge.fury.io/js/arr-union) [](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/arr-union)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
> Combines a list of arrays, returning a single array with unique values, using strict equality for comparisons.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This library is **15-20 times faster** and more performant (scales better) than [array-union](https://github.com/sindresorhus/array-union), which just uses `[].concat.apply([], arguments)`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Benchmarks
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See the [benchmarks](./benchmark).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
#1: five-arrays.js
|
||
|
|
array-union.js x 245,487 ops/sec ±0.99% (96 runs sampled)
|
||
|
|
current.js x 5,267,661 ops/sec ±0.63% (98 runs sampled)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#2: ten-arrays.js
|
||
|
|
array-union.js x 134,784 ops/sec ±0.51% (94 runs sampled)
|
||
|
|
current.js x 1,919,143 ops/sec ±0.45% (100 runs sampled)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#3: two-arrays.js
|
||
|
|
array-union.js x 308,374 ops/sec ±0.75% (96 runs sampled)
|
||
|
|
current.js x 7,361,915 ops/sec ±0.67% (95 runs sampled)
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Install
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```sh
|
||
|
|
$ npm i arr-union --save
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
var union = require('arr-union');
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
union(['a'], ['b', 'c'], ['d', 'e', 'f']);
|
||
|
|
//=> ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f']
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns only unique elements:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```js
|
||
|
|
union(['a', 'a'], ['b', 'c']);
|
||
|
|
//=> ['a', 'b', 'c']
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Other array utilities
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* [arr-diff](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/arr-diff): Returns an array with only the unique values from the first array, by excluding all… [more](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/arr-diff)
|
||
|
|
* [arr-flatten](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/arr-flatten): Recursively flatten an array or arrays. This is the fastest implementation of array flatten.
|
||
|
|
* [arr-filter](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/arr-filter): Faster alternative to javascript's native filter method.
|
||
|
|
* [arr-map](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/arr-map): Faster, node.js focused alternative to JavaScript's native array map.
|
||
|
|
* [arr-pluck](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/arr-pluck): Retrieves the value of a specified property from all elements in the collection.
|
||
|
|
* [arr-reduce](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/arr-reduce): Fast array reduce that also loops over sparse elements.
|
||
|
|
* [array-unique](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/array-unique): Return an array free of duplicate values. Fastest ES5 implementation.
