# Lo-Dash <sup>v0.6.1</sup>
|
||
|
||
A drop-in replacement<sup>[*](https://github.com/bestiejs/lodash/wiki/Drop-in-Disclaimer)</sup> for Underscore.js, from the devs behind [jsPerf.com](http://jsperf.com), delivering [performance](http://lodash.com/benchmarks), [bug fixes](https://github.com/bestiejs/lodash#resolved-underscorejs-issues-30), and [additional features](https://github.com/bestiejs/lodash#features).
|
||
|
||
Lo-Dash’s performance is gained by avoiding slower native methods, instead opting for simplified non-ES5 compliant methods optimized for common usage, and by leveraging function compilation to reduce the number of overall function calls.

## Support
|
||
|
||
Lo-Dash has been tested in at least Chrome 5-21, Firefox 1-15, IE 6-9, Opera 9.25-12, Safari 3-6, Node.js 0.4.8-0.8.8, Narwhal 0.3.2, RingoJS 0.8, and Rhino 1.7RC5.
|
||
|
||
## Custom builds
|
||
|
||
Custom builds make it easy to create lightweight versions of Lo-Dash containing only the methods you need.
|
||
We handle all the method dependency and alias mapping for you.
|
||
|
||
* Backbone builds, containing all methods required by Backbone, may be created using the `backbone` modifier argument.
|
||
```bash
|
||
lodash backbone
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* CSP builds, supporting default Content Security Policy restrictions, may be created using the `csp` modifier argument.
|
||
```bash
|
||
lodash csp
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Legacy builds, tailored for older browsers without [ES5 support](http://es5.github.com/), may be created using the `legacy` modifier argument.
|
||
```bash
|
||
lodash legacy
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Mobile builds, with IE < 9 bug fixes and method compilation removed, may be created using the `mobile` modifier argument.
|
||
```bash
|
||
lodash mobile
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Strict builds, with `_.bindAll`, `_.defaults`, and `_.extend` in [strict mode](http://es5.github.com/#C), may be created using the `strict` modifier argument.
|
||
```bash
|
||
lodash strict
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
* Underscore builds, containing only methods included in Underscore, may be created using the `underscore` modifier argument.
|
||
```bash
|
||
lodash underscore
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Custom builds may be created in three ways:
|
||
|
||
1. Use the `category` argument to pass the categories of methods to include in the build.<br>
|
||
Valid categories are *“arrays”*, *“chaining”*, *“collections”*, *“functions”*, *“objects”*, and *“utilities”*.
|
||
```bash
|
||
lodash category=collections,functions
|
||
lodash category="collections, functions"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
2. Use the `exclude` argument to pass the names of methods to exclude from the build.
|
||
```bash
|
||
lodash exclude=union,uniq,zip
|
||
lodash exclude="union, uniq, zip"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
3. Use the `include` argument to pass the names of methods to include in the build.
|
||
```bash
|
||
lodash include=each,filter,map
|
||
lodash include="each, filter, map"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
All arguments, except `backbone` with `underscore`, `exclude` with `include`, and `legacy` with `csp`/`mobile`, may be combined.
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
lodash backbone legacy category=utilities exclude=first,last
|
||
lodash underscore mobile strict category=functions include=pick,uniq
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The `lodash` command-line utility is available when Lo-Dash is installed as a global package (i.e. `npm install -g lodash`).
|
||
|
||
Custom builds are saved to `lodash.custom.js` and `lodash.custom.min.js`.
|
||
|
||
## Installation and usage
|
||
|
||
In browsers:
|
||
|
||
```html
|
||
<script src="lodash.js"></script>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Using [npm](http://npmjs.org/):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npm install lodash
|
||
npm install -g lodash
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/) and [RingoJS v0.8.0+](http://ringojs.org/):
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
var _ = require('lodash');
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In [RingoJS v0.7.0-](http://ringojs.org/):
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
var _ = require('lodash')._;
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In [Rhino](http://www.mozilla.org/rhino/):
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
load('lodash.js');
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In an AMD loader like [RequireJS](http://requirejs.org/):
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
require({
|
||
'paths': {
|
||
'underscore': 'path/to/lodash'
|
||
}
|
||
},
|
||
['underscore'], function(_) {
|
||
console.log(_.VERSION);
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
