JS Libraries

JavaScript libraries simplify common tasks such as data manipulation, date handling, and more. These libraries can be accessed using their imported names inside Appsmith.

Built-in JS Libraries ​

Appsmith provides the following built-in JavaScript libraries that can be utilized in your applications.

Lodash ​

Lodash provides functions for common programming tasks such as formatting data, iterating over collections, and manipulating arrays and objects.
{{ _.sortBy(fetchUsers.data, ["age"]) }}

For more information, see Lodash

Moment ​

Simplifies working with dates and times in JavaScript by providing functions for parsing, validating, manipulating, and displaying dates and times.
{{ moment(datePicker1.selectedDate.format('DD MMM')) }}

For more information, see Moment

Forge ​

Forge can be used to work with cryptographic algorithms and protocols in JavaScript.
export default {
hash ( ) {
var md = forge . md . sha256 . create ( ) ;
md . update ( "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" ) ;
return md . digest ( ) . toHex ( ) ;
} ,
} ;

For more information, see Forge
