Pipper

Pipper provides the <|> operator as a shorthand macro:

import Pipper

# This:
list = [1,2,3]
list <|> Enum.map(&(&1 * 2))
IO.inspect list # list == [2,4,6]

# Equivalent to:
list = [1,2,3]
list = list |> Enum.map(&(&1 * 2))
IO.inspect list

Wishes and Dreams

=|> would be a better operator, to make the assignment clearer. But it's not available.

Installation

If available in Hex, the package can be installed as:

Add pipper to your list of dependencies in mix.exs:
def deps do
```
 [{:pipper, "~> 1.0.0"}]
```
end
Ensure pipper is started before your application:
def application do
```
 [applications: [:pipper]]
```
end
