The when() function is used to callback if the first argument in the given proves to be true. In JavaScript, the array is first converted to a collection and then the function is applied to the collection.

Below examples illustrate the when() function in collect.js:
Example 1: Here in this example, we take a collection and then using the when() function modify the collection.

// It is used to import collect.js library   
const collect = require('collect.js');

const collection = collect([0 , 1 , 2]);
collection.when(true, items => items.push(3));

console.log(collection.all());

Output: 

[0 , 1 , 2 , 3]

Example 2: Same as above example but applying a different operation to perform.

// It is used to import collect.js library   
const collect = require('collect.js');

const collection = collect([0 , 1 , 2]);
collection.when(true, items => items.put('Jason'));

console.log(collection.all());

Output: 

[ 0, 1, 2, Jason: undefined ]
