Class Collectors

public final class Collectors
extends Object

Implementations of Collector that implement various useful reduction operations, such as accumulating elements into collections, summarizing elements according to various criteria, etc.

The following are examples of using the predefined collectors to perform common mutable reduction tasks:

// Accumulate names into a List
 List<String> list = people.stream()
   .map(Person::getName)
   .collect(Collectors.toList());

 // Accumulate names into a TreeSet
 Set<String> set = people.stream()
   .map(Person::getName)
   .collect(Collectors.toCollection(TreeSet::new));

 // Convert elements to strings and concatenate them, separated by commas
 String joined = things.stream()
   .map(Object::toString)
   .collect(Collectors.joining(", "));

 // Compute sum of salaries of employee
 int total = employees.stream()
   .collect(Collectors.summingInt(Employee::getSalary));

 // Group employees by department
 Map<Department, List<Employee>> byDept = employees.stream()
   .collect(Collectors.groupingBy(Employee::getDepartment));

 // Compute sum of salaries by department
 Map<Department, Integer> totalByDept = employees.stream()
   .collect(Collectors.groupingBy(Employee::getDepartment,
                                  Collectors.summingInt(Employee::getSalary)));

 // Partition students into passing and failing
 Map<Boolean, List<Student>> passingFailing = students.stream()
   .collect(Collectors.partitioningBy(s -> s.getGrade() >= PASS_THRESHOLD));

Adapts a Collector accepting elements of type U to one accepting elements of type T by applying a mapping function to each input element before accumulation.

API Note:
The mapping() collectors are most useful when used in a multi-level reduction, such as downstream of a groupingBy or partitioningBy. For example, given a stream of Person, to accumulate the set of last names in each city:
Map<City, Set<String>> lastNamesByCity
   = people.stream().collect(
     groupingBy(Person::getCity,
                mapping(Person::getLastName,
                        toSet())));
Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
U - type of elements accepted by downstream collector
A - intermediate accumulation type of the downstream collector
R - result type of collector
Parameters:
mapper - a function to be applied to the input elements
downstream - a collector which will accept mapped values
Returns:
a collector which applies the mapping function to the input elements and provides the mapped results to the downstream collector

flatMapping

public static <T,​U,​A,​R> Collector<T,​?,​R> flatMapping​(Function<? super T,​? extends Stream<? extends U>> mapper,
                                                                                   Collector<? super U,​A,​R> downstream)

Adapts a Collector accepting elements of type U to one accepting elements of type T by applying a flat mapping function to each input element before accumulation. The flat mapping function maps an input element to a stream covering zero or more output elements that are then accumulated downstream. Each mapped stream is closed after its contents have been placed downstream. (If a mapped stream is null an empty stream is used, instead.)

API Note:
The flatMapping() collectors are most useful when used in a multi-level reduction, such as downstream of a groupingBy or partitioningBy. For example, given a stream of Order, to accumulate the set of line items for each customer:
Map<String, Set<LineItem>> itemsByCustomerName
   = orders.stream().collect(
     groupingBy(Order::getCustomerName,
                flatMapping(order -> order.getLineItems().stream(),
                            toSet())));
Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
U - type of elements accepted by downstream collector
A - intermediate accumulation type of the downstream collector
R - result type of collector
Parameters:
mapper - a function to be applied to the input elements, which returns a stream of results
downstream - a collector which will receive the elements of the stream returned by mapper
Returns:
a collector which applies the mapping function to the input elements and provides the flat mapped results to the downstream collector

filtering

public static <T,​A,​R> Collector<T,​?,​R> filtering​(Predicate<? super T> predicate,
                                                                         Collector<? super T,​A,​R> downstream)

Adapts a Collector to one accepting elements of the same type T by applying the predicate to each input element and only accumulating if the predicate returns true.

API Note:
The filtering() collectors are most useful when used in a multi-level reduction, such as downstream of a groupingBy or partitioningBy. For example, given a stream of Employee, to accumulate the employees in each department that have a salary above a certain threshold:
Map<Department, Set<Employee>> wellPaidEmployeesByDepartment
   = employees.stream().collect(
     groupingBy(Employee::getDepartment,
                filtering(e -> e.getSalary() > 2000,
                          toSet())));
A filtering collector differs from a stream's filter() operation. In this example, suppose there are no employees whose salary is above the threshold in some department. Using a filtering collector as shown above would result in a mapping from that department to an empty Set. If a stream filter() operation were done instead, there would be no mapping for that department at all.
Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
A - intermediate accumulation type of the downstream collector
R - result type of collector
Parameters:
predicate - a predicate to be applied to the input elements
downstream - a collector which will accept values that match the predicate
Returns:
a collector which applies the predicate to the input elements and provides matching elements to the downstream collector
Since:

Adapts a Collector to perform an additional finishing transformation. For example, one could adapt the toList() collector to always produce an immutable list with:

List<String> list = people.stream().collect(
   collectingAndThen(toList(),
                     Collections::unmodifiableList));
Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements

The sum returned can vary depending upon the order in which values are recorded, due to accumulated rounding error in addition of values of differing magnitudes. Values sorted by increasing absolute magnitude tend to yield more accurate results. If any recorded value is a NaN or the sum is at any point a NaN then the sum will be NaN.

Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements

mapper - a function extracting the property to be summed
Returns:
a Collector that produces the sum of a derived property

public static <T> Collector<T,​?,​Double> averagingInt​(ToIntFunction<? super T> mapper)

averagingDouble

public static <T> Collector<T,​?,​Double> averagingDouble​(ToDoubleFunction<? super T> mapper)

Returns a Collector that produces the arithmetic mean of a double-valued function applied to the input elements. If no elements are present, the result is 0.

The average returned can vary depending upon the order in which values are recorded, due to accumulated rounding error in addition of values of differing magnitudes. Values sorted by increasing absolute magnitude tend to yield more accurate results. If any recorded value is a NaN or the sum is at any point a NaN then the average will be NaN.

Implementation Note:
The double format can represent all consecutive integers in the range -253 to 253. If the pipeline has more than 253 values, the divisor in the average computation will saturate at 253, leading to additional numerical errors.
Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
Parameters:
mapper - a function extracting the property to be averaged
Returns:
a Collector that produces the arithmetic mean of a derived property

                                                                BinaryOperator<U> op)

Returns a Collector which performs a reduction of its input elements under a specified mapping function and BinaryOperator. This is a generalization of reducing(Object, BinaryOperator) which allows a transformation of the elements before reduction.

API Note:
The reducing() collectors are most useful when used in a multi-level reduction, downstream of groupingBy or partitioningBy. To perform a simple map-reduce on a stream, use Stream.map(Function) and Stream.reduce(Object, BinaryOperator) instead.

For example, given a stream of Person, to calculate the longest last name of residents in each city:

Comparator<String> byLength = Comparator.comparing(String::length);
 Map<City, String> longestLastNameByCity
   = people.stream().collect(
     groupingBy(Person::getCity,
                reducing("",
                         Person::getLastName,
                         BinaryOperator.maxBy(byLength))));
Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
U - the type of the mapped values
Parameters:
identity - the identity value for the reduction (also, the value that is returned when there are no input elements)
mapper - a mapping function to apply to each input value
op - a BinaryOperator<U> used to reduce the mapped values
Returns:
a Collector implementing the map-reduce operation
See Also:
reducing(Object, BinaryOperator), reducing(BinaryOperator)

groupingBy

public static <T,​K> Collector<T,​?,​Map<K,​List<T>>> groupingBy​(Function<? super T,​? extends K> classifier)

Returns a Collector implementing a "group by" operation on input elements of type T, grouping elements according to a classification function, and returning the results in a Map.

The classification function maps elements to some key type K. The collector produces a Map<K, List<T>> whose keys are the values resulting from applying the classification function to the input elements, and whose corresponding values are Lists containing the input elements which map to the associated key under the classification function.

There are no guarantees on the type, mutability, serializability, or thread-safety of the Map or List objects returned.

Implementation Requirements:
This produces a result similar to:
groupingBy(classifier, toList());
Implementation Note:
The returned Collector is not concurrent. For parallel stream pipelines, the combiner function operates by merging the keys from one map into another, which can be an expensive operation. If preservation of the order in which elements appear in the resulting Map collector is not required, using groupingByConcurrent(Function) may offer better parallel performance.
Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
K - the type of the keys
Parameters:
classifier - the classifier function mapping input elements to keys
Returns:
a Collector implementing the group-by operation

public static <T,​K,​A,​D> Collector<T,​?,​Map<K,​D>> groupingBy​(Function<? super T,​? extends K> classifier,
                                                                                               Collector<? super T,​A,​D> downstream)

Returns a Collector implementing a cascaded "group by" operation on input elements of type T, grouping elements according to a classification function, and then performing a reduction operation on the values associated with a given key using the specified downstream Collector.

The classification function maps elements to some key type K. The downstream collector operates on elements of type T and produces a result of type D. The resulting collector produces a Map<K, D>.

There are no guarantees on the type, mutability, serializability, or thread-safety of the Map returned.

For example, to compute the set of last names of people in each city:

Map<City, Set<String>> namesByCity
   = people.stream().collect(
     groupingBy(Person::getCity,
                mapping(Person::getLastName,
                        toSet())));
Implementation Note:
The returned Collector is not concurrent. For parallel stream pipelines, the combiner function operates by merging the keys from one map into another, which can be an expensive operation. If preservation of the order in which elements are presented to the downstream collector is not required, using groupingByConcurrent(Function, Collector) may offer better parallel performance.
Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
K - the type of the keys
A - the intermediate accumulation type of the downstream collector
D - the result type of the downstream reduction
Parameters:
classifier - a classifier function mapping input elements to keys

Returns a Collector implementing a cascaded "group by" operation on input elements of type T, grouping elements according to a classification function, and then performing a reduction operation on the values associated with a given key using the specified downstream Collector. The Map produced by the Collector is created with the supplied factory function.

The classification function maps elements to some key type K. The downstream collector operates on elements of type T and produces a result of type D. The resulting collector produces a Map<K, D>.

For example, to compute the set of last names of people in each city, where the city names are sorted:

Map<City, Set<String>> namesByCity
   = people.stream().collect(
     groupingBy(Person::getCity,
                TreeMap::new,
                mapping(Person::getLastName,

public static <T> Collector<T,​?,​Map<Boolean,​List<T>>> partitioningBy​(Predicate<? super T> predicate)

Returns a Collector which partitions the input elements according to a Predicate, and organizes them into a Map<Boolean, List<T>>. The returned Map always contains mappings for both false and true keys. There are no guarantees on the type, mutability, serializability, or thread-safety of the Map or List returned.

toMap

public static <T,​K,​U> Collector<T,​?,​Map<K,​U>> toMap​(Function<? super T,​? extends K> keyMapper,

Returns a Collector that accumulates elements into a Map whose keys and values are the result of applying the provided mapping functions to the input elements.

If the mapped keys contain duplicates (according to Object.equals(Object)), an IllegalStateException is thrown when the collection operation is performed. If the mapped keys might have duplicates, use toMap(Function, Function, BinaryOperator) instead.

There are no guarantees on the type, mutability, serializability, or thread-safety of the Map returned.

API Note:
It is common for either the key or the value to be the input elements. In this case, the utility method Function.identity() may be helpful. For example, the following produces a Map mapping students to their grade point average:
Map<Student, Double> studentToGPA
   = students.stream().collect(
     toMap(Function.identity(),
           student -> computeGPA(student)));
And the following produces a Map mapping a unique identifier to students:
Map<String, Student> studentIdToStudent
   = students.stream().collect(
     toMap(Student::getId,
           Function.identity()));
Implementation Note:
The returned Collector is not concurrent. For parallel stream pipelines, the combiner function operates by merging the keys from one map into another, which can be an expensive operation. If it is not required that results are inserted into the Map in encounter order, using toConcurrentMap(Function, Function) may offer better parallel performance.
Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
K - the output type of the key mapping function
U - the output type of the value mapping function
Parameters:
keyMapper - a mapping function to produce keys
valueMapper - a mapping function to produce values
Returns:

Returns a Collector that accumulates the input elements into an unmodifiable Map, whose keys and values are the result of applying the provided mapping functions to the input elements.

If the mapped keys contain duplicates (according to Object.equals(Object)), an IllegalStateException is thrown when the collection operation is performed. If the mapped keys might have duplicates, use toUnmodifiableMap(Function, Function, BinaryOperator) to handle merging of the values.

The returned Collector disallows null keys and values. If either mapping function returns null, NullPointerException will be thrown.

Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
K - the output type of the key mapping function
U - the output type of the value mapping function
Parameters:
keyMapper - a mapping function to produce keys, must be non-null
valueMapper - a mapping function to produce values, must be non-null
Returns:
a Collector that accumulates the input elements into an unmodifiable Map, whose keys and values are the result of applying the provided mapping functions to the input elements
Throws:

                                                                                  BinaryOperator<U> mergeFunction)

Returns a Collector that accumulates elements into a Map whose keys and values are the result of applying the provided mapping functions to the input elements.

If the mapped keys contain duplicates (according to Object.equals(Object)), the value mapping function is applied to each equal element, and the results are merged using the provided merging function.

There are no guarantees on the type, mutability, serializability, or thread-safety of the Map returned.

API Note:
There are multiple ways to deal with collisions between multiple elements mapping to the same key. The other forms of toMap simply use a merge function that throws unconditionally, but you can easily write more flexible merge policies. For example, if you have a stream of Person, and you want to produce a "phone book" mapping name to address, but it is possible that two persons have the same name, you can do as follows to gracefully deal with these collisions, and produce a Map mapping names to a concatenated list of addresses:
Map<String, String> phoneBook
   = people.stream().collect(
     toMap(Person::getName,
           Person::getAddress,
           (s, a) -> s + ", " + a));
Implementation Note:
The returned Collector is not concurrent. For parallel stream pipelines, the combiner function operates by merging the keys from one map into another, which can be an expensive operation. If it is not required that results are merged into the Map in encounter order, using toConcurrentMap(Function, Function, BinaryOperator) may offer better parallel performance.
Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
K - the output type of the key mapping function
U - the output type of the value mapping function

The returned Collector is not concurrent. For parallel stream pipelines, the combiner function operates by merging the keys from one map into another, which can be an expensive operation. If it is not required that results are merged into the Map in encounter order, using toConcurrentMap(Function, Function, BinaryOperator, Supplier) may offer better parallel performance.

There are no guarantees on the type, mutability, or serializability of the ConcurrentMap returned.

API Note:
It is common for either the key or the value to be the input elements. In this case, the utility method Function.identity() may be helpful. For example, the following produces a ConcurrentMap mapping students to their grade point average:

toConcurrentMap

public static <T,​K,​U> Collector<T,​?,​ConcurrentMap<K,​U>> toConcurrentMap​(Function<? super T,​? extends K> keyMapper,
                                                                                                      Function<? super T,​? extends U> valueMapper,
                                                                                                      BinaryOperator<U> mergeFunction)

Returns a concurrent Collector that accumulates elements into a ConcurrentMap whose keys and values are the result of applying the provided mapping functions to the input elements.

If the mapped keys contain duplicates (according to Object.equals(Object)), the value mapping function is applied to each equal element, and the results are merged using the provided merging function.

There are no guarantees on the type, mutability, or serializability of the ConcurrentMap returned.

API Note:
There are multiple ways to deal with collisions between multiple elements mapping to the same key. The other forms of toConcurrentMap simply use a merge function that throws unconditionally, but you can easily write more flexible merge policies. For example, if you have a stream of Person, and you want to produce a "phone book" mapping name to address, but it is possible that two persons have the same name, you can do as follows to gracefully deal with these collisions, and produce a ConcurrentMap mapping names to a concatenated list of addresses:
ConcurrentMap<String, String> phoneBook
   = people.stream().collect(
     toConcurrentMap(Person::getName,
                     Person::getAddress,
                     (s, a) -> s + ", " + a));

This is a concurrent and unordered Collector.

Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
K - the output type of the key mapping function
U - the output type of the value mapping function
Parameters:
keyMapper - a mapping function to produce keys
valueMapper - a mapping function to produce values
mergeFunction - a merge function, used to resolve collisions between values associated with the same key, as supplied to Map.merge(Object, Object, BiFunction)
Returns:
a concurrent, unordered Collector which collects elements into a ConcurrentMap whose keys are the result of applying a key mapping function to the input elements, and whose values are the result of applying a value mapping function to all input elements equal to the key and combining them using the merge function

Returns a concurrent Collector that accumulates elements into a ConcurrentMap whose keys and values are the result of applying the provided mapping functions to the input elements.

If the mapped keys contain duplicates (according to Object.equals(Object)), the value mapping function is applied to each equal element, and the results are merged using the provided merging function. The ConcurrentMap is created by a provided supplier function.

This is a concurrent and unordered Collector.

Type Parameters:
T - the type of the input elements
K - the output type of the key mapping function
U - the output type of the value mapping function
M - the type of the resulting ConcurrentMap
Parameters:
keyMapper - a mapping function to produce keys
valueMapper - a mapping function to produce values
mergeFunction - a merge function, used to resolve collisions between values associated with the same key, as supplied to Map.merge(Object, Object, BiFunction)
mapFactory - a supplier providing a new empty ConcurrentMap into which the results will be inserted
Returns:
a concurrent, unordered Collector which collects elements into a ConcurrentMap whose keys are the result of applying a key mapping function to the input elements, and whose values are the result of applying a value mapping function to all input elements equal to the key and combining them using the merge function
