Usage
Also see the documentation and
example.
var dotty = require("dotty");
var object = {
a: {
b: {
x: "y",
},
c: {
x: "z",
},
},
};
console.log(dotty.exists(object, "a.b.x"));
console.log(dotty.exists(object, ["a", "b", "x"]));
console.log(dotty.exists(object, "a.b.z"));
console.log(dotty.exists(object, ["a", "b", "z"]));
console.log(dotty.get(object, "a.b.x"));
console.log(dotty.get(object, ["a", "b", "x"]));
console.log(dotty.get(object, "a.b.z"));
console.log(dotty.get(object, ["a", "b", "z"]));
dotty.put(object, "a.b.hello", "hi");
dotty.put(object, ["a", "c", "yo"], "sup");
console.log(dotty.search(object, "a.b.*"));
console.log(dotty.search(object, ["a", "b", "*"]));
console.log(dotty.search(object, "a.*.x"));
console.log(dotty.search(object, ["a", "*", "x"]));
console.log(dotty.search(object, ["a", "*", /..+/]));
console.log(dotty.remove(object, "a.b.x"));
console.log(dotty.remove(object, "a.b.y"));
console.log(dotty.deepKeys(object));
console.log(dotty.deepKeys(object).map(function(e) { return e.join("."); }));
console.log(object);
