Generate safe JS code that can used to reference a object property
The generate-object-property npm package is a utility that helps in generating JavaScript object property access strings. It is particularly useful for creating dynamic property accessors in a safe and efficient manner.
Generate Property Access String
This feature allows you to generate a string that can be used to access a property on an object. It ensures that the property name is safely quoted if necessary.
const generate = require('generate-object-property');
const obj = {};
const prop = 'foo';
const value = 'bar';
const propString = generate(obj, prop);
console.log(propString); // Outputs: obj["foo"]
Dynamic Property Access
This feature demonstrates how you can dynamically set a property on an object using the generated property access string.
const generate = require('generate-object-property');
const obj = {};
const prop = 'foo';
const value = 'bar';
const propString = generate(obj, prop);
eval(propString + ' = value;');
console.log(obj.foo); // Outputs: bar
Lodash is a modern JavaScript utility library delivering modularity, performance, and extras. It provides a wide range of utility functions, including methods for deep property access and manipulation, which can be used similarly to generate-object-property but with more extensive functionality.
Dot-prop is a package that allows you to get, set, or delete a property from a nested object using a dot path. It provides a more straightforward API for accessing and manipulating nested properties compared to generate-object-property.
Object-path is a tiny JavaScript utility to access deep properties using a path string. It offers similar functionality to generate-object-property but focuses more on deep property access and manipulation.
