hoothoot hoothoot hoothoot.
you don't need to worry when you work with nested data.
npm install hoothoot --save
yarn add hoothoot
Remember to install lodash also :D
It will take a path which has shape like:
a.b
a[0].b
a[{selector=value}].b
[0].b
[{selector=value}].b
And normalize it to a string that lodash get set can understand
Syntax : .key
a.b.c.d
Syntax : [{selector=value}] or [index]
[0].[1].b
[{a.b=value}]
