What are is-boolean-object's main functionalities?

Check if a value is a boolean object

This feature allows you to check if a given value is a boolean object. The code sample demonstrates how to use the is-boolean-object package to differentiate between primitive boolean values and boolean objects.

const isBooleanObject = require('is-boolean-object');

console.log(isBooleanObject(true)); // false
console.log(isBooleanObject(false)); // false
console.log(isBooleanObject(new Boolean(true))); // true
console.log(isBooleanObject(new Boolean(false))); // true

lodash.isboolean

The lodash.isboolean package is part of the Lodash library and checks if a value is a boolean primitive. It is similar to is-boolean but is part of a larger utility library, offering more functionality beyond just type checking.

is-primitive

var assert = require('assert');

assert.notOk(isBoolean(undefined));
assert.notOk(isBoolean(null));
assert.notOk(isBoolean('foo'));
assert.notOk(isBoolean(function () {}));
assert.notOk(isBoolean([]));
assert.notOk(isBoolean({}));
assert.notOk(isBoolean(/a/g));
assert.notOk(isBoolean(new RegExp('a', 'g')));
assert.notOk(isBoolean(new Date()));
assert.notOk(isBoolean(42));
assert.notOk(isBoolean(NaN));
assert.notOk(isBoolean(Infinity));

assert.ok(isBoolean(new Boolean(42)));
assert.ok(isBoolean(false));
assert.ok(isBoolean(Object(false)));
assert.ok(isBoolean(true));
assert.ok(isBoolean(Object(true)));
