lodash.set
Advanced tools
Package description
The lodash.set package is a method from the Lodash library that allows users to set the value at a given path of an object. It can create nested objects if the path does not exist and can handle array indexes within the path.
Set property value on object
Sets the value of property 'c' to 4 in the object at the path 'a.b.c'.
{"object": {"a": {"b": {"c": 3}}}, "path": "a.b.c", "value": 4}Create nested objects
Creates a nested structure within the object if it does not exist and sets the value at the specified path.
{"object": {}, "path": "a[0].b.c", "value": 4}Handle array indexes
Sets the value at a path that includes an array index, modifying the existing array element.
{"object": {"a": [{"b": {"c": 3}}]}, "path": "a[0].b.c", "value": 4}The dot-prop package allows users to get, set, or delete properties from a nested object using a dot path. Unlike lodash.set, dot-prop does not depend on the full Lodash library and is a smaller package focused on property manipulation.
Deepdash is an extension for Lodash that adds deep object manipulation capabilities. It offers similar functionality to lodash.set but with additional methods for deep traversal and manipulation of objects and arrays.
Object-path is another utility that provides a simple way to get and set deep values in an object using a string path. It is similar to lodash.set but is a standalone package that does not rely on Lodash.
