dotaccess
A library to access objects using dot notation strings. For example:
var dotaccess = require('dotaccess')
var obj = {
answer: 42,
deep: {
trench: 43,
'funky names': 44,
'including a .': 45
}
}
// prints 42
console.log(dotaccess.get(obj, 'answer'))
// prints 43
console.log(dotaccess.get(obj, 'deep.trench'))
// can use an array of part names also prints 43
console.log(dotaccess.get(obj, ['deep', 'trench']))
// prints 44, spaces are allowed
console.log(dotaccess.get(obj, 'deep.funky names'))
// overwrite existing values
dotaccess.set(obj, 'deep.funky names', 99, true)
// can also set stuff
dotaccess.set(obj, 'deep.an even funkier_name', 'green')
