modifyjs

Modify your objects with a mongo like syntax. This is mostly forked code of a modify function of Meteor's brilliant minimongo package, changed to work without Meteor context, and included nice, readable tests based on a mongodb documentation.

Usage

The usage is shown in the src/modify.test.js file, but to show a simple example:

import modify from 'modifyjs';
  
const myObject = { _id: 1, scores: [ 0, 2, 5, 5, 1, 0 ] };

const updatedObject = modify(myObject, {$pullAll: {scores: [0, 5]}});

const expectedObject = {_id: 1, scores: [2, 1]};
expect(updatedObject).toEqual(expectedObject);
