PropertyHandler

A simpler way to manage your object properties values

Installation:

npm i -D property-handler

Usage:

Import the module property-handler:

import propertyHandler from 'property-handler'

There are two ways for finding object property value, directly by calling the name of the property or via string like 'foo.bar'

By using the name directly:

Get object property value:

const data = {
    foo: 'bar',
    barbaz: [
        {
            id: 0,
            name: 'baar'
        },
        {
            id: 1,
            name: 'fooo'
        }
    ]
}
propertyHandler.getProp(data, 'foo') // => bar

You can use the same implementation for arrays:

const data = {
    foo: 'bar',
    barbaz: [
        {
            id: 0,
            name: 'baar'
        },
        {
            id: 1,
            name: 'fooo'
        }
    ]
}
propertyHandler.getProp(data, 'barbaz') // => [ {id: 0, name: 'baar'}, {id: 1, name: 'fooo'} ]

It also powerful if we want to get all values of a property name present in multiple levels:

const data = [
    {
        "first_name": "foo",
        "email": "[email protected]"
    }, 
    {
        "first_name": "baar",
        "email": "[email protected]"
    },
    {
        "first_name": "barbaz",
        "email": "[email protected]"
    }
]
propertyHandler.getProp(data, 'first_name') // => Array ["foo", "baar", "barbaz"]

By using dot string:

const data = {
    foo: 'bar',
    barbaz: [
        {
            id: 0,
            name: 'baar'
        },
        {
            id: 1,
            name: 'fooo'
        }
    ]
}
propertyHandler.getProp(data, 'barbaz.1.name') // => fooo

const data = [
    {
        "first_name": "foo",
        "email": "[email protected]"
    }, 
    {
        "first_name": "baar",
        "email": "[email protected]"
    },
    {
        "first_name": "barbaz",
        "email": "[email protected]"
    }
]
propertyHandler.getProp(data, '1.first_name') // => baar
