Generates a js object of random width and depth
Installation
npm install random-object
Import
// require
var rand = require('random-object');
// ES6 import
import { randomObject } from 'random-object';
Usage
const rand = randomObject(width, depth)
Generates a javascript object of a given width and depth. Width indicating the number of object keys and depth indicating the number of nested objects. The generated object will always contain one object of the specified object depth and all other nested objects will be of depth less than or equal to the specified depth. All keys and values are length 5 randomized alphanumeric strings.
// Examples
> const rand = randomObject(0, 1)
> rand
{}
> const rand = randomObject(1, 0)
> rand
{ H13Q9: '81C0B' }
> const rand = randomObject(1, 1)
> rand
{ '0TB0G': { D8U6L: 'X67ZP' } }
> const rand = randomObject(1, 2)
> rand
{ '1RIC6': { CY4JC: { '0UHR5': 'DDWYD' } } }
> const rand = randomObject(2, 2)
> rand
{ P2M2U: { TY4S2: { YT4SE: 'XGBU2' } }, Q1P3O: 'NGX33' }
// note: console.log will not print out any object depth >= 3 instead defaulting to the [Object] representation
If no parameters are provided a randomized width and depth <= 10 will be generated
