Missing dissocIn.

[ngbrown]

Just as dissoc is the pair to assoc but removes a key, dissocIn should be the pair to assocIn and remove the key at the end of a path (passed as an array).

I'm keeping an eye on this: http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1063

There's an open question as to whether empty arrays/objects in the hierarchy would be dissoc'd as well.

In the meantime you can use i.assocIn(obj, path, undefined) or i.updateIn(obj, path, (obj) => i.dissoc(obj, prop) );

+1 for this API

@neekey Should

i.dissocIn({
  a: {
    b: {
      c: 1
    },
  a2: 1
}, ['a', 'b', 'c'])`

return

{
  a: {
    b: {}
  },
  a2: 1
}

or

{
  a2: 1
}

(e.g. should it remove intermediate empty collections)

[neekey]

hi @aearly I think it shouldn't remove intermediate empty collections. It's kind of an unexpected behavior if it does so.

In a normal delete scene, it will keep the empty collections:

const obj = { a: { b: 1 } };
delete obj.a.b;
console.log( obj.a ); // output: '{}'

Hi @aearly any progress for this feature?

[aearly]

I haven't decided what to do exactly. It's not pressing since there's a workaround.
