You've been there. You get some json from the server in eww state and you 'litteraly can't even'.

var object = {          
    'Queue Name'    : 'wsh1',                   // < Umm spaces on names sux
    'Printer Name'  : 'WSH Browsing Library 1', //   cuz we can't be like
    'Printer Model' : 'Xerox Phaser 4510DT',    //   object.printer_model /:
    'Color'         : 'B/W',                    // < Should be a boolean tho
    'DPI'           : '600',                    // < Ugh... strings smh
    'Duplex'        : 'Two-sided',              // < Could be a boolean too.
    '¢/Pg'          : '9'                       // < '¢/Pg'? ru kidding me?
}

// 
// ^--- Eww. What the hell is up with this data.
// 

Behold the mighty obender.

Obender does.

Obender's got a mighty remap function.

obender(object)
    .remap({
        'Queue Name' :  'queue_name',
        'Printer Name'   :  'printer_name',
        'Printer Model'  :  'printer_model',
    });

// >> { queue_name: 'wsh1',
//      printer_name: 'WSH Browsing Library 1',
//      printer_model: 'Xerox Phaser 4510DT',
//      'Color': 'B/W',
//      'DPI': '600',
//      'Duplex': 'Two-sided',
//      '¢/Pg': '9'
// }

It's mightier still.

obender(object)
    .remap({

        'dpi'    : {'dpi'    : parseInt },

        'Color'  : {'color'  : function (value) { 
                            return value === 'Color'; } },
        
        'Duplex' : {'duplex' : function (value) { 
                            return value === "Two-sided"; } },
        
        '¢/Pg'   : {'price'  : function (value) { 
                            return parseFloat(value) / 100; } }
    });

// >> { queue_name: 'wsh1',
//      printer_name: 'WSH Browsing Library 1',
//      printer_model: 'Xerox Phaser 4510DT',
//      color: false,
//      dpi: 600,
//      duplex: true,
//      price_per_page: 0.09
// }

It's also got a mighty forEach function.

var object = {
    'First Name'  : 'Severus',
    'Last Name'   : 'Potter',
    'Wand'        : null
}

obender(object)
    .forEach(function(property) {
        property.key = property.key.toLowerCase().replace(/\w/, "_");

        if (property.value === null) 
            property.delete();
    });

// >> { first_name: 'Severus',
//      last_name: 'Potter',
// }

Obender likes escaping objects. He did it before it was cool.

Obender matches.

var object = {
    'Name'              : 'Functional Programming and Data Structures',
    'Subject'           : 'CS',
    'Catalog Number'    : '3110',
    'Grading Basis'     : 'Student Opt.',
    'Units'             : 4,
    'Class Description' : ''
}
    
// Returns all the keys with whitespace.
obender(object)
    .match(/\w/)
    .keys();        


// >> ["Catalog Number", "Grading Basis", "Class Description"] 

You can also do stuff with those keys.

var object = {
    'real_name' : 'Bruce',,
    'real_last_name' : 'Wayne',
    'super_name' : 'Batman',
    'super_song' : 'Nananananananananananananananana! Batman!'
}

// Deletes all properties without 'super' on their keys.
obender(object)
    .match(\^((?!super).)*$\)
    .delete();

// >> { 'super_name' : 'Batman',
//      'super_song' : 'Nananananananananananananananana! Batman!'
// } 

And chain methods, of course.

var object = {          
    'Queue Name'    : 'wsh1',
    'Printer Name'  : 'WSH Browsing Library 1',
    'Printer Model' : 'Xerox Phaser 4510DT',
    'Color'         : 'B/W',
    'DPI'           : '600',
    'Duplex'        : 'Two-sided',
    '¢/Pg'          : '9'
}

obender(object)

    // Deletes all properties except those whith whitespace and "Color"
    .match(/\w/)
    .unmatch(\Color\)
    .delete()

    // Escapes the ones with 'Name'
    .match(\Name\)
    .forEach(function (property) {
        property.key = property.key.toLowerCase().replace(/\w/, "_");
    });

    // >> { queue_name: 'wsh1',
    //      printer_name: 'WSH Browsing Library 1',
    //      'Color': 'B/W'
    // }
