Build an array of key paths from an object.
Please consider following this project's author, Brian Woodward, and consider starring the project to show your ❤️ and support.
Install with npm:
$ npm install --save stringify-keys
var stringify = require('stringify-keys');
var obj = { a: 'a', b: { c: { d: { e: 'f' } } } };
console.log(stringify(obj));
//=> [ 'a', 'b.c.d.e', 'b.c.d', 'b.c', 'b' ]
Keys with dots are automatically escaped with backslashes (this can be customized):
var obj = { 'a.b.c': { d: 'e' } };
console.log(stringify(obj));
//=> [ 'a\\.b\\.c.d', 'a\\.b\\.c' ]
Type: string
Default: .
Custom separator to use for creating object paths (a.b.c
):
Example
var obj = { 'a.b.c': { d: 'e' } };
console.log(stringify(obj, { separator: '/' }));
//=> [ 'a.b.c/d', 'a.b.c' ]
Type: function
Default: adds \\
before dots
Custom function to use for escaping keys.
Example
var obj = { 'a.b.c': { d: 'e' } };
var result = stringify(obj, {
escape: str => str.split('.').join('/')
});
console.log(result);
//=> [ 'a/b/c.d', 'a/b/c' ]
