get-value - npm

Use property paths like 'a.b.c' to get a nested value from an object. Even works when keys have dots in them (no other dot-prop library we tested does this, or does it correctly).

Please consider following this project's author, Jon Schlinkert, and consider starring the project to show your ❤️ and support.

Details

Install with npm:

$ npm install --save get-value

See the unit tests for many more examples.

const get = require('get-value');
const obj = { a: { b: { c: { d: 'foo' } } } };

console.log(get(obj));            //=> { a: { b: { c: { d: 'foo' } } } };
console.log(get(obj, 'a'));       //=> { b: { c: { d: 'foo' } } }
console.log(get(obj, 'a.b'));     //=> { c: { d: 'foo' } }
console.log(get(obj, 'a.b.c'));   //=> { d: 'foo' }
console.log(get(obj, 'a.b.c.d')); //=> 'foo'

Unlike other dot-prop libraries, get-value works when keys have dots in them:

console.log(get({ 'a.b': { c: 'd' } }, 'a.b.c'));
//=> 'd'

console.log(get({ 'a.b': { c: { 'd.e': 'f' } } }, 'a.b.c.d.e'));
//=> 'f'
console.log(get({ a: { b: { c: { d: 'foo' } } }, e: [{ f: 'g' }, { f: 'h' }] }, 'e.1.f'));
//=> 'h'

console.log(get({ a: { b: [{ c: 'd' }] } }, 'a.b.0.c'));
//=> 'd'

console.log(get({ a: { b: [{ c: 'd' }, { e: 'f' }] } }, 'a.b.1.e'));
//=> 'f'
function foo() {}
foo.bar = { baz: 'qux' };

console.log(get(foo));
//=> { [Function: foo] bar: { baz: 'qux' } }

console.log(get(foo, 'bar'));
//=> { baz: 'qux' }

console.log(get(foo, 'bar.baz'));
//=> qux
Supports passing object path as an array

Slighly improve performance by passing an array of strings to use as object path segments (this is also useful when you need to dynamically build up the path segments):

console.log(get({ a: { b: 'c' } }, ['a', 'b']));
//=> 'c'

Type: any

Default: undefined

The default value to return when get-value cannot resolve a value from the given object.

const obj = { foo: { a: { b: { c: { d: 'e' } } } } };
console.log(get(obj, 'foo.a.b.c.d', { default: true }));  //=> 'e'
console.log(get(obj, 'foo.bar.baz', { default: true }));  //=> true
console.log(get(obj, 'foo.bar.baz', { default: false })); //=> false
console.log(get(obj, 'foo.bar.baz', { default: null }));  //=> null

// you can also pass the default value as the last argument
// (this is necessary if the default value is an object)
console.log(get(obj, 'foo.a.b.c.d', true));  //=> 'e'
console.log(get(obj, 'foo.bar.baz', true));  //=> true
console.log(get(obj, 'foo.bar.baz', false)); //=> false
console.log(get(obj, 'foo.bar.baz', null));  //=> null

Type: function

Default: true

If defined, this function is called on each resolved value. Useful if you want to do .hasOwnProperty or Object.prototype.propertyIsEnumerable.

const isEnumerable = Object.prototype.propertyIsEnumerable;
const options = {
  isValid: (key, obj) => isEnumerable.call(obj, key)
};

const obj = {};
Object.defineProperty(obj, 'foo', { value: 'bar', enumerable: false });

console.log(get(obj, 'foo', options));           //=> undefined
console.log(get({}, 'hasOwnProperty', options)); //=> undefined
console.log(get({}, 'constructor', options));    //=> undefined

// without "isValid" check
console.log(get(obj, 'foo', options));           //=> bar
console.log(get({}, 'hasOwnProperty', options)); //=> [Function: hasOwnProperty]
console.log(get({}, 'constructor', options));    //=> [Function: Object]

Type: function

Default: String.split()

Custom function to use for splitting the string into object path segments.

const obj = { 'a.b': { c: { d: 'e' } } };

// example of using a string to split the object path
const options = { split: path => path.split('/') };
console.log(get(obj, 'a.b/c/d', options)); //=> 'e'

// example of using a regex to split the object path
// (removing escaped dots is unnecessary, this is just an example)
const options = { split: path => path.split(/\\?\./) };
console.log(get(obj, 'a\\.b.c.d', options)); //=> 'e'

Type: string|regex

Default: .

The separator to use for spliting the string (this is probably not needed when options.split is used).

const obj = { 'a.b': { c: { d: 'e' } } };

console.log(get(obj, 'a.b/c/d', { separator: '/' }));
//=> 'e'

console.log(get(obj, 'a\\.b.c.d', { separator: /\\?\./ }));
//=> 'e'

Type: function

Default: Array.join()

Customize how the object path is created when iterating over path segments.

const obj = { 'a/b': { c: { d: 'e' } } };
const options = {
  // when segs === ['a', 'b'] use a "/" to join, otherwise use a "."
  join: segs => segs.join(segs[0] === 'a' ? '/' : '.')
};

console.log(get(obj, 'a.b.c.d', options));
//=> 'e'

Type: string

Default: .

The character to use when re-joining the string to check for keys with dots in them (this is probably not needed when options.join is used). This can be a different value than the separator, since the separator can be a string or regex.

const target = { 'a-b': { c: { d: 'e' } } };
const options = { joinChar: '-' };
console.log(get(target, 'a.b.c.d', options));
//=> 'e'

(benchmarks were run on a MacBook Pro 2.5 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3).

get-value is more reliable and has more features than dot-prop, without sacrificing performance.
