Package Exports

deep-map-keys

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (deep-map-keys) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Deep Map Keys

Install | Usage | API | TypeScript | License

Deep Map Keys recurses through an object and transforms its keys – and the keys of any nested objects – according to some function. Circular references are supported.

To transform the values of an object rather than its keys, use Deep Map.

Install

Install Deep Map Keys via npm.

npm install --save deep-map-keys

Usage

Suppose we want to change the keys of an object from snake case to camel case. We can do something like this:

const deepMapKeys = require('deep-map-keys');

let comment = {
  comment_id: 42,
  user_id: 1024,
  user_name: 'Mufasa',
  content: 'You deliberately disobeyed me.',
  viewed_by: [
    { user_id: 3820, user_name: 'Rafiki' },
    { user_id: 8391, user_name: 'Zazu' }
  ]
};

function snakeToCamel(key) {
  return key.replace(/_(\w)/g, (match, char) => char.toUpperCase());
}

let result = deepMapKeys(comment, snakeToCamel);

And the result will look like this:

{
  commentId: 42,
  userId: 1024,
  userName: 'Mufasa',
  content: 'You deliberately disobeyed me.',
  viewedBy: [
    { userId: 3820, userName: 'Rafiki' },
    { userId: 8391, userName: 'Zazu' }
  ]
}

API

`deepMapKeys(object, mapFn, [options])`

Parameters

Param	Type	Description
object	`any`	The object whose keys are to be transformed. Typically, this will be a complex object containing other nested objects. This object may be an `Array`, in which case the keys of any objects it contains will be transformed. The object may contain circular references.
mapFn	`function`	The function used to transform each key. The function is called with two arguments: key <`string`> The key being transformed value <`any`> The value of the node whose key is being transformed The return value determines the new name of the key, and must therefore be a string.
[options]	`object`	An optional options object. The following option is accepted: thisArg <`any=undefined`> Sets the value of `this` within `mapFn()`

Returns

Returns a new object.

TypeScript

TypeScript declarations are included in the package. Just import the module, and things will just work.

The shape of the returned object cannot be inferred from the inputs; however it can be defined by passing a single type argument.

interface Result {
  userName: string;
}

let result = deepMapKeys<Result>({user_name: 'Pumbaa'}, snakeToCamel);

let name = result.userName; // Everything is OK :)
