Strongly-typed deep and recursive object merging. Considers all nested levels of objects, arrays, sets and maps.

Package Exports

  • object-deep-merge
  • object-deep-merge/dist/index.js

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 (object-deep-merge) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Forcir Object Deep Merge Logo

Strongly-typed deep and recursive object merging with support for all value types.

Install

pnpm add object-deep-merge
yarn add object-deep-merge
npm install object-deep-merge

Basic Usage

import { merge } from "object-deep-merge";

Simply merge two objects, with no nested properties

const merged = merge({ foo: false }, { bar: true });

console.log({ merged });
Output
{
    "merged": {
        "foo": false,
        "bar": true
    }
}

Typed Usage

merge Type Signature

The merge function accepts two optional type generics. TData and TResult.

function merge<TData extends MergeableObject = MergeableObject, TResult extends MergeableObject = TData>(
    source: TData,
    target: TData,
    ...targets: Array<TData>
): TResult;

[!IMPORTANT]
The Merge and MergeDeep types from type-fest are shipped from this library as a convenience. It is not unreasonable to use those types directly instead.

Without explicitly passing in types the function will infer the shape of the object(s) passed in.

  • Passing in TData will validate the shape of the objects passed in.
  • Passing in TResult will override the output type. While this should be used sparingly, it provides a convenient approach for correctly typing partial types into complete types.

Simple Example w/o Generics

type Data = {
    name: string;
    description: string;
};

const base: Data = { name: "object-deep-merge", description: "merge objects" };

const overrides: Partial<Data> = { description: "merge objects, deeply" };

const merged = merge(base, overrides);

// Type is inferred so the signature becomes:
// function merge<Partial<Data>, Partial<Data>>(source: Partial<Data>, target: Partial<Data>, ...targets: Partial<Data>[]): Partial<Data>

// TData    = Partial<Data>
// TResult  = Data

console.log({ merged });
Output
{
    "merged": {
        "name": "object-deep-merge",
        "description": "merge objects, deeply"
    }
}

Simple Example w/ TData Generic

[!NOTE] Passing in TData will validate the shape of the objects passed in.

type Data = {
    name: string;
    description: string;
};

const base: Data = { name: "object-deep-merge", description: "merge objects" };

const overrides: Partial<Data> = { description: "merge objects, deeply" };

const merged: Partial<Data> = merge<Partial<Data>>(base, overrides);

// TData    = Partial<Data>
// TResult  = Data

console.log({ merged });
Output
{
    "merged": {
        "name": "object-deep-merge",
        "description": "merge objects, deeply"
    }
}

Simple Example w/ TData and TResult Generics

[!NOTE] Passing in TResult will override the output type. While this should be used sparingly, it provides a convenient approach for correctly typing partial types into complete types.

type Data = {
    name: string;
    description: string;
};

const base: Data = { name: "object-deep-merge", description: "merge objects" };

const overrides: Partial<Data> = { description: "merge objects, deeply" };

const merged: Data = merge<Partial<Data>, Data>(base, overrides);

// TData    = Partial<Data>
// TResult  = Data

console.log({ merged });
Output
{
    "merged": {
        "name": "object-deep-merge",
        "description": "merge objects, deeply"
    }
}
