Creates a shallow clone of any JavaScript value.

Package Exports

  • shallow-clone

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

Arrays

By default, only the array itself is cloned (shallow), use clone-deep if you also need the elements in the array to be cloned.

const arr = [{ a: 0 }, { b: 1 }];
const foo = clone(arr);
// foo =>  [{ 'a': 0 }, { 'b': 1 }]

// array is cloned
assert(actual === expected); // false

// array elements are not
assert.deepEqual(actual[0], expected[0]); // true

Objects

Only the object is shallow cloned, use clone-deep if you also need the values in the object to be cloned.

console.log(clone({ a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 }));
//=> {a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 }

RegExp

Clones regular expressions and flags, and preserves the .lastIndex.

const regex = clone(/foo/g); //=> /foo/g
// you can manually reset lastIndex if necessary
regex.lastIndex = 0;

Primitives

Simply returns primitives unchanged.

clone(0); //=> 0
clone('foo'); //=> 'foo'
