dotfast

Dotfast is a function that allows you to enter an object, by means of points, and very easily, and is compatible with typescript

Installation

First we will have to install, in order to use this wonderful package.

# Using npm
npm install --save dotfast

# Using yarn
yarn add dotfast

Usage

First we import the function, as follows, You can call the function as d or also as dotfast

// For Typescript
import dotfast from 'dotfast';
// Or
import { d } from 'dotfast';

// For Javascript
const dotfast = require('dotfast');
// or
const { d } = require('dotfast');

• First we create an object with data, for this example !

const data = {
   app: {
      name: 'Dotfast',
      port: 8080,
      db: {
         dialect: 'mysql',
         localhost: 'localhost',
         username: 'root',
         password: '',
         port: 3306,
         tables: [
            {
               name: 'first_table',
            },
            {
               name: 'second_table',
            },
         ],
      },
   },
};

d(data, 'app.db.tables[0].name');
// => first_table

d(data, 'app.port');
//=> 8080

d(data, 'app.url');
//=> undefined

// Default option
d(data, 'app.url', 'http://website.com');
//=> http://website.com

Array return

dotfast also allows to return several selections, within an array

d(data, ['app.port', 'app.db.port', 'app.name', 'app.db.tables[0]']);
//=> [8080, 3306, "Application", {name: "first_table"}]

• Let's try ES6+ or typescript

const [appPort, dbPort, appName, firstTable] = d(data, [
   'app.port',
   'app.db.port',
   'app.name',
   'app.db.tables[0]',
]);
/**
 * appPort => 8080
 * dbPort => 3306
 * appName => "Application"
 * firstTable => {name: "first_table"}
 * */

Object return

dotfast also returns as an object !

d(data, {
   appPort: 'app.port',
   dbPort: "app.db.port",
   appName: 'app.name',
   secondTable: 'app.db.tables[1]',
});
/**
 * {
 *    appPort: 8080,
 *    dbPort: 3306,
 *    appName: "Application",
 *    secondTable: {name: "secondTable"}
 * }
 * *

• Let's try ES6+ or typescript

const { appPort, dbPort, appName } = d(data, {
   appPort: 'app.port',
   dbPort: 'app.db.port',
   appName: 'app.name',
   secondTable: 'app.db.tables[1]',
});

/**
 * appPort => 8080
 * dbPort => 3306
 * appName => "Application",
 * secondTable => {name: "secondTable"}
 * */
