### unflattenObject
|
||||
|
||||
Unlatten an object with the paths for keys.
|
||||
|
||||
Use `Object.keys(obj)` combined with `Array.reduce()` to convert flattened path node to a leaf node.
|
||||
If the value of a key contains a dot delimiter (`.`), use `Array.split('.')`, string transformations and `JSON.parse()` to create an object, then `Object.assign()` to create the leaf node.
|
||||
Otherwise, add the appropriate key-value pair to the accumulator object.
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
const unflattenObject = obj =>
|
||||
Object.keys(obj).reduce((acc, k) => {
|
||||
if (k.indexOf('.') !== -1) {
|
||||
const keys = k.split('.');
|
||||
Object.assign(
|
||||
acc,
|
||||
JSON.parse(
|
||||
'{' +
|
||||
keys
|
||||
.map((v, i) => (i !== keys.length - 1 ? `"${v}":{` : `"${v}":`))
|
||||
.join('') +
|
||||
obj[k] +
|
||||
'}'.repeat(keys.length)
|
||||
)
|
||||
);
|
||||
} else acc[k] = obj[k];
|
||||
return acc;
|
||||
}, {});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
unflattenObject({ 'a.b.c': 1, d: 1 }); // { a: { b: { c: 1 } }, d: 1 }
|
||||
```
