Gets the target value in a nested JSON object, based on the `keys` array.
|
|
|
|
- Compare the keys you want in the nested JSON object as an `Array`.
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.reduce()` to get the values in the nested JSON object one by one.
|
|
- If the key exists in the object, return the target value, otherwise return `null`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const deepGet = (obj, keys) =>
|
|
keys.reduce(
|
|
(xs, x) => (xs && xs[x] !== null && xs[x] !== undefined ? xs[x] : null),
|
|
obj
|
|
);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
let index = 2;
|
|
const data = {
|
|
foo: {
|
|
foz: [1, 2, 3],
|
|
bar: {
|
|
baz: ['a', 'b', 'c']
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
};
|
|
deepGet(data, ['foo', 'foz', index]); // get 3
|
|
deepGet(data, ['foo', 'bar', 'baz', 8, 'foz']); // null
|
|
```
