ofl v1.0.1

ofl

Convertion between nested object and flat one with delimited keys. Yet another flatten/unflatten module with few differences:

• no undefined values allowed
• only primitives in arrays (no nested arrays and so on)
• only plain objects
• empty objects are ignored when flatten
• only own and enumerable fields counts when flatten
• no key conflicts allowed in flat object
• no delimiter string in any key in nested object

It is intended to be useful for work with well-serializable config data.

Install

npm install ofl

Usage

const {
    flatten, //convert nested object to flat
    unflatten, //convert flat object to nested
    patch, //cange some fields in flat object
    validKeys, //test if array of keys are valid for flat object
    validValues,  //test if array of values are valid for flat object
} = require('ofl');

flatObj = flatten(nestedObj, delimiter);
nestedObj = unflatten(flatObj, delimiter);
//throw error if inappropriate object sent
//delimiter is optional, defaults to '.'

patchedFlatObj = patch(flatObj, diffFlatObj);
//throw error if diffFlatObj keys is not subset of flatObj keys

validKeys(Object.keys(flatObj));
validValues(Object.values(flatObj));
//throw error if inappropriate key or value
