Deep Map

Install | Usage | API | TypeScript | License

Deep Map recurses through an object and transforms its primitive values – including nested values – according to some function. Essentially, it's a deep version of Array.prototype.map() that works on all objects rather than just on Arrays. Circular references are supported.

To transform the keys of an object rather than its values, use Deep Map Keys.

Install

Install Deep Map via npm.

npm install --save deep-map

Usage

Let's say we have an object like this:

const info = {
  name: '<%- name %>',
  email: '<%- email %>',
  keywords: ['<%- keyword1 %>', '<%- keyword2 %>'],
  hobbies: {
    primary: '<%- hobby1 %>',
    secondary: '<%- hobby2 %>'
  }
};

And we want to fill it with this data:

const data = {
  name: 'Samuel Johnson',
  email: 'sam.johnson@dictionary.com',
  keyword1: 'dictionary',
  keyword2: 'lexicography',
  hobby1: 'writing',
  hobby2: 'torying',
};

We can use Deep Map like this:

const deepMap = require('deep-map');
const template = require('lodash/template');

let result = deepMap(info, value => template(value)(data));

And the result looks like this:

{
  name: 'Samuel Johnson',
  email: 'sam.johnson@dictionary.com',
  keywords: ['dictionary', 'lexicography'],
  hobbies: {
    primary: 'writing',
    secondary: 'torying'
  }
}

API

`deepMap(object, mapFn, [options])`

Parameters

Param	Type	Description
object	`any`	The object whose values are to be transformed. Typically, this will be a complex object containing other nested objects. This object may be an `Array`, and may contain nested arrays whose values will be deeply transformed in the same way. The object may contain circular references.
mapFn	`function`	The function used to transform each primitive value. The function is called with two arguments: value <`any`> The value being transformed. key <`string \| number`> The key or index of the value being transformed. In the case of plain objects, this will be a string; in the case of arrays, this will be a number. The return value determines the value at the same position on the resulting object.
[options]	`object`	An optional options object. The following options are accepted: inPlace <`boolean=false`> Mutate `object` rather than constructing a new object. Nested objects will also be mutated. thisArg <`any=undefined`> Sets the value of `this` within `mapFn()`.

Returns

Returns a new object with the same keys as object. If options.inPlace is set to true, the original object is returned, mutated.

TypeScript

TypeScript declarations are included in the package. Just import the module, and things will just work.

By default, the compiler will assume that the return value will have the same shape as the input object. In most use cases, this is likely to be true. But in some cases – like the one below – the assumption breaks down.

function isPositive(n: number): boolean {
  return n >= 0;
}

// COMPILER ERROR: number not assignable to boolean :(
let bool: boolean = deepMap({n: 2}, isPositive).n;

Pass a type argument to describe the shape of the return value, and everything will be happy.

let bool: boolean = deepMap<{n: boolean}>({n: 2}, isPositive).n; // :)
