I am available for full-time remote positions. # Install npm install wild-wild-path This package works in both Node.js \>=18.18.0 and [browsers](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ehmicky/dev-tasks/main/src/browserslist). This is an ES module. It must be loaded using [an `import` or `import()` statement](https://gist.github.com/sindresorhus/a39789f98801d908bbc7ff3ecc99d99c), not `require()`. If TypeScript is used, it must be configured to [output ES modules](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/esm-node.html), not CommonJS. # API ## Methods ### get(target, query, options?) `target`: [`Target`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#target) `query`: [`Query`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#queries) `options`: [`Options?`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#options) _Return value_: `any | undefined` Return the first property matching the `query`. const target = { settings: { colors: [‘red’, ‘blue’] } } get(target, ‘settings.colors.0’) // ‘red’ get(target, [‘settings’, ‘colors’, 0]) // ‘red’ ### has(target, query, options?) `target`: [`Target`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#target) `query`: [`Query`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#queries) `options`: [`Options?`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#options) _Return value_: `boolean` Return whether the `query` matches any property. const target = { settings: { lastName: undefined, colors: [‘red’, ‘blue’] } } has(target, ‘settings.firstName’) // false has(target, [‘settings’, ‘firstName’]) // false has(target, ‘settings.lastName’) // true ### list(target, query, options?) `target`: [`Target`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#target) `query`: [`Query`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#queries) `options`: [`Options?`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#options) _Return value_: `any[]` Return all properties matching the `query`, as an array. const target = { userOne: { firstName: ‘John’, lastName: ‘Doe’, age: 72 }, userTwo: { firstName: ‘Alice’, colors: [‘red’, ‘blue’, ‘yellow’] }, } list(target, ‘userOne.firstName userTwo.colors.0’) // [‘John’, ‘red’] list(target, [[‘userOne’, ‘firstName’], [‘userTwo’, ‘colors’, 0], ]) // [‘John’, ‘red’] list(target, ‘userOne./Name/’) // [‘John’, ‘Doe’] list(target, [‘userOne’, /Name/]) // [‘John’, ‘Doe’] list(target, ‘userTwo.colors._') // [‘red’, ‘blue’, ‘yellow’] list(target, ‘userTwo.colors.0:2’) // [‘red’, ‘blue’] list(target, ‘\*\*.firstName’) // [‘John’, ‘Alice’] list(target, 'userOne._’, { entries: true }) // [// { value: ‘John’, path: [‘userOne’, ‘firstName’], missing: false }, // { value: ‘Doe’, path: [‘userOne’, ‘lastName’], missing: false }, // { value: 72, path: [‘userOne’, ‘age’], missing: false }, // ] ### iterate(target, query, options?) `target`: [`Target`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#target) `query`: [`Query`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#queries) `options`: [`Options?`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#options) _Return value_: [`Iterable`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Iteration_protocols#examples_using_the_iteration_protocols) Return all properties matching the `query`, as an [iterable](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Iteration_protocols#examples_using_the_iteration_protocols).

Also, they do not require escaping, so they should be used when the input is dynamic or user-provided to prevent injection attacks. ### Query strings #### ⛏ Deep properties # Deep properties of objects or arrays. # Dots are used for array indices, not brackets. # Symbol properties are always ignored. user.colors.0 #### 🚂 Unions # Unions (“or”) of queries are space-delimited. # The string must not be empty. colors name age #### ⭐ Wildcards # Shallow wildcards target all properties/items of a single object/array user.\* # Deep wildcards target all properties/items of 0, 1 or many objects/arrays user.\*\* \*\*.colors #### 🗺 Regexps # Regexps match property names user./name/ # Flags can be used, e.g. to make it case-insensitive user./name/i # ^ $ must be used to match from the beginning or until the end user./^name$/i #### 🌵 Arrays indices # Array indices are integers user.colors.0 # Array indices can be negative. # -1 is the last item. # -0 is the item after it, which can be used to append. user.colors.-1 #### 🏜 Array slices # Array slices. Goes from the start (included) to the end index (excluded). user.colors.0:2 # The start index defaults to 0, i.e. the beginning user.colors.:2 # The end index defaults to -0, i.e. the end user.colors.0: user.colors.: #### 🪨 Escaping # Dots, spaces and backslashes in property names must be escaped name\ with\ spaces name\.with\.dots name\\with\\backslashes # Ambiguous property names must be escaped with a backslash at the beginning. # This includes properties that: # - Are integers but are not array elements # - Have multiple slashes and start with one name.\0 name.\/not\_a\_regexp/ #### 🏨 Root and empty strings # A leading dot can optionally be used. It is ignored. user.colors .user.colors # Root value . # Empty string properties user..colors ### Query arrays #### ⛏ Deep properties // Deep properties of objects or arrays. // Symbol properties are always ignored. [‘user’, ‘colors’, 0] #### 🚂 Unions // Unions (“or”) of queries are arrays of arrays. // There must be at least one item. [[‘colors’], [‘name’], [‘age’]] #### ⭐ Wildcards // Shallow wildcards target all properties/items of a single object/array [‘user’, { type: ‘any’ }] // Deep wildcards target all properties/items of 0, 1 or many objects/arrays [‘user’, { type: ‘anyDeep’ }] [{ type: ‘anyDeep’ }, ‘colors’] #### 🤠 Regexps // Regexps match property names [‘user’, /name/] // Flags can be used, e.g. to make it case-insensitive [‘user’, /name/i] // ^ $ must be used to match from the beginning or until the end [‘user’, /^name$/i] #### 🌵 Arrays indices // Array indices are integers, not strings [‘user’, ‘colors’, 0] // Array indices can be negative. // -1 is the last item. // -0 is the item after it, which can be used to append.

[‘user’, ‘colors’, { type: ‘slice’, from: 0, to: 2 }] // The start index defaults to 0, i.e. the beginning [‘user’, ‘colors’, { type: ‘slice’, to: 2 }] // The end index defaults to -0, i.e. the end [‘user’, ‘colors’, { type: ‘slice’, from: 0 }] [‘user’, ‘colors’, { type: ‘slice’ }] #### 🪨 Escaping // Escaping is not necessary with query arrays [‘name with spaces’] [‘name.with.dots’] [‘name\with\backslashes’] [‘name’, ‘0’] [‘name’, ‘/not\_a\_regexp/’] #### 🏨 Root and empty strings // Root value // Empty string properties [‘user’, ‘’, ‘colors’] ### Paths A “path” is any [query](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#queries) using only [property names](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#%EF%B8%8F-deep-properties) and positive [array indices](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-arrays-indices). This excludes [negative indices](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-arrays-indices), [slices](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#%EF%B8%8F-array-slices), [wildcards](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-wildcards), [regexps](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#%EF%B8%8F-regexps) and [unions](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-unions). Paths are returned by the [`entries`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#entries) option. # Path string user.colors.0 // Path array [‘user’, ‘colors’, 0] ### Conversions and comparisons [`wild-wild-parser`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-parser) can be used to convert between both formats, or to compare queries. ### Undefined values Object properties with a defined key but an `undefined` value are not ignored. However, object properties without any defined key are ignored. The [`has()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#hastarget-query-options) method, [`missing`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#missing) option and [`entries`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#entries) option can be used to distinguish those. const target = { name: undefined } has(target, ‘name’) // true has(target, ‘colors’) // false get(target, ‘name’) // undefined get(target, ‘colors’) // undefined get(target, ‘name’, { entries: true, missing: true }) // { value: undefined, path: [‘name’], missing: false } get(target, ‘colors’, { entries: true, missing: true }) // { value: undefined, path: [‘colors’], missing: true } list(target, ‘_') // [undefined] list(target, '_’, { entries: true }) // [{ value: undefined, path: [‘name’], missing: false }] ## Options Options are optional plain objects. ### mutate _Methods_: [`set()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#settarget-query-value-options), [`remove()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#removetarget-query-options) _Type_: `boolean` _Default_: `false` By default, the [target](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#target) is deeply cloned. When `true`, it is directly mutated instead, which is faster but has side effects. const target = {} console.log(set(target, ‘name’, ‘Alice’)) // { name: ‘Alice’ } console.log(target) // {} console.log(set(target, ‘name’, ‘Alice’, { mutate: true })) // { name: ‘Alice’ } console.log(target) // { name: ‘Alice’ } ### entries _Methods_: [`get()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#gettarget-query-options), [`list()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#listtarget-query-options), [`iterate()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#iteratetarget-query-options) _Type_: `boolean` _Default_: `false` By default, properties’ values are returned. When `true`, objects with the following shape are returned instead: - `value` `any`: property’s value - `path` [`Path`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#paths): property’s full path - `missing` `boolean`: whether the property is [missing](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#missing) from the [target](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#target) const target = { firstName: ‘Alice’, lastName: ‘Smith’ } list(target, ‘_') // [‘Alice’, ‘Smith’] list(target, '_’, { entries: true }) // [// { value: ‘Alice’, path: [‘firstName’], missing: false }, // { value: ‘Smith’, path: [‘lastName’], missing: false }, // ] ### missing _Methods_: all except [`has()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#hastarget-query-options) and [`remove()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#removetarget-query-options) _Type_: `boolean` _Default_: `false` with `list|iterate()`, `true` with `set()` When `false`, properties [not defined in the target](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#undefined-values) are ignored. const target = {} set(target, ‘name’, ‘Alice’) // { name: ‘Alice’ } set(target, ‘name’, ‘Alice’, { missing: false }) // {} list(target, ‘name’) // list(target, ‘name’, { missing: true, entries: true }) // [{ value: undefined, path: [‘name’], missing: true }] ### sort _Methods_: [`get()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#gettarget-query-options), [`list()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#listtarget-query-options), [`iterate()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#iteratetarget-query-options) _Type_: `boolean` _Default_: `false` When returning sibling object properties, sort them by the lexigographic order of their names (not values). const target = { lastName: ‘Doe’, firstName: ‘John’ } list(target, ‘_') // [‘Doe’, ‘John’] list(target, '_’, { sort: true }) // [‘John’, ‘Doe’] ### childFirst _Methods_: [`get()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#gettarget-query-options), [`list()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#listtarget-query-options), [`iterate()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#iteratetarget-query-options) _Type_: `boolean` _Default_: `false` When using [unions](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-unions) or [deep wildcards](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-wildcards), a query might match both a property and some of its children. This option decides whether the returned properties should be sorted from children to parents, or the reverse. const target = { user: { name: ‘Alice’ } } list(target, ‘user.**') // [{ name: ‘Alice’ }, ‘Alice’] list(target, 'user.**’, { childFirst: true }) // [‘Alice’, { name: ‘Alice’ }] ### leaves _Methods_: all except [`has()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#hastarget-query-options) _Type_: `boolean` _Default_: `false` When using [unions](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-unions) or [deep wildcards](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-wildcards), a query might match both a property and some of its children. When `true`, only leaves are matched. In other words, a matching property is ignored if one of its children also matches. const target = { user: { name: ‘Alice’ } } list(target, ‘user.**') // [{ name: ‘Alice’ }, ‘Alice’] list(target, 'user.**’, { leaves: true }) // [‘Alice’] ### roots _Methods_: [`get()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#gettarget-query-options), [`list()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#listtarget-query-options), [`iterate()`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#iteratetarget-query-options) _Type_: `boolean` _Default_: `false` When using [unions](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-unions) or [deep wildcards](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-wildcards), a query might match both a property and some of its children.

Array items can still be matched by using [indices](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-arrays-indices) or [slices](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#%EF%B8%8F-array-slices). const target = [{ name: ‘Alice’ }, { name: ‘Bob’ }] list(target, ‘**') // [// [{ name: ‘Alice’ }, { name: ‘Bob’ }], // { name: ‘Alice’ }, // ‘Alice’, // { name: ‘Bob’ }, // ‘Bob’, // ] list(target, '**’, { shallowArrays: true }) // [// [{ name: ‘Alice’ }, { name: ‘Bob’ }], // ] ### classes _Methods_: all _Type_: `boolean` _Default_: `false` Unless `true`, [wildcards](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-wildcards) and [regexps](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#%EF%B8%8F-regexps) ignore properties of objects that are not plain objects (like class instances, errors or functions). Those can still be matched by using their [property name](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#%EF%B8%8F-deep-properties). const target = { user: new User({ name: ‘Alice’ }) } list(target, ‘user._') // [] list(target, 'user._’, { classes: true }) // [‘Alice’] ### inherited _Methods_: all _Type_: `boolean` _Default_: `false` By default, [wildcards](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#-wildcards) and [regexps](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#%EF%B8%8F-regexps) ignore properties that are either [inherited](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Inheritance_and_the_prototype_chain) or [not enumerable](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Enumerability_and_ownership_of_properties). Those can still be matched by using their [property name](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path#%EF%B8%8F-deep-properties). When `true`, inherited properties are not ignored, but not enumerable ones still are. # Related projects - [`wild-wild-utils`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-utils): functional utilities using `wild-wild-path`’s object property paths - [`wild-wild-parser`](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-parser): parser for `wild-wild-path`’s object property paths ## GitHub: [https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path](https://github.com/ehmicky/wild-wild-path)
