Usage

extend (destination, source, ...)

  • @param {Object} destination
  • @param {Object} sources ...
  • @return {Object} destination extended

For each source, shallow merge its key/values to the destinatino. Sources are read in order, meaning the same key in a later source will overwrite the key's value earlier set.

var extend = require('tea-extend');
 
// sample objects
var a = { hello: 'universe' }
  , b = { speak: 'loudly' };
 
// change a
extend(a, b);
a.should.deep.equal({ hello: 'universe', speak: 'loudly' });
 
// shallow clone to c
var c = extend({}, a);
a.language = 'en';
 
a.should.deep.equal({ hello: 'universe', speak: 'loudly', language: 'en' });
c.should.deep.equal({ hello: 'universe', speak: 'loudly' });

extend.include (props, ...)

  • @param {String} each property to include as an argument
  • @return {Function} reusable include function

Create a new object that only includes the properties specified. Unlike extend(), the original objects will not be modified.

This method will return a function that can be reused for the specified properties. Like extend(), this function accepts an unlimited number of objects as parameters to draw from. Also, the same key in later specified objects will overwrite earlier specified values.

var extend = require('tea-extend')
  , include = extend.include('one', 'two');
 
var a = { one: 1, three: 3 }
  , b = { zero: 0, two: 2 };
 
var c = include(a, b);
 
c.should.deep.equal({ one: 1, two: 2 });

extend.exclude (props, ...)

  • @param {String} each property to exclude as an argument
  • @return {Function} reusable exclude function

Create a new object that include all but the properties specified. Unlike extend(), the original objects will not be modified.

This method will return a function that can be reused for the specified properties. Like extend(), this function accepts an unlimited number of objects as parameters to draw from. Also, the same key in later specified objects will overwrite earlier specified values.

var extend = require('tea-extend')
  , exclude = extend.exclude('one', 'two');
 
var a = { one: 1, three: 3 }
  , b = { zero: 0, two: 2 };
 
var c = exclude(a, b);
 
c.should.deep.equal({ three: 3, zero: 0 });
