Easily convert from one object class to the next
MIT License
A simple conversion tool from one object type to the next
$ npm i convertify --save
// ES2015
import to from "convertify";
// CommonJS
const to = require("convertify");
// script
const to = window.convertify;
Or you can bring in individual functions:
// in this case toString, which is the same as to.string
// ES2015
import { toString } from "convertify";
// CommonJS
const toString = require("convertify").toString;
// script
const toString = window.convertify.toString;
const someObject = {
foo: "bar"
};
// you can use the default method
const map = to("map", someObject); // Map {'foo' => 'bar'}
// or the convenience methods
const array = to.array(map); // ['bar']
Link here: API
to(convertTo: string, object: any)
The standard method accepts two parameters, the first being a string of the object class you wnat to convert the object to, and the second being the object itself. The valid object classes you can convert to:
array
boolean
date
error
function
generator
map
null
number
object
promise
regexp
set
string
symbol
undefined
These values are either the string value you pass in as the first parameter to to
, or the shorthand method name for that specific conversion:
const stringifiedObject = to("string", object);
// is the same as
const alsoStringifiedObject = to.string(object);
The conversions themselves try to be smarter than the standard implicit conversions, so check out the API to learn more details about specific conversion results.
