javascript-lodashHow do I use Lodash to copy an object in JavaScript?


Lodash is a JavaScript library that provides utility functions for common programming tasks. It can be used to easily copy an object in JavaScript.

Example

const _ = require('lodash');

const obj1 = {
  name: 'John',
  age: 30
};

const obj2 = _.cloneDeep(obj1);

console.log(obj2);

Output example

{
  name: 'John',
  age: 30
}

The code above uses the Lodash cloneDeep method to copy an object. This method creates a deep clone of the object, meaning that any nested objects will also be cloned.

The code can be broken down as follows:

  1. const _ = require('lodash'); - imports the Lodash library.
  2. const obj1 = {name: 'John', age: 30}; - creates an object to be cloned.
  3. const obj2 = _.cloneDeep(obj1); - clones the object using the cloneDeep method.
  4. console.log(obj2); - prints out the cloned object.

For more information, see the Lodash documentation.
