Convert returned JSON Object Properties to (lower first) camelCase
You can do this with this recursive function (with lodash and ES6):
import { camelCase } from 'lodash';
const camelizeKeys = (obj) => {
if (Array.isArray(obj)) {
return obj.map(v => camelizeKeys(v));
} else if (obj != null && obj.constructor === Object) {
return Object.keys(obj).reduce(
(result, key) => ({
...result,
[camelCase(key)]: camelizeKeys(obj[key]),
}),
{},
);
}
return obj;
};
Test:
const obj = {
'FirstName': 'John',
'LastName': 'Smith',
'BirthDate': new Date(),
'ArrayTest': ['one', 'TWO', 3],
'ThisKey': {
'This-Sub-Key': 42
}
}
console.log(JSON.stringify(camelizeKeys(obj)))
Output:
{
"firstName": "John",
"lastName": "Smith",
"birthDate": "2018-05-31T09:03:57.844Z",
"arrayTest":[
"one",
"TWO",
3
],
"thisKey":{
"thisSubKey": 42
}
}
If you would use lodash instead of underscore, this would do:
_.mapKeys(obj, (v, k) => _.camelCase(k))
This would convert both TitleCase
and snake_case
to camelCase
. Note that it is not recursive though.
Here's a reliable, recursive function that will properly camelCase all of a JavaScript object's properties:
function toCamel(o) {
var newO, origKey, newKey, value
if (o instanceof Array) {
return o.map(function(value) {
if (typeof value === "object") {
value = toCamel(value)
}
return value
})
} else {
newO = {}
for (origKey in o) {
if (o.hasOwnProperty(origKey)) {
newKey = (origKey.charAt(0).toLowerCase() + origKey.slice(1) || origKey).toString()
value = o[origKey]
if (value instanceof Array || (value !== null && value.constructor === Object)) {
value = toCamel(value)
}
newO[newKey] = value
}
}
}
return newO
}
Test:
var obj = {
'FirstName': 'John',
'LastName': 'Smith',
'BirthDate': new Date(),
'ArrayTest': ['one', 'TWO', 3],
'ThisKey': {
'This-Sub-Key': 42
}
}
console.log(JSON.stringify(toCamel(obj)))
Output:
{
"firstName":"John",
"lastName":"Smith",
"birthDate":"2017-02-13T19:02:09.708Z",
"arrayTest": [
"one",
"TWO",
3
],
"thisKey":{
"this-Sub-Key":42
}
}
