dot notation js code example

Example 1: Accessing Object Properties with Bracket Notation

var myObj = {
  "Space Name": "Kirk",
  "More Space": "Spock",
  "NoSpace": "USS Enterprise"
};
myObj["Space Name"]; // Kirk
myObj['More Space']; // Spock
myObj["NoSpace"];    // USS Enterprise

Example 2: javascript dotify object

function dotify(obj) {
    const res = {};
    function recurse(obj, current) {
        for (const key in obj) {
            const value = obj[key];
            if(value != undefined) {
                const newKey = (current ? current + '.' + key : key);
                if (value && typeof value === 'object') {
                    recurse(value, newKey);
                } else {
                    res[newKey] = value;
                }
            }
        }
    }
    recurse(obj);
    return res;
}
dotify({'a':{'b1':{'c':1},'b2':{'c':1}}}) //{'a.b1.c':1,'a.b2.c':1}
