javascritp how to add to a object code example

Example 1: how to add field to object in js

// original object { key1: "a", key2: "b"}
var obj = {
    key1: "a",
    key2: "b"
};

// adding new filed - you can use 2 ways
obj.key3 = "c"; // static
// or
obj["key3"] = "c"; // dynamic - 'key3' can be a variable
console.log(obj) // {key1: "a", key2: "b", key3: "c" }

Example 2: js push in object

let obj = {};
let objToAdd1 = { prop1: "1", prop2: "2" };
let objToAdd2 = { prop3: "3", prop4: "4" };

// obj variabile could be empty or not, it's the same
obj = { ...obj, ...objToAdd1 };
obj = { ...obj, ...objToAdd2 };

// Note that i used the spread operator... This syntax is available
// only for the most recent js ES (from ES6 on, if i'm not wrong) :)

console.log(obj);
