js destructuring name code example

Example 1: javascript object destructuring

//simple example with object------------------------------
let obj = {name: 'Max', age: 22, address: 'Delhi'};
const {name, age} = obj;

console.log(name);
//expected output: "Max"

console.log(age);
//expected output: 22

console.log(address);
//expected output: Uncaught ReferenceError: address is not defined

// simple example with array-------------------------------
let a, b, rest;
[a, b] = [10, 20];

console.log(a);
// expected output: 10

console.log(b);
// expected output: 20

[a, b, ...rest] = [10, 20, 30, 40, 50];

console.log(rest);
// expected output: Array [30,40,50]

Example 2: Destructuring Assignment

const HIGH_TEMPERATURES = {
  yesterday: 75,
  today: 77,
  tomorrow: 80
};

//ES6 assignment syntax
const {today, tomorrow} = HIGH_TEMPERATURES;

//ES5 assignment syntax
const today = HIGH_TEMPERATURES.today;
const tomorrow = HIGH_TEMPERATURES.tomorrow;

console.log(today); // 77
console.log(tomorrow); // 80
console.log(yesterday); // "ReferenceError: yesterday is not defined" as it should be.

Example 3: javascript function destructuring

function f() {
  return [1, 2];
}

let a, b; 
[a, b] = f(); 
console.log(a); // 1
console.log(b); // 2

Example 4: javascript destructing

/*
* On the left-hand side, you decide which values to unpack from the right-hand
* side source variable.
* 
* This was introduced in ES6
*/
const x = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
const [a, b] = x
console.log(a) // prints out: 1
console.log(b) // prints out: 2
