mdn object destructuring code example

Example 1: 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 2: object destructuring

const book = {
    title: 'Ego is the Enemy',
    author: 'Ryan Holiday',
    publisher: {
        name: 'Penguin',
        type: 'private'
    }
};

const {title: bookName =  'Ego', author, name: {publisher: { name }} = book, type: {publisher: { type }} = book } = book;

Example 3: array destructuring

//Without destructuring

const myArray = ["a", "b", "c"];

const x = myArray[0];
const y = myArray[1];

console.log(x, y); // "a" "b"

//With destructuring

const myArray = ["a", "b", "c"];

const [x, y] = myArray; // That's it !

console.log(x, y); // "a" "b"

Example 4: destructure to object

({x: oof.x, y: oof.y} = foo);
