overwrite javascript ovject code example

Example: copy an object with object.assign

// We want to update status property value to 'online'
const data = {
  user: 'CamperBot',
  status: 'offline',
  friends: '732,982',
};

// Object.assign takes in a target object (1st parameter) and source objects 
// (rest of the parameter list). Source object properties are mapped to the 
// target object (which is usually empty). Any matching properties are 
// overwritten by the source objects
const newObject = Object.assign({}, data, {status: 'online'})

console.log(newObject)
/* 
  {
    user: 'CamperBot',
    status: 'online',
    friends: '732,982',
  }
*/
