# deepHasProp > Test whether an object contains a nested key path, either own or inherited.
## Usage ```javascript var deepHasProp = require( '@stdlib/assert/deep-has-property' ); ``` #### deepHasProp( value, path\[, options] ) Returns a `boolean` indicating if a `value` has a specified `path`, either own or inherited. ```javascript function Foo() { return this; } Foo.prototype.b = { 'c': 'd' }; var obj = { 'a': new Foo() }; var bool = deepHasProp( obj, 'a.b.c' ); // returns true bool = deepHasProp( obj, 'a.b.c.d.e' ); // returns false ``` If a key path includes an `array`, specify the numeric index. ```javascript var arr = [ { 'a': [ { 'b': [ { 'c': 'd' }, { 'e': 'f' } ] } ] } ]; var bool = deepHasProp( arr, '0.a.0.b.0.c' ); // returns true bool = deepHasProp( arr, '0.a.1.b.0.c' ); // returns false bool = deepHasProp( arr, '0.a.0.b.1.c' ); // returns false ``` The key path may be specified as either a delimited `string` or a key `array`. ```javascript var obj = { 'a': { 'b': { 'c': 'd' } } }; var bool = deepHasProp( obj, [ 'a', 'b', 'c' ] ); // returns true ``` The function accepts the following `options`: - **sep**: key path separator. Default: `'.'`. By default, the function assumes `.` separated key values. To specify an alternative separator, set the `sep` option. ```javascript var obj = { 'a': { 'b': { 'c': 'd' } } }; var bool = deepHasProp( obj, 'a/b/c', { 'sep': '/' }); // returns true ``` #### deepHasProp.factory( path\[, options] ) Returns a `function` which tests whether a `value` contains a nested key `path`, either own or inherited. ```javascript var has = deepHasProp.factory( 'a/b/c', { 'sep': '/' }); ``` #### has( value ) Returns a `boolean` indicating whether a `value` contains a nested key `path`, either own or inherited. ```javascript var has = deepHasProp.factory( 'a.b.c' ); function Foo() { return this; } Foo.prototype.b = { 'c': 'd' }; var obj = { 'a': new Foo() }; var bool = has( obj ); // returns true ```
## Notes - When provided `null` or `undefined`, the function result is always `false`. ```javascript var bool = deepHasProp( null, 'a.b.c' ); // returns false bool = deepHasProp( void 0, 'a.b.c' ); // returns false ``` - Property values other than `null` or `undefined` are coerced to `objects`. ```javascript var obj = { 'a': 'b' }; var bool = deepHasProp( obj, 'a.length' ); // returns true ``` - Key path `array` elements are coerced to `strings`. ```javascript var obj = { 'null': false }; var bool = deepHasProp( obj, [ null ] ); // returns true obj = { '[object Object]': false }; bool = deepHasProp( obj, [ {} ] ); // returns true ```
## Examples ```javascript var deepHasProp = require( '@stdlib/assert/deep-has-property' ); var bool; var has; bool = deepHasProp( { 'a': { 'b': { 'c': 'd' } } }, 'a.b.c' ); // returns true bool = deepHasProp( { 'a': { 'b': { 'c': 'd' } } }, [ 'a', 'b', 'hasOwnProperty' ] ); // returns true bool = deepHasProp( { 'a': { 'b': { 'c': 'd' } } }, 'a/b/c', { 'sep': '/' }); // returns true bool = deepHasProp( { 'a': { 'b': { 'c': 'd' } } }, 'a.b.c.d' ); // returns false bool = deepHasProp( { 'a': [ { 'b': { 'c': 'd' } } ] }, [ 'a', '0', 'b', 'c', 'd' ] ); // returns false bool = deepHasProp( { 'a': { 'b': { 'c': 'd' } } }, 'a/b/c/d/e', { 'sep': '/' }); // returns false // Create a customized function: has = deepHasProp.factory( 'a_b_c', { 'sep': '_' }); bool = has( { 'a': { 'b': { 'c': 'd' } } } ); // returns true bool = has( { 'a': [ { 'b': { 'c': 'd' } } ] } ); // returns false ```
