# nonEnumerableProperties
> Return an array of an object's own non-enumerable property names and symbols.
## Usage
```javascript
var nonEnumerableProperties = require( '@stdlib/utils/nonenumerable-properties' );
```
#### nonEnumerableProperties( obj )
Returns an `array` of an object's own non-enumerable property names and symbols.
```javascript
var defineProperty = require( '@stdlib/utils/define-property' );
var obj = {};
obj.a = 'a';
defineProperty( obj, 'b', {
'configurable': false,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': false,
'value': 'b'
});
var props = nonEnumerableProperties( obj );
// returns [ 'b' ]
```
## Notes
- Property order is not guaranteed, as `object` property enumeration is not specified according to the [ECMAScript specification][ecma-262-for-in]. In practice, however, most engines use insertion order to sort an `object`'s properties, thus allowing for deterministic extraction.
## Examples
```javascript
var defineProperty = require( '@stdlib/utils/define-property' );
var hasSymbolSupport = require( '@stdlib/assert/has-symbol-support' );
var Symbol = require( '@stdlib/symbol/ctor' );
var nonEnumerableProperties = require( '@stdlib/utils/nonenumerable-properties' );
var hasSymbols = hasSymbolSupport();
var props;
var obj;
function Foo() {
this.a = 'a';
defineProperty( this, 'b', {
'configurable': true,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': true,
'value': 'b'
});
if ( hasSymbols ) {
this[ Symbol( 'a' ) ] = 'a';
defineProperty( this, Symbol( 'b' ), {
'configurable': true,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': true,
'value': 'b'
});
}
return this;
}
Foo.prototype.c = 'c';
defineProperty( Foo.prototype, 'd', {
'configurable': false,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': false,
'value': 'd'
});
if ( hasSymbols ) {
Foo.prototype[ Symbol( 'c' ) ] = 'c';
defineProperty( Foo.prototype, Symbol( 'd' ), {
'configurable': false,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': false,
'value': 'd'
});
}
obj = new Foo();
props = nonEnumerableProperties( obj );
console.log( props );
// => [ 'b', ... ]
```
