{{alias}}( obj, [options,] transform ) Inverts an object, such that keys become values and values become keys, according to a transform function. The transform function is provided three arguments: - `key`: object key - `value`: object value corresponding to `key` - `obj`: the input object The value returned by a transform function should be a value which can be serialized as an object key. Hence, beware when providing objects having values which are themselves objects. The function relies on native object serialization (`#toString`) when converting transform function return values to keys. Insertion order is not guaranteed, as object key enumeration is not specified according to the ECMAScript specification. In practice, however, most engines use insertion order to sort an object's keys, thus allowing for deterministic inversion. Parameters ---------- obj: ObjectLike Input object. options: Object (optional) Options. options.duplicates: boolean (optional) Boolean indicating whether to store keys mapped to duplicate values in arrays. Default: `true`. transform: Function Transform function. Returns ------- out: Object Inverted object. Examples -------- // Basic usage: > function transform( key, value ) { return key + value; }; > var obj = { 'a': 'beep', 'b': 'boop' }; > var out = {{alias}}( obj, transform ) { 'abeep': 'a', 'bboop': 'b' } // Duplicate values: > function transform( key, value ) { return value; }; > obj = { 'a': 'beep', 'b': 'beep' }; > out = {{alias}}( obj, transform ) { 'beep': [ 'a', 'b' ] } // Override duplicate values: > obj = {}; > obj.a = 'beep'; > obj.b = 'boop'; > obj.c = 'beep'; > out = {{alias}}( obj, { 'duplicates': false }, transform ) { 'beep': 'c', 'boop': 'b' } See Also --------
