{{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' }
