@stdlib/utils-for-own

About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

forOwn

Invoke a function for each own enumerable property of an object.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/utils-for-own

Usage

var forOwn = require( '@stdlib/utils-for-own' );

forOwn( obj, fcn[, thisArg ] )

Invokes a function for each own enumerable property of an object.

function log( value, key ) {
    console.log( '%s: %d', key, value );
}

var obj = {
    'a': 1,
    'b': 2,
    'c': 3,
    'd': 4
};

forOwn( obj, log );
/* e.g., =>
    a: 1
    b: 2
    c: 3
    d: 4
*/

The invoked function is provided three arguments:

• value: object property value
• key: object property
• obj: the input object

To terminate iteration before visiting all properties, the provided function must explicitly return false.

function log( value, key ) {
    console.log( '%s: %d', key, value );
    return false;
}

var obj = {
    'a': 1,
    'b': 2,
    'c': 3,
    'd': 4
};

forOwn( obj, log );
// e.g., => a: 1

To set the function execution context, provide a thisArg.

function sum( value ) {
    this.sum += value;
    this.count += 1;
}

var obj = {
    'a': 1,
    'b': 2,
    'c': 3,
    'd': 4
};

var context = {
    'sum': 0,
    'count': 0
};

forOwn( obj, sum, context );

var mean = context.sum / context.count;
// returns 2.5

Notes

• The function returns the input object.
• The function determines the list of own enumerable properties before invoking the provided function. Hence, any modifications made to the input object after calling this function (such as adding and removing properties) will not affect the list of visited properties.
• Property iteration order is not guaranteed.

Examples

var fromCodePoint = require( '@stdlib/string-from-code-point' );
var forOwn = require( '@stdlib/utils-for-own' );

function update( value, key, obj ) {
    console.log( '%s: %d', key, value );
    obj[ key ] *= value;
}

var obj;
var key;
var i;

obj = {};
for ( i = 0; i < 26; i++ ) {
    key = fromCodePoint( 97 + i );
    obj[ key ] = i;
}

forOwn( obj, update );
console.log( obj );
