Install

npm install --save expand-top-level-dot-paths

var expand = require('expand-top-level-dot-paths')

Usage

expand(obj[, initialValue]) : Object

Expand top-level object properties that are dot-paths. If no initialValue given the initial value is a clone of the object. In this case all original dot-path properties are removed from the clone.

• obj {Object} (required) The object to expand
• initialValue {Object} (optional) Value to place expanded properties on (default: clone of obj)

Returns initialValue with all top-level dot-path properties from obj expanded on it.

Example

const obj = {
  'expand.me': 'please'
}
 
const expanded = expand(obj)
//=> {
//     expand: {
//       me: 'please'
//     }
//   }
 
obj === expanded //=> false
