object-locator

This small lib helps a developer to go directly inside object properties for any given depth and to return the datat

The problem

   const obj = {a: {b: {c: 'd'}}};
   
   // get a.b.c - verbose way
   if(a && a.b && a.c)
     return a.b.c

object-locator solution

   const locator = require('object-locator');
   const obj = {a: {b: {c: 'd'}}};
   
   // elegant way
   locator(obj).a.b.c.getOrElse('bla') // === 'd'
   // or for non exist object
   locator(obj).a.b.not.exist.getOrElse('bla') // === 'bla'
