    caramel: {
      tastes: {
        chocolate: 1.234
      }
    }

var actual = ot.lookup('food.caramel.tastes.chocolate', data)
console.log(actual) // 1.234

string with custom separator

var data = {
  food: {
    caramel: {
      tastes: {
        chocolate: 1.234
      }
    }
  }
}

var ot = new ObjectTree({seperator: '::'})

var actual = ot.lookup('food::caramel::tastes::chocolate', data)
console.log(actual) // 1.234

array

var data = {
  food: {
    caramel: {
      tastes: {
        chocolate: 1.234
      }
    }
  }
}

var ot = new ObjectTree()

var actual = ot.lookup(['food','caramel','tastes','chocolate','smells','code'], data)
console.log(actual) // 1.234

filter

var data = {
  food: {
    caramel: {
      tastes: {
        chocolate: 1.234
      }
    }
  }
}

var ot = new ObjectTree()

var actual = ot.lookup({'food':'caramel','tastes':'chocolate'}, data)
console.log(actual) // 1.234

filter with wildcard

var data = {
  food: {
    caramel: {
      tastes: {
        '*': 444,
        chocolate: 1.234
      }
    }
  }
}

var ot = new ObjectTree({
  wildcard: '*'
})

var actual = ot.lookup({'food':'caramel','tastes':'flower'}, data)
console.log(actual) // 444

template only

var ot = new ObjectTree()

var actual = ot.lookupTemplate('{food.caramel.tastes.chocolate}', {
    food: {
      'caramel': {
        tastes: {
          'chocolate': 1.234
        }
      }
    }
  }
)

assert.equal(actual, 1.234)

template with custom delimiter

var ot = new ObjectTree({
  template: {
    left: '<',
    right: '>'
  }
})

var actual = ot.lookupTemplate('<food.caramel.tastes.chocolate>', {
    food: {
      'caramel': {
        tastes: {
          'chocolate': 1.234
        }
      }
    }
  }
)

assert.equal(actual, 1.234)

reverse lookup (generate a tree)

generate filters from the tree

var tree = {
  the: {
    barn: {
      '*': 0,
      is: {
        free: 1
      }
    },
    food: {
      is: {
        tasty: 2
      }
    }
  }
}

var ot = new ObjectTree({wildcard: '*'})

var eventBus = ot.generateFilters(tree)

eventBus.on('filter', function(value, filter, attrList) {
  will be called 3 times:
  // value=0, filter={the: 'barn'}, attrList=['the', 'barn']
  // value=1, filter={the: 'barn', is: 'free'}, attrList=['the', 'barn', 'is', 'free']
  // value=2, filter={the: 'food', is: 'tasty'}, attrList=['the', 'food', 'is', 'tasty']
})
eventBus.on('end', function() {
  // no more 'filter' events
})

set value

var obj = {attr1: false, attr2: true}

ot.set('attr2.nested1.nested2', Date.now(), obj)) // true

set returns true if the object was modified
