# Introduction
|
||
|
|
||
|
The *Hoek* general purpose node utilities library is used to aid in a variety of manners. It comes with useful methods for Arrays (clone, merge, applyToDefaults), Objects (removeKeys, copy), Asserting and more.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For example, to use Hoek to set configuration with default options:
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var Hoek = require('hoek');
|
||
|
|
||
|
var default = {url : "www.github.com", port : "8000", debug : true}
|
||
|
|
||
|
var config = Hoek.applyToDefaults(default, {port : "3000", admin : true});
|
||
|
|
||
|
// In this case, config would be { url: 'www.github.com', port: '3000', debug: true, admin: true }
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Under each of the sections (such as Array), there are subsections which correspond to Hoek methods. Each subsection will explain how to use the corresponding method. In each js excerpt below, the var Hoek = require('hoek') is omitted for brevity.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Object
|
||
|
|
||
|
Hoek provides several helpful methods for objects and arrays.
|
||
|
|
||
|
### clone(obj)
|
||
|
|
||
|
This method is used to clone an object or an array. A *deep copy* is made (duplicates everything, including values that are objects).
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
||
|
var nestedObj = {
|
||
|
w: /^something$/ig,
|
||
|
x: {
|
||
|
a: [1, 2, 3],
|
||
|
b: 123456,
|
||
|
c: new Date()
|
||
|
},
|
||
|
y: 'y',
|
||
|
z: new Date()
|
||
|
};
|
||
|
|
||
|
var copy = Hoek.clone(nestedObj);
|
||
|
|
||
|
copy.x.b = 100;
|
||
|
|
||
|
console.log(copy.y) // results in 'y'
|
||
|
console.log(nestedObj.x.b) // results in 123456
|
||
|
console.log(copy.x.b) // results in 100
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### merge(target, source, isNullOverride, isMergeArrays)
|
||
|
isNullOverride, isMergeArrays default to true
|
||
|
|
||
|
Merge all the properties of source into target, source wins in conflic, and by default null and undefined from source are applied
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
||
|
var target = {a: 1, b : 2}
|
||
|
var source = {a: 0, c: 5}
|
||
|
var source2 = {a: null, c: 5}
|
||
|
|
||
|
var targetArray = [1, 2, 3];
|
||
|
var sourceArray = [4, 5];
|
||
|
|
||
|
var newTarget = Hoek.merge(target, source); // results in {a: 0, b: 2, c: 5}
|
||
|
newTarget = Hoek.merge(target, source2); // results in {a: null, b: 2, c: 5}
|
||
|
newTarget = Hoek.merge(target, source2, false); // results in {a: 1, b: 2, c: 5}
|
||
|
|
||
|
newTarget = Hoek.merge(targetArray, sourceArray) // results in [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
|
||
|
newTarget = Hoek.merge(targetArray, sourceArray, true, false) // results in [4, 5]
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### applyToDefaults(defaults, options)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Apply options to a copy of the defaults
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
||
|
var defaults = {host: "localhost", port: 8000};
|
||
|
var options = {port: 8080};
|
||
|
|
||
|
var config = Hoek.applyToDefaults(defaults, options); // results in {host: "localhost", port: 8080};
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### unique(array, key)

||
|
|
||
|

|
var array = [1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6];
|
||
|
|
||
|
var newArray = Hoek.unique(array); // results in [1,2,3,4,5,6];
|
||
|
|
||
|
array = [{id: 1}, {id: 1}, {id: 2}];
|
||
|
|
||
|
newArray = Hoek.unique(array, "id") // results in [{id: 1}, {id: 2}]
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
### mapToObject(array, key)
|

```javascript
|
||

|
||
|
|
||
|
array = [{id: 1}, {id: 2}];
|
||
|
newObject = Hoek.mapToObject(array, "id") // results in [{"id": 1}, {"id": 2}]
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
### intersect(array1, array2)
|
||
|
|
