@stdlib/utils-omit

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!

omit

Return a partial object copy excluding specified keys.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/utils-omit

Usage

var omit = require( '@stdlib/utils-omit' );

omit( obj, keys )

Returns a partial copy of an object, which excludes specified keys.

var obj1 = {
    'a': 1,
    'b': 2,
    'c': 3
};

var obj2 = omit( obj1, 'b' );
// returns { 'a': 1, 'c': 3 }

var obj3 = omit( obj1, [ 'b', 'c' ] );
// returns { 'a': 1 }

The function ignores non-existent and inherited keys.

var obj1 = {
    'a': 1,
    'b': 2,
    'c': 3
};

var obj2 = omit( obj1, 'd' );
// returns { 'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 3 }

Notes

• The function returns a shallow copy.
• The function only copies own properties. Hence, the function never copies inherited properties.

Examples

var omit = require( '@stdlib/utils-omit' );

var obj1 = {
    'a': 1,
    'b': 2,
    'c': 3,
    'd': 4,
    'e': 5
};

var obj2 = omit( obj1, [ 'b', 'c', 'e' ] );
// returns { 'a': 1, 'd': 4 }
