mongo-object-escape

Mongo cannot store documents that have '$' or '.' in keys.

The docs encourage replacing with the Unicode full-width equivalents U+FF04 (i.e. “＄”) and U+FF0E (i.e. “．”).

This library escapes and unescapes the keys of an object according to that convention, returning a new object from each.

See the tests for examples.
