The isObject function is a utility that checks whether a provided parameter is a plain object. It returns true if the parameter is a non-null object with the Object constructor, indicating a plain object, and false otherwise.
Usage
Import the isObject function in your project and use it to check if a given parameter is a plain object:
import { isObject } from "pol-ui";
// Your code goes here
const exampleObject = { key: "value" };
if (isObject(exampleObject)) {
// Code to handle the case when exampleObject is a plain object
console.log("Provided parameter is a plain object");
} else {
// Code to handle the case when exampleObject is not a plain object
console.log("Provided parameter is not a plain object");
}
Parameters
- item (unknown): The parameter to be checked for being a plain object.
Return Value
The function returns a boolean value (true or false), indicating whether the provided parameter is a plain object.
Example
import { isObject } from "pol-ui";
const exampleObject = { key: "value" };
if (isObject(exampleObject)) {
console.log("Provided parameter is a plain object");
} else {
console.log("Provided parameter is not a plain object");
}
// Output:
// Provided parameter is a plain object
In this example, the isObject function is used to check if a given parameter (exampleObject
) is a plain object.
Use Cases
- Type Checking: Use isObject to perform type checking and ensure that a variable is a plain object before performing operations specific to objects.
- Object Validation: When building functions that expect plain objects as parameters, use isObject to validate the input and provide appropriate handling for non-object cases.
Integrate the isObject function into your project for robust type checking of plain objects.
