Install

The latest version is ESM only: Node 12+ is needed to use it and it must be imported instead of required. If your project is not on ESM yet and you want to use require, use an older version of this program, 2.1.0.

npm i object-delete-key

Quick Take

import { strict as assert } from "assert";

import { deleteKey } from "object-delete-key";

// deleting key 'c', with value 'd'
assert.deepEqual(
  deleteKey(
    {
      a: "b",
      c: "d",
    },
    {
      key: "c",
      val: "d",
    }
  ),
  { a: "b" }
);

// deleting key 'b' with value - array ['c', 'd']
assert.deepEqual(
  deleteKey(
    {
      a: { e: [{ b: ["c", "d"] }] },
      b: ["c", "d"],
    },
    {
      key: "b",
      val: ["c", "d"],
    }
  ),
  {}
);
// notice program cleaned after itself, it didn't leave empty "a" key
