Adds utilities to the YUI instance for working with objects.
()
obj
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:20
Returns a new object that uses obj as its prototype. This method wraps the
native ES5 Object.create()
method if available, but doesn't currently
pass through Object.create()
's second argument (properties) in order to
ensure compatibility with older browsers.
obj
Object
Prototype object.
New object using obj as its prototype.
each
obj
fn
[thisObj]
[proto=false]
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:239
Executes a function on each enumerable property in obj. The function receives the value, the key, and the object itself as parameters (in that order).
By default, only properties owned by obj are enumerated. To include
prototype properties, set the proto parameter to true
.
the YUI instance.
getValue
o
path
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:305
Retrieves the sub value at the provided path, from the value object provided.
The value stored in the path, undefined if not found, undefined if the source is not an object. Returns the source object if an empty path is provided.
hasKey
obj
key
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:110
Alias for owns()
.
true
if key exists on obj, false
otherwise.
hasValue
obj
value
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:225
Returns true
if the object owns an enumerable property with the specified
value.
obj
Object
An object.
value
Any
The value to search for.
true
if obj contains value, false
otherwise.
isEmpty
obj
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:369
Available since 3.2.0
Returns true
if the object has no enumerable properties of its own.
obj
Object
An object.
true
if the object is empty.
keys
obj
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:121
Returns an array containing the object's enumerable keys. Does not include prototype keys or non-enumerable keys.
Note that keys are returned in enumeration order (that is, in the same order
that they would be enumerated by a for-in
loop), which may not be the same
as the order in which they were defined.
This method is an alias for the native ES5 Object.keys()
method if
available and non-buggy. The Opera 11.50 and Android 2.3.x versions of
Object.keys()
have an inconsistency as they consider prototype
to be
enumerable, so a non-native shim is used to rectify the difference.
obj
Object
An object.
Array of keys.
Y.Object.keys({a: 'foo', b: 'bar', c: 'baz'});
// => ['a', 'b', 'c']
owns
obj
key
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:95
Returns true
if key exists on obj, false
if key doesn't exist or
exists only on obj's prototype. This is essentially a safer version of
obj.hasOwnProperty()
.
true
if key exists on obj, false
otherwise.
setValue
o
path
val
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:334
Sets the sub-attribute value at the provided path on the value object. Returns the modified value object, or undefined if the path is invalid.
The modified object, with the new sub value set, or undefined, if the path was invalid.
size
obj
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:209
Returns the number of enumerable keys owned by an object.
obj
Object
An object.
The object's size.
some
obj
fn
[thisObj]
[proto=false]
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:271
Executes a function on each enumerable property in obj, but halts if the function returns a truthy value. The function receives the value, the key, and the object itself as paramters (in that order).
By default, only properties owned by obj are enumerated. To include
prototype properties, set the proto parameter to true
.
true
if any execution of fn returns a truthy value,
false
otherwise.
values
obj
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:179
Returns an array containing the values of the object's enumerable keys.
Note that values are returned in enumeration order (that is, in the same
order that they would be enumerated by a for-in
loop), which may not be the
same as the order in which they were defined.
obj
Object
An object.
Array of values.
Y.Object.values({a: 'foo', b: 'bar', c: 'baz'});
// => ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']
_forceEnum
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:49
Property names that IE doesn't enumerate in for..in loops, even when they
should be enumerable. When _hasEnumBug
is true
, it's necessary to
manually enumerate these properties.
_hasEnumBug
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:68
true
if this browser has the JScript enumeration bug that prevents
enumeration of the properties named in the _forceEnum
array, false
otherwise.
See:
_hasProtoEnumBug
Defined in
yui/js/yui-object.js:84
true
if this browser incorrectly considers the prototype
property of
functions to be enumerable. Currently known to affect Opera 11.50 and Android 2.3.x.
