[removed] Object Rename Key

Question

Is there a clever (i.e. optimized) way to rename a key in a javascript object?

A non-optimized way would be:

o[ new_key ] = o[ old_key ];
delete o[ o         


        

Answer 1

A variation using object destructuring and spread operator:

    const old_obj = {
        k1: `111`,
        k2: `222`,
        k3: `333`
    };


// destructuring, with renaming. The variable 'rest' will hold those values not assigned to kA, kB, or kC.
    const {
        k1: kA, 
        k2: kB, 
        k3: kC,
        ...rest
    } = old_obj;


// now create a new object, with the renamed properties kA, kB, kC; 
// spread the remaining original properties in the 'rest' variable
const newObj = {kA, kB, kC, ...rest};
