Get array of object's keys

Question

I would like to get the keys of a JavaScript object as an array, either in jQuery or pure JavaScript.

Is there a less verbose way than this?

var foo

In case you're here looking for something to list the keys of an n-depth nested object as a flat array:

const getObjectKeys = (obj, prefix = '') => {
  return Object.entries(obj).reduce((collector, [key, val]) => {
    const newKeys = [ ...collector, prefix ? `${prefix}.${key}` : key ]
    if (Object.prototype.toString.call(val) === '[object Object]') {
      const newPrefix = prefix ? `${prefix}.${key}` : key
      const otherKeys = getObjectKeys(val, newPrefix)
      return [ ...newKeys, ...otherKeys ]
    }
    return newKeys
  }, [])
}

console.log(getObjectKeys({a: 1, b: 2, c: { d: 3, e: { f: 4 }}}))
