Convert returned JSON Object Properties to (lower first) camelCase

Question

I have JSON returned from an API like so:

Contacts: [{ GivenName: "Matt", FamilyName: "Berry" }]

To keep this consistent

This is a great use case for axios interceptors

Basically, define a client class and attach a before/after interceptor that converts the request/response data.

export default class Client {
    get(url, data, successCB, catchCB) {
        return this._perform('get', url, data, successCB, catchCB);
    }

    post(url, data, successCB, catchCB) {
        return this._perform('post', url, data, successCB, catchCB);
    }

    _perform(method, url, data, successCB, catchCB) {
        // https://github.com/axios/axios#interceptors
        // Add a response interceptor
        axios.interceptors.response.use((response) => {
            response.data = toCamelCase(response.data);
            return response;
        }, (error) => {
            error.data = toCamelCase(error.data);
            return Promise.reject(error);
        });

        // Add a request interceptor
        axios.interceptors.request.use((config) => {
            config.data = toSnakeCase(config.data);
            return config;
        }, (error) => {
            return Promise.reject(error);
        });

        return axios({
            method: method,
            url: API_URL + url,
            data: data,
            headers: {
                'Content-Type': 'application/json',
            },
        }).then(successCB).catch(catchCB)
    }
}

Here's a gist with a longer example using React/axios.
