Is there any way to rename js object keys using underscore.js

Question

I need to convert a js object to another object for passing onto a server post where the names of the keys differ for example

var a = {
    name : \"Foo\",
          


        

Answer 1

// key_map: {old_name1: new_name1, ... }
function rename_keys(object, key_map, is_picked=false){
  keys = _.keys(key_map);
  new_keys = _.values(key_map);
  picked = _.pick(object, keys);
  renamed = _.object(new_keys, _.values(picked));
  if(is_picked) return renamed;

  return _.chain(object).omit(keys).extend(renamed).value();
}

This may be slower than above answers.
