Full path of a json object

Question

I\'m trying to flatten an object where the keys will be the full path to the leaf node. I can recursively identify which are the leaf nodes but stuck trying to construct the

Answer 1

A non fancy approach, internally uses recursion.

var x = { one:1,two:{three:3},four:{five: 5,six:{seven:7},eight:8},nine:9};
var res = {};
var constructResultCurry = function(src){ return constructResult(res,src); }
        
function constructResult(target, src) {
  if(!src) return;
  target[src.key] = src.val;
}
        
function buildPath(key, obj, overAllKey) {
  overAllKey += (overAllKey ? "." : "") + key;
  if(typeof obj[key] != "object") return { key : overAllKey, val : obj[key] };
  Object.keys(obj[key]).forEach(function(keyInner) {
     constructResultCurry(buildPath(keyInner, obj[key], overAllKey));  
  });
}
        
Object.keys(x).forEach(function(k){
  constructResultCurry(buildPath(k, x, ""));
});

console.log(res);
