Javascript - object key->value

Question

var obj = {
   a: \"A\",
   b: \"B\",
   c: \"C\"
}

console.log(obj.a); // return string : A

but i want to get by through a variable like this

Answer 1

Use [] notation for string representations of properties:

console.log(obj[name]);

Otherwise it's looking for the "name" property, rather than the "a" property.

Answer 2

var o = { cat : "meow", dog : "woof"};
var x = Object.keys(o);

for (i=0; i<x.length; i++) {
  console.log(o[x[i]]);
}

 var days = {};
days["monday"] = true;
days["tuesday"] = true;
days["wednesday"] = false;
days["thursday"] = true;
days["friday"] = false;
days["saturday"] = true;
days["sunday"] = false;
var userfalse=0,usertrue=0;
for(value in days)
{
   if(days[value]){
   usertrue++;
   }else{
   userfalse++;
   }
    console.log(days[value]);
}
alert("false",userfalse);
alert("true",usertrue);

Answer 4

obj["a"] is equivalent to obj.a so use obj[name] you get "A"

Answer 5

I use the following syntax:

objTest = {"error": true, "message": "test message"};

get error:

 var name = "error"
 console.log(objTest[name]);

get message:

 name = "message"
 console.log(objTest[name]);

Answer 6

Use this syntax:

obj[name]

Note that obj.x is the same as obj["x"] for all valid JS identifiers, but the latter form accepts all string as keys (not just valid identifiers).

obj["Hey, this is ... neat?"] = 42
