Because simple things are beautiful

Have you ever wanted to pick properties within an object in javascript and output it straightly as a new object? Sure you probably used lodash before but now you’ll be able to do it simply with a one-line killer solution.

One line solution

It uses an arrow function, a self invoked function and the joy of desctructuring assignment.

Solution without arrow function

Solution without destructuring

Liked it ? share the magic :
Build an object from another one in one line : let john = (({age, job}) => ({age, job}))(person) #ES6 #magic #javascript

That’s it.
Have fun!
