[ES6] 08. Destructuring Assignment -- 1

Here is the way you get value from an object:

var obj = {
    color: "blue"
}
console.log(obj.color);  //blue

Destructuring Assignment:

---

Object

Destructuring Assignment is somehow different:

var {color} = {
    color: "green"
}
console.log(color); //green

It tells to looking for color property, so I get "green".

If I have muli pros (color, name, position, state): And I want to get color, and position properties.

var {color, position} = {
    color: "green",
    name: "Great",
    position: "Finland",
    state: "Who knows"
}
console.log(color); //green
console.log(position); //Finland

Function

If I have a fn which return an object: And from the object, I just want name and state.

function getObj(){
    return{
        color: "green",
        name: "Great",
        position: "Finland",
        state: "Who knows"
    };
}

var {name, state} = getObj();
console.log(name); //Great
console.log(state); //Who knows

From the example, if you want to name something else:

{name: who, state: where} 

function getObj(){
    return{
        color: "green",
        name: "Great",
        position: "Finland",
        state: "Who knows"
    };
}

var {name: who, state: where} = getObj();
console.log(who); //Great
console.log(where); //Who knows

Array

If I have an array, from which I just want the first and the third element from the array:

var [first,,third] = ['first', 'second', 'third', 'forth'];
console.log(first);  //first
console.log(third);  //third

If I want to forEach of array: and get the firstName

var people = [
    {
        firstName: "Allen",
        secondName: "Hook",
        email: "allen@abc.com"
    },
    {
        firstName: "Anton",
        secondName: "Tee",
        email: "tee@abc.com"
    },
    {
        firstName: "Yui",
        secondName: "Gegg",
        email: "gegg@abc.com"
    }
];

people.forEach(({firstName}) => console.log(firstName));

/*
 Allen
 Anton
 Yui
 * */

To make it clear:

people.foreach(function(person){
    console.log(person.firstName);
});

//Destructuring
people.foreach(function( {firstName} ){
    console.log(firstName);
});

//Destructuring  + Allow
people.foreach( ( {firstName} ) => console.log(firstName); )

or:

var [, secondPerson] = people;
function logEmail({email}){
    console.log(email);
}
logEmail(secondPerson); //tee@abc.com
