How can I convert an object to a map in JavaScript?

How can I convert an object to a map in JavaScript?

You can use the Map constructor along with Object.entries(). Here's an example:

const obj = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 }; 
const map = new Map(Object.entries(obj));

What if my object has nested objects?

If your object has nested objects, you might need to flatten it first or handle the nested structure separately. Would you like an example?

Yes, please provide an example for nested objects.

Sure! Here's how you can convert a nested object to a map:

const nestedObj = { a: 1, b: { c: 2, d: 3 } };
const map = new Map();

function convertToMap(obj) {
    for (const [key, value] of Object.entries(obj)) {
        if (typeof value === 'object' && value !== null) {
            map.set(key, convertToMap(value));
        } else {
            map.set(key, value);
        }
    }
    return map;
}

convertToMap(nestedObj);
