example

var x = {
    foo: { bar: 3 },
    array: [{
        does: 'work',
        too: [ 1, 2, 3 ]
    }]
}

var y = {
    foo: { baz: 4 },
    quux: 5,
    array: [{
        does: 'work',
        too: [ 4, 5, 6 ]
    }, {
        really: 'yes'
    }]
}

var expected = {
    foo: {
        bar: 3,
        baz: 4
    },
    array: [{
        does: 'work',

methods

var merge = require('deepmerge')

merge(x, y, [options])

Merge two objects x and y deeply, returning a new merged object with the elements from both x and y.

If an element at the same key is present for both x and y, the value from y will appear in the result.

Merging creates a new object, so that neither x or y are be modified. However, child objects on x or y are copied over - if you want to copy all values, you must pass true to the clone option.

merge.all(arrayOfObjects, [options])

Merges two or more objects into a single result object.

var x = { foo: { bar: 3 } }
var y = { foo: { baz: 4 } }
var z = { bar: 'yay!' }

var expected = { foo: { bar: 3, baz: 4 }, bar: 'yay!' }

merge.all([x, y, z]) // => expected

options

arrayMerge

The merge will also merge arrays and array values by default. However, there are nigh-infinite valid ways to merge arrays, and you may want to supply your own. You can do this by passing an arrayMerge function as an option.

function concatMerge(destinationArray, sourceArray, options) {
	destinationArray // => [1, 2, 3]
	sourceArray // => [3, 2, 1]
	options // => { arrayMerge: concatMerge }
	return destinationArray.concat(sourceArray)
}
merge([1, 2, 3], [3, 2, 1], { arrayMerge: concatMerge }) // => [1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 1]

To prevent arrays from being merged:

const dontMerge = (destination, source) => source
const output = merge({ coolThing: [1,2,3] }, { coolThing: ['a', 'b', 'c'] }, { arrayMerge: dontMerge })
output // => { coolThing: ['a', 'b', 'c'] }

clone

Defaults to false. If clone is true then both x and y are recursively cloned as part of the merge.
