Avoid an error when destructuring from undefined

Question

Lets say I have this code:

const {x, y} = point;

Babel will turn this into:

var _point = point,
    x = _point.x,
    y = _poin         


        

Answer 1

To handle undefined error in ES6 object destructuring, you can do something like following

const {x, y} = {...point};
console.log(x)      // undefined                  
console.log(y)      // undefined
