How can I add a key/value pair to a JavaScript object?

Question

Here is my object literal:

var obj = {key1: value1, key2: value2};

How can I add field key3 with value3 to the ob

Answer 1

supported by most of browsers, and it checks if object key available or not you want to add, if available it overides existing key value and it not available it add key with value

example 1

let my_object = {};

// now i want to add something in it  

my_object.red = "this is red color";

// { red : "this is red color"}

example 2

let my_object = { inside_object : { car : "maruti" }}

// now i want to add something inside object of my object 

my_object.inside_object.plane = "JetKing";

// { inside_object : { car : "maruti" , plane : "JetKing"} }

example 3

let my_object = { inside_object : { name : "abhishek" }}

// now i want to add something inside object with new keys birth , gender 

my_object.inside_object.birth = "8 Aug";
my_object.inside_object.gender = "Male";


    // { inside_object : 
//             { name : "abhishek",
//               birth : "8 Aug",
//               gender : "Male" 
//            }   
//       }
