Get all Attributes from a HTML element with Javascript/jQuery

Question

I want to put all attributes in a Html element into an array: like i have a jQuery Object, whichs html looks like this:

Answer 1

Attributes to Object conversion

*Requires: lodash

function getAttributes(element, parseJson=false){
    let results = {}
    for (let i = 0, n = element.attributes.length; i < n; i++){
        let key = element.attributes[i].nodeName.replace('-', '.')
        let value = element.attributes[i].nodeValue
        if(parseJson){
            try{
                if(_.isString(value))
                value = JSON.parse(value)
            } catch(e) {}
        }
        _.set(results, key, value)
    }
    return results
}

This will convert all html attributes to a nested object

Example HTML:

Result: {custom:{nested:{path1:"value1",path2:"value2"}}}

If parseJson is set to true json values will be converted to objects
