Variable name as a string in Javascript

Question

Is there a way to get a variable name as a string in Javascript? (like NSStringFromSelector in Cocoa)

I would like to do like this:

var myFirstName =         


        

Answer 1

best way using Object.keys();

example for getting multi variables names in global scope

// multi varibles for testing
var x = 5 , b = true , m = 6 , v = "str";

// pass all varibles you want in object
function getVarsNames(v = {}){
    // getting keys or names !
    let names = Object.keys(v);
    // return array has real names of varibles 
    return names;
}

//testing if that work or not 
let VarsNames = getVarsNames({x , b , m , v});

console.log(VarsNames); // output is array [x , b , m , v]
