angular2: how to copy object into another object

Question

Please help me in order to copy the object into another object using angular 2?

In angular, I used angular.copy() to copy objects to the loose reference of the old object

Answer 1

As suggested before, the clean way of deep copying objects having nested objects inside is by using lodash's cloneDeep method.

For Angular, you can do it like this:

Install lodash with yarn add lodash or npm install lodash.

In your component, import cloneDeep and use it:

import * as cloneDeep from 'lodash/cloneDeep';
...
clonedObject = cloneDeep(originalObject);

It's only 18kb added to your build, well worth for the benefits.

I've also written an article here, if you need more insight on why using lodash's cloneDeep.
