Passing an Object to Switch Case Javascript

Question

I wanted to have a switch/case statement that accepts an object in Javascript.

The function looks like this.

const validate = (values) => { valu         


        

Answer 1

const switchCase=(obj={},str='')=>obj[Object.keys(obj).find(ele=>ele.toString().split('|').includes(str.toString())) || 'default']


console.log(switchCase({
   default:'o',
  40:'ko',
  xyz:'hi',
  'yi|th' :'ho'
},'yi'))

Answer 2

You are using it like a function parameter which is unnecessary (and wrong). Since switch statements check that the value equals the case, you'll want to use:

switch(true) 

Answer 3

Change

switch(values) {

To

switch(true) {

switch checks with strict equality.

And use, if necessary some break if you do not want to fall through the switch cases (kudos to blex).
