Access a nested property with a string [duplicate]

by

You’ll have to split the string by the period, and then access each node iteratively. This could be done in a simple reduce:

var value = str.split('.').reduce(function(p,prop) { return p[prop] }, person);

The above would work regardless if str contains a period or not, i.e. for name as well as contact.phone.
