Array destructuring in JavaScript

by

Destucturing is using structure-like syntax on the left-hand-side of an assignment to assign elements of a structure on the right-hand-side to individual variables. For exampple,

let array = [1, 2, 3, 4];
let [first, _, third] = array;

destructures the array [1, 2, 3] and assigns individual elements to first and third (_ being a placeholder, making it skip the second element). Because LHS is shorter than RHS, 4 is also being ignored. It is equivalent to:

let first = array[0];
let third = array[2];

There is also an object destructuring assignment:

let object = {first: 1, second: 2, third: 3, some: 4};
let {first, third, fourth: some} = object;

which is equivalent to

let first = object.first;
let third = object.third;
let fourth = object.some;

Spread operator is also permitted:

let [first, ...rest] = [1, 2, 3];

would assign 1 to first, and [2, 3] to rest.

In your code, it says you could do this instead:

[this.message] = res.response.data.errors;

The documentation on prefer-destructuring lays out what it considers to be “correct”.
