This post will show you how to unpack a complex javascript object using the ES6 spread operator.
Let’s suppose you have the following javascript object

const person = {
  firstName: "santosh",
  lastName: "singh",
  address: {
    phone: {
      mobile: "99991235",
      countryCode: "60"
    },
    email: "santosh.singh@example.com"
  }
}

and you want to get mobile and countryCode from the object.

const {
    phone: {
      mobile,
      countryCode
    }
  
} = person;
console.log(mobile,countryCode); // 99991235,60

How to rename the property while unpacking the object

Let’s suppose you want to rename the property mobile as mobileNumber while using the spread operator, you can add a new property name using : as below

const {
    phone: {
      mobile:mobileNumber,
      countryCode
    }
  
} = person;

if you try to print mobile property javascript will throw an error that mobile is not defined because we renamed it to mobileNumber
