How to assign the same value to different properties in a JS object?-CodePudding

Is there a way to do so? Something like:

const myObject = { firstProp = secondProp: 1 }

Which would be equal to:

const myObject = { firstProp: 1, secondProp: 1 }

Thanks!

CodePudding user response：

No, there's no way to do that. In an object literal, every property has its own independent expression.

As alternatives to repeating the value, you can use an assignment statement

const myObject = {};
myObect.firstProp = myObject.secondProp = 1;

or a simple variable

const value = 1;
const myObject = { firstProp: value, secondProp: value };

or build the object programmatically

const myObject = Object.fromEntries(["first", "second"].map(key => [key, 1]));
