how to use the clonedeepwith function from the lodash library in typescript

To use the clonedeepwith function from the Lodash library in TypeScript, you need to import it from the library and specify its usage. This function allows deep cloning of an object with customizable cloning.

Here is an example of how to use clonedeepwith in TypeScript:

index.ts
import * as _ from 'lodash';

// Define object to be cloned
const objectToClone = {
  a: 1,
  b: {
    c: 2,
    d: {
      e: 3
    }
  }
};

// Define customizer function for cloning objects
function customizer(value: any) {
  if (_.isNumber(value)) {
    return value * 2;
  }
}

// Use clonedeepwith function to deeply clone object with customizer
const clonedObject = _.cloneDeepWith(objectToClone, customizer);

// Output the cloned object and original object for comparison
console.log('Original Object: ', objectToClone);
console.log('Cloned Object: ', clonedObject);

In this example, the clonedeepwith function is imported from the lodash library using the wildcard import syntax. An object is defined to be cloned, and a customizer function is created to handle the cloning of numbers by doubling their values.

The clonedeepwith function is then called with the object to clone and the customizer function as arguments. The function deeply clones the object, calling the customizer function on each cloned value, and returns the cloned object.

Finally, the cloned object and original object are logged to the console for comparison.
