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

To use the merge() function from the Lodash library in TypeScript, you will first need to install Lodash by running the following command in your project directory:

index.ts
npm install lodash
19 chars
2 lines

Once installed, you can import the merge() function like this:

index.ts
import { merge } from 'lodash';
32 chars
2 lines

Assuming you have two objects you would like to merge, you can call the merge() function like this:

index.ts
const object1 = {
  foo: 'bar',
  age: 42,
};

const object2 = {
  foo: 'baz',
  firstName: 'John',
};

const mergedObject = merge(object1, object2);

console.log(mergedObject);
// Output: { foo: 'baz', age: 42, firstName: 'John' }
232 chars
15 lines

Note that properties with the same name as properties in the first object (object1 in the example above) will be overwritten by the corresponding properties in the second object (object2 in the example above). If you want to merge multiple objects, you can pass additional objects as arguments to the merge() function.
