how to use the propertyof function from the underscore library in typescript

To use the propertyOf function from the Underscore library in Typescript, you can follow the steps below:

1. Install the underscore library by running the following command in your terminal:

   index.ts
   npm install underscore
   23 chars
   2 lines

2. Next, import the propertyOf function from the underscore library in your Typescript file:

   index.ts
   import { propertyOf } from 'underscore';
   41 chars
   2 lines

3. Now, you can create a function that takes an object and a property name as inputs and returns the value of that property from the object using propertyOf:

   index.ts
   function getProperty(obj: any, prop: string) {
     const propValue = propertyOf(obj)(prop);
     return propValue;
   }
   112 chars
   5 lines

4. The getProperty function can now be used to get the value of properties from objects as follows:

   index.ts
   const myObj = { name: 'John', age: 30 };
   const ageValue = getProperty(myObj, 'age'); // Returns 30
   const nameValue = getProperty(myObj, 'name'); // Returns 'John'

   4 lines

Note: the any type is used for the obj input parameter in the getProperty function as propertyOf works with any object type. However, it is recommended to use a more specific type for the obj parameter if possible.
