My IVR app receives business data in the form of JS objects and arrays. For example, the name of one of our customers is accessed as follows:

customerData.customerList[customerIndex].customerName

Now, in some cases, customerName is undefined, because the entire object is undefined. Right now, in order to catch that, I have some nested logic that checks each level for being undefined, before finally checking the last:

if (typeof customerData != 'undefined' &&
  typeof customerData.customerList &&
  typeof customerData.customerList[customerIndex] != 'undefined' &&
  typeof customerData.customerList[customerIndex].customerName != 'undefined')
{
  //do something awesome with customer name, here
}

Is there an easier (cleaner?) way to acplish this, without having to check each field on the object?

Thanks.

Reset to default 6

You need to write the first typeof to ensure that customerData has been declared. After that, you can skip testing for undefined upto any level you wish

((customerData || {}).customerList || [])[customerIndex] !== undefined

I know this works, but would venture to guess there will be some objections... which I'd love to hear:

var customerName = function(){
   try{ return customerData.customerList[customerIndex].customerName; }
   catch(e){ return null; }
};
if (customerName) {
   ...
}
