get()

The get method returns the item at a given key or index. If the key or index does not exist, null is returned:

const collection = collect({
  firstname: "Chuck",
  lastname: "Norris"
});

collection.get("lastname");

//=> Norris

collection.get("middlename");

//=> null
const collection = collect(["a", "b", "c"]);

collection.get(1);

//=> b

You may optionally pass a default value as the second argument:

const collection = collect({
  firstname: "Chuck",
  lastname: "Norris"
});

collection.get("middlename", "default-value");
//=> default-value

You may even pass a callback as the default value. The result of the callback will be returned if the specified key does not exist:

const collection = collect({
  firstname: "Chuck",
  lastname: "Norris"
});

collection.get("middlename", () => "default-value");

//=> default-value
