# get-dtype-of [![NPM version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/get-dtype-of.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/get-dtype-of) [![NPM downloads](https://img.shields.io/npm/dm/get-dtype-of.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/get-dtype-of) [![Known Vulnerabilities](https://snyk.io/test/github/grjan7/get-dtype-of/badge.svg)](https://snyk.io/test/github/grjan7/get-dtype-of) ## Description This package returns the type of `input`. By default, the returned data type can be a `string | number | boolean | array | object | null | undefined | function`. Setting `refineObject` to `true` returns the refined type of `object` (e.g., Date, Map, Set, Buffer, EventEmitter). ## Installation ```sh npm i get-dtype-of ``` ### Usage #### `getTypeOf(input, refineObject)` - **input** | any - **refineObject** | boolean | default: false #### Examples ```js const getTypeOf = require('get-dtype-of'); ``` | Without Option | Returns | With Option (refineObject: true) | Returns | | :-----------------------------|:----------|:--------------------------------------|:----------| | | | | | | getTypeOf(`"Hello"`) | string | getTypeOf(`"Hello"`, `true`) | string | | | | | | | getTypeOf(`412`) | number | getTypeOf(`412`, `true`) | number | | | | | | | getTypeOf(`true`) | boolean | getTypeOf(`true`, `true`) | boolean | | | | | | | getTypeOf(`undefined`) | undefined | getTypeOf(`undefined`, `true`) | undefined | | | | | | | getTypeOf(`["a", "b"]`) | array | getTypeOf(`["a", "b"]`, `true`) | array | | | | | | | getTypeOf(`null`) | null | getTypeOf(`null`, `true`) | null | | | | | | | getTypeOf(`stream`) | function | getTypeOf(`stream`, `true`) | function | | | | | | | getTypeOf(`{ name: "John" }`) | object | getTypeOf(`{ name: "John" }`, `true`) | object | | | | | | | getTypeOf(`/[a-z]/`) | object | getTypeOf(`/[a-z]/`, `true`) | RegExp | | | | | | | getTypeOf(`new Date()`) | object | getTypeOf(`new Date()`, `true`) | Date | | | | | | | getTypeOf(`new Set()`) | object | getTypeOf(`new Set()`, `true`) | Set | | | | | |
