Null Conditional Operators

C# 6.0 has just been released and has a new nice little feature that I'd really like to use in JavaScript. They're called Null-conditional operators. These use a ?. or ?[] syntax.

What these do is essentially allow you to check that the object you've got isn't null , before trying to access a property. If the object is null , then you'll get null as the result of your property access instead.

int? length = customers?.Length;

So here int can be null, and will take that value if customers is null. What is even better is that you can chain these:

int? length = customers?.orders?.Length;

I don't believe we can do this in JavaScript, but I'm wondering what's the neatest way of doing something similar. Generally I find chaining if blocks difficult to read:

var length = null;
if(customers && customers.orders) {
    length = customers.orders.length;
}

---

Called "optional chaining", it's currently a TC39 proposal in Stage 1. A Babel plugin however is already available in v7.

Example usage:

const obj = {
  foo: {
    bar: {
      baz: 42,
    },
  },
};

const baz = obj?.foo?.bar?.baz; // 42

const safe = obj?.qux?.baz; // undefined

---

Js logical operators return not true or false , but truly or falsy value itself. For example in expression x && y , if x is falsy, then it will be returned, otherwise y will be returned. So the truth table for operator is correct.

In your case you could use expression customers && customers.orders && customers.orders.Length to get length value or the first falsy one.

Also you can do some magic like ((customers || {}).orders || {}).length (Personally, I don't like syntax and possible garbage collection pressure as well)

Or even use maybe monad.

function Option(value) {
    this.value = value;
    this.hasValue = !!value;
}

Option.prototype.map = function(s) {
    return this.hasValue
        ? new Option(this.value[s])
        : this;
}

Option.prototype.valueOrNull = function() {
    return this.hasValue ? this.value : null;
}

var length = 
    new Option(customers)
        .map("orders")
        .map("length")
        .valueOrNull();

It's longer than all the previous approaches, but clearly shows your intentions without any magic behind.
