=========

Get data from a JSON object by path.

## Install

    npm install getbypath

## Usage

    var getByPath = require('getbypath');

    var obj = { foo: { bar: { baz: 'thedata', biz: ['one', 'two'] }}};

    var bar = getByPath(obj, 'foo.bar.baz');

    console.log(bar);

    console.log(getByPath(obj, 'foo.bar'));

    console.log(getByPath(obj, 'foo.bar.biz'));

    //produces the following output

    thedata

    { baz: 'thedata', biz: [ 'one', 'two' ] }

    [ 'one', 'two' ]

    // use getByPath with a third argument true to create path

    var newPath = getByPath(obj, 'my.newPath', true);

    console.log(newPath); // {}

    console.log(obj);

    /*

    {

        foo: {

            bar: {

                baz: 'thedata',

                biz: ['one', 'two']

            }

        },
