## Description

get values from javascript objects by specifying a path.

by using this library, you can help prevent the following error from occurring:

```
Cannot read property 'foo' of undefined
```

NOTE: I've re-written / used this function so many different times, I decided to publish it
as a module.

## Getting Started

Install the module with: `npm install --save object-path-get`

```javascript
var getPath = require('object-path-get');
var obj = { foo: { bar: 'baz' } };
getPath(obj, 'foo.bar'); // result: "baz"
getPath(obj, 'foo.invalidKey', 'cool'); // result: "cool"
getPath(obj, 'foo|bar', null, '|'); // result: "baz" (with different delimiter)
getPath(obj, ['foo', 'bar']); // result "baz" (with array path)
```
