JavaScript: Reflect.has

New in JS2015.

Reflect.has( obj, key )

Return true if obj has property key key (string key or symbol key), or in prototype chain. Else false. Similar to key in obj [see “in” Operator] , but as a function instead of a operator.

const u = {p:3};
console.log( Reflect.has ( u , "p" ) ); // true
console.log( Reflect.has ( u , "y" ) ); // false

Example with property key in parent object.

// Reflect.has return true if property is own property or in prototype chain
const ob1 = {p:3};
const ob2 = Object.create (ob1);
console.log( Reflect.has ( ob2 , "p" ) ); // true

Example with symbol key.

// Reflect.has works with both string and symbol keys

const sy = Symbol();

const ob = {};
ob["st"] = 3; // add a string key
ob[sy] = 4;   // add a symbol key

console.log( Reflect.has ( ob , "st" ) ); // true
console.log( Reflect.has ( ob , sy ) ); // true
