Lodash _.truthy() Method

The Lodash _.truthy() method checks whether the given value is truthy or not and returns the corresponding boolean value. A truthy value is one that coerces to true in a boolean context.

Syntax:

_.truthy( value );

Parameters: This method accepts single parameter as mentioned above and described below:

  • value: Given value to be checked for truthy value.

Return Value: This method returns a Boolean value true if the given value is truthy, else false.

Note: This will not work in normal JavaScript because it requires the lodash.js contrib library to be installed. Lodash.js contrib library can be installed using npm install lodash-contrib.

Example 1:

Javascript




// Defining underscore lodash variable 
var _ = require('lodash-contrib'); 
  
var bool = _.truthy(true); 
console.log("Given Value is True or not : ", bool);
  
var bool = _.truthy(false); 
console.log("Given Value is True or not : ", bool);


Output:

Given Value is True or not : true
Given Value is True or not : false

Example 2:

Javascript




// Defining underscore lodash variable 
var _ = require('lodash-contrib'); 
  
var bool = _.truthy(10); 
console.log("Given Value is True or not : ", bool);
  
var bool = _.truthy([10, 30, 50]); 
console.log("Given Value is True or not : ", bool);
  
var bool = _.truthy({"G" : "neveropen"}); 
console.log("Given Value is True or not : ", bool);


Output:

Given Value is True or not : true
Given Value is True or not : true
Given Value is True or not : true
