# to-object-path [![NPM version](https://badge.fury.io/js/to-object-path.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/js/to-object-path)

> Create an object path from a list or array of strings.

## Install

Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/)

```sh
$ npm i to-object-path --save
```

## Usage

```js
var toPath = require('to-object-path');

toPath('foo', 'bar', 'baz');
toPath('foo', ['bar', 'baz']);
//=> 'foo.bar.baz'
```

Also supports passing an arguments object (without having to slice args):

```js
function foo()
  return toPath(arguments);
}

foo('foo', 'bar', 'baz');
foo('foo', ['bar', 'baz']);
//=> 'foo.bar.baz'
```

Visit the [example](./example.js) to see how this could be used in an application.
