How to Access JavaScript property case insensitive

var myObject = { "mIxeDCaSEKeY": "value" };

var searchKey = 'mixedCaseKey';
var asLowercase = searchKey.toLowerCase();
myObject[Object.keys(myObject).find(key => key.toLowerCase() === asLowercase)];

Here’s the getter:

Object.defineProperty(Object.prototype, "getProp", {
    value: function (prop) {
        var key,self = this;
        for (key in self) {
            if (key.toLowerCase() == prop.toLowerCase()) {
                return self[key];
            }
        }
    },
    //this keeps jquery happy
    enumerable: false
});

Here’s the setter:

Object.defineProperty(Object.prototype, "setProp", {
    value: function (prop, val) {
        var key,self = this;
        var found = false;
        if (Object.keys(self).length > 0) {
            for (key in self) {
                if (key.toLowerCase() == prop.toLowerCase()) {
                    //set existing property
                    found = true;                        
                    self[key] = val;
                    break;
                }
            }
        }

        if (!found) {
            //if the property was not found, create it
            self[prop] = val;
        }  

        return val;
    },
    //this keeps jquery happy
    enumerable: false
});

Now that we’ve created those functions, our code is super clean and concise and just works.

Case-insensitive getting:

var obj = {foo: 'bar', camelCase: 'humpy'}

obj.getProp("FOO");          //returns 'bar'
obj.getProp("fOO");          //returns 'bar'
obj.getProp("CAMELCASE");    //returns 'humpy' 
obj.getProp("CamelCase");    //returns 'humpy'

Case-insensitive setting:

var obj = {foo: 'bar', camelCase: 'humpy'}

obj.setProp('CAmelCasE', 'super humpy');     //sets prop 'camelCase' to 'super humpy'
obj.setProp('newProp', 'newval');      //creates prop 'newProp' and sets val to 'newval'  
obj.setProp('NewProp', 'anotherval');  //sets prop 'newProp' to 'anotherval'
