Lightweight Java implementation of lodash .get() function

Question

I'm accessing deeply nested json objects in an Android project, and I'd like to not have to do upwards of 4 null checks to reference specific objects.

In JS, Lodash has the .get() function, which makes accessing those contents much more concise. Is there something similar available for Java?

edit: FWIW, I wrote an implementation of this using Reflection. Because of the inherent performance hit of Reflection, this is probably not a good candidate for hot code paths. Would be interested to see alternatives.

Try this - https://javadev.github.io/underscore-java/ . It's underscore.js in java with find() .
