Deep properties

The deep properties add properties to the objects created from your stamps. These are default properties of your objects. But unlike regular (shallow) properties these are deeply merged together by stamp deep merging algorithm.
const AuthServiceToken = stampit.deepProps({
  Secrets: {
    authServiceToken: process.env.AUTH_SERVICE_TOKEN
  }
})
​
const S3KeyIdAndSecret = stampit.deepProps({
  Secrets: {
    S3: {
      keyId: process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
      secret: process.env.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
    }
  }
})
​
const DefaultSecrets = stampit(AuthServiceToken, S3KeyIdAndSecret) // composing them together
​
DefaultSecrets().Secrets.authServiceToken === process.env.AUTH_SERVICE_TOKEN
DefaultSecrets().Secrets.S3.keyId === process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID
DefaultSecrets().Secrets.S3.secret === process.env.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
Descriptor merging algorithm
The deepProperties are deeply merged using stamp deep merging algorithm. See below - the Secrets value is always a new object.
S3KeyIdAndSecret().Secrets !== DefaultSecrets().Secrets // NEVER EQUAL! NO MATTER WHAT!
Sometimes a regular (shallow) property has the same name as a deep property. While creating an object instance the shallow property wins. See stamp internals.
const NullSecrets = stampit.props({
  Secrets: null
})
​
const AuthServiceToken = stampit.deepProps({
  Secrets: {
    authServiceToken: process.env.AUTH_SERVICE_TOKEN
  }
})
​
const Result = NullSecrets.compose(AuthServiceToken)
​
Result().Secrets === null // the regular property overwrites deep property while creating an object
Other ways to add deep properties
Exactly the same stamp can be created in few ways. Here they all are.
const mySecrets = { authServiceToken: process.env.AUTH_SERVICE_TOKEN }
​
const AuthServiceToken = stampit({
  deepProps: {
    Secrets: mySecrets
  }
})
​
const HasLog = stampit({
  deepProperties: {
    Secrets: mySecrets
  }
})
​
const HasLog = stampit.deepProps({
  Secrets: mySecrets
})
​
const HasLog = stampit.deepProperties({
  Secrets: mySecrets
})
​
const HasLog = stampit().deepProps({
  Secrets: mySecrets
})
​
const HasLog = stampit().deepProperties({
  Secrets: mySecrets
})
