Duplicating an data object

Hello, in order to duplicate an object with all its children, I had to use a jQuery function, please is there a better way in Vue? I am using Vue 0.12.1

duplicateThis: function (field) {
    var currentField = this.fields[field.index];

    var insertField = {
        name: currentField.name,
        type: currentField.type,
        description: currentField.description,
        options: $.extend(true, {}, currentField.options),
        required: currentField.required
    };

    this.fields.splice(field.index + 1, 0, insertField);
}

Thank you

Have you tried JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(field))?

var obj = { a: 1 }; var copy = Object.assign({}, obj); console.log(copy); // { a: 1 }
