For example if I have two objects:

var foo = {

  x: bar,

  y: baz

}

and

var oof = {}

and I wanted to transfer the x and y values from foo to oof. Is there a way to do that using the es6 destructuring syntax?

perhaps something like:

oof{x,y} = foo

While ugly and a bit repetitive, you can do

({x: oof.x, y: oof.y} = foo);

which will read the two values of the foo object, and write them to their respective locations on the oof object.

Personally I'd still rather read

oof.x = foo.x;

oof.y = foo.y;

or

['x', 'y'].forEach(prop => oof[prop] = foo[prop]);

though.
