# Create

# Object Create

The Object Create node allows you to create a new JavaScript object in your Magick spell. It's a fundamental node for working with data in a structured format.

## Inputs

* `flow` (required): The input flow that triggers the creation of the new object.

## Outputs

* `flow`: The output flow after the object has been created, allowing you to chain further actions.
* `object`: The newly created JavaScript object.

## Configuration

* `hiddenProperties`: An array of property names that should be hidden from the node's configuration interface. By default, this includes `["hiddenProperties", "valueTypes", "valueTypeOptions"]`.
* `socketValues`: An array specifying the types of values that can be added as properties to the object. The default value is `["string", "array", "boolean", "integer"]`.
* `socketInputs`: An array where you can define the names and types of the object's properties. Each array element should be an object with `name` and `valueType` properties.

## Usage

1. Add the Object Create node to your spell.
2. Connect the input `flow` to the desired trigger or previous node's output.
3. In the node's configuration panel, click the "+" button to add properties to the object.
4. For each property, enter a name and select a type from the dropdown (string, array, boolean, or integer).
5. Enter the desired values for each property.
6. Connect the `object` output to other nodes that need to use the created object.
7. Connect the `flow` output to the next action you want to perform after the object is created.

## Example

Here's an example of how to use the Object Create node to create a user object:

1. Add an Object Create node to your spell.
2. Configure the node with the following properties:
   * `name` (string): "John Doe"
   * `age` (integer): 30
   * `email` (string): "[john@example.com](mailto:john@example.com)"
   * `subscribed` (boolean): true
3. Connect the `object` output to a Debug node to log the created user object.
4. Run the spell and check the debug output to see the created object:
   ```json theme={null}
   {
     "name": "John Doe",
     "age": 30,
     "email": "john@example.com",
     "subscribed": true
   }
   ```

## Best Practices

* Use meaningful names for your object properties to keep your spell easy to understand.
* Be mindful of the property types you choose. Make sure they match the expected data format.
* If you have many properties, consider breaking them down into smaller, more focused objects to improve readability and maintainability.

## Common Issues

* Forgetting to connect the `flow` input can prevent the object from being created.
* Incorrect property types can lead to unexpected behavior when using the object in other nodes.
* If you don't see your desired property type in the dropdown, make sure it's included in the `socketValues` configuration array.
