Object from lists
Pair a list of names with a list of values into one object.
object.from_lists
In a flow
“Works out object from lists whenever a step wired to it needs the answer.”
[name, coins] + [Sam, 50] → {name: Sam, coins: 50}
What it does
Pair a list of names with a list of values into one object. It's a value node: no white pins, it works out its answer when a step wired to it needs it. It gives 1 value later steps can use. Find it under Values in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when a step needs a value worked out first: pair a list of names with a list of values into one object.
When not to
For a value that never changes, type it into the setting instead of wiring a node.
Typical wiring
Sockets: settings you can wire
- Keys List
-
The names, like [name, coins].
What goes there: Type it in the side panel, or wire in a list. e.g. Hello there, and more like it
If it's empty: Optional. Left empty and unwired, the step runs without it.

Values it gives

If it's empty: Empty when the step didn't make one (it stopped early or was skipped); steps reading it get nothing.
