How to load JavaScript object or call object method dynamically?

Question

Please look into the example code below

var temp = {
    load:function(x) {
        //using x need to initialized an object or call a function
        //example object name xConf.We need to do concatenate also
        var obj=x+'Conf';
        new obj();          // not working
        global.obj.add()    // not working
    }
};

Looking forward for your suggestions.

use bracket notation: `global[obj]()` and `global[obj].add()` — jcubic, Mar 10 '16 at 13:53

The following should work:

global[x + 'Conf'].addConfig();

Not that this assumes that the object is available in the global namespace.

Since he use `global` he probably use node.js. – jcubic Mar 10 '16 at 13:54
@jcubic Right, switched to global. That should work as far as I can understand? – OptimusCrime Mar 10 '16 at 13:55
@OptimusCrime looks like yes [link](https://jsfiddle.net/gc9jb8w1/) – The Reason Mar 10 '16 at 13:56
Following code working var a = x+'Conf'; global[a].addConfig(); – manashb Mar 10 '16 at 14:32
@manashb That is more or less the same as my answer. I've updated my answer to reflect your use case in more details. – OptimusCrime Mar 10 '16 at 14:36
