isArrayLike

Checks if the provided argument is array-like (i.e. is iterable).

Use the spread operator (...) to check if the provided argument is iterable inside a try... catch block and the comma operator (,) to return the appropriate value.

const isArrayLike = val => {
  try {
    return [...val], true;
  } catch (e) {
    return false;
  }
};

isArrayLike(document.querySelectorAll('.className')); // true
isArrayLike('abc'); // true
isArrayLike(null); // false
