Implement objectToAlternatingCase function

[Joshua Byrd]

In response to Ash's question, it might be an idea to quickly implement this functionality.

So we can do somthing like:

import { objectToAlternatingCase } from "@abcnews/alternating-case-to-object";

const myObject = { test: "object" };

const myString: string = objectToAlternatingCase(myObject);

@AshKyd has said he's rolled his own version of this, so it could be a simple matter of pasting it in this repo with a little export.

I'm using this. It doesn't deal with complex data types or anything.

function actoEncode(obj) {
  return Object.entries(obj)
    .map(([key, value]) => {
      return [key.toUpperCase(), String(value).toLowerCase()].join('');
    })
    .join('');
}

I don't think it needs to deal with much. Strings, Numbers, Booleans ... anything else?

The decoder also handles arrays so probably also that.

Have started a branch https://github.com/abcnews/alternating-case-to-object/tree/object-to-alternating-case

Yep, good point. So group: ['first', 'second', 'third'] will turn into 'GROUPfirstGROUPsecondGROUPthird'
