Immutable.js offical document of Map.setIn():
https://facebook.github.io/immutable-js/docs/#/Map/setIn
Plain JavaScript Object or Arrays may be nested within an Immutable.js Collection, and setIn() can update those values as well, treating them immutably by creating new copies of those values with the changes applied.
const { Map } = require('immutable@4.0.0-rc.9')
const originalMap = Map({
subObject: {
subKey: 'subvalue',
subSubObject: {
subSubKey: 'subSubValue'
}
}
})
originalMap.setIn(['subObject', 'subKey'], 'ha ha!')
// Map {
// "subObject": {
// subKey: "ha ha!",
// subSubObject: { subSubKey: "subSubValue" }
// }
// }
Local code causes error:
const Immutable = require('immutable')
var map1 = Immutable.Map({ 'selector': { 'type': 'bar' }});
var map2 = map1.setIn(['selector', 'type'], 'foo');
console.log(map2.toJS());
node_modules/immutable/dist/immutable.js:870
if (!condition) throw new Error(error);

Error: invalid keyPath
Cause:
Map() function does not deeply convert JavaScript Objects and Arrays to Maps and Lists, use fromJS() instead.
