[
{“id”:”idtest1",”name”:”aaa"},
{“id”:”idlest2”,”name”:”bbb"},
{“id”:”idlest3","name”:"ccc"},
{“id”:”idtest4","name”:"ddd”},
… ]
I want to get only the name from these arrays. And I want to create a new array using name. The value of name becomes a key and adds a static string to the value.
The static value is increased by one. What should I do?
{
“aaa" : [
"static01value", "static01value", "static01value"
],
“bbb" : [
"static02value", "static02value", "static02value"
],
…..
}
let list = [
{"id":"idtest1","name":"aaa"},
{"id":"idlest2","name":"bbb"},
{"id":"idlest3","name":"ccc"},
{"id":"idtest4","name":"ddd"},
]
let result = list.reduce((acc, {name}, i) => {
acc[name] = Array.from({ length: 3 }, () => `static0${i}value`);
return acc;
}, {});
console.log(result)
You can use reduce method and use Array.from method which
take a length for the array and a callback function which you can use
to modify that array
This is the snippet of what the code should look like, given that the static value is a bit vague:
var array = [
{ id: "idtest1", name: "aaa" },
{ id: "idlest2", name: "bbb" },
{ id: "idlest3", name: "ccc" },
{ id: "idtest4", name: "ddd" }
];
var arrName = array.map(a => a.name),
newArray = [];
arrName.forEach((a, idx) => {
var newObject = {}
newObject[a] = [];
//not quite sure what your static value is, in your example you have 3 static value
for (var i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
newObject[a].push('static value' + idx);
}
newArray.push(newObject);
});
console.log(newArray);
Please try below.
var array = [
{ id: "idtest1", name: "aaa" },
{ id: "idlest2", name: "bbb" },
{ id: "idlest3", name: "ccc" },
{ id: "idtest4", name: "ddd" }
];
const result = {};
array.forEach((item, staticIndex) => {
const staticArray = []
// add static value to array
staticArray.push('staticValue');
result[item.name] = staticArray
})
console.log('Result array is ', result);
Just try to parse your Json using es6 methods.
const array = [
{ id: "idtest1", name: "aaa" },
{ id: "idlest2", name: "bbb" },
{ id: "idlest3", name: "ccc" },
{ id: "idtest4", name: "ddd" }
];
const your_static_content = 'your_static_content'
const output = array.reduce((obj, item) => {
obj[item.name] = obj[item.name] || [];
obj[item.name].push(your_static_content);
return obj;
}, Object.create(null));
console.log(output)
const data = [
{ "id": "idtest1", "name": "aaa" },
{ "id": "idtest2", "name": "bbb" },
{ "id": "idtest3", "name": "ccc" },
{ "id": "idtest4", "name": "ddd" }
]
const getStaticValue = index => `static0${1 + index}value`
const result = data.reduce((result, {name}, index) => ({
...result,
[name]: Array.from({length:3}, getStaticValue)
}), {})
console.log(result)
I have two arrays:
Array 1:
[
{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" }
]
and array 2:
[
{ id: "abdc4051", name: "ab" },
{ id: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }
]
I need to merge these two arrays based on id and get this:
[
{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24", name: "ab" },
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22", name: "abc" }
]
How can I do this without iterating trough Object.keys?
You can do it like this -
let arr1 = [
{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" }
];
let arr2 = [
{ id: "abdc4051", name: "ab" },
{ id: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }
];
let arr3 = arr1.map((item, i) => Object.assign({}, item, arr2[i]));
console.log(arr3);
Use below code if arr1 and arr2 are in a different order:
let arr1 = [
{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" }
];
let arr2 = [
{ id: "abdc4051", name: "ab" },
{ id: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }
];
let merged = [];
for(let i=0; i<arr1.length; i++) {
merged.push({
...arr1[i],
...(arr2.find((itmInner) => itmInner.id === arr1[i].id))}
);
}
console.log(merged);
Use this if arr1 and arr2 are in a same order
let arr1 = [
{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" }
];
let arr2 = [
{ id: "abdc4051", name: "ab" },
{ id: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }
];
let merged = [];
for(let i=0; i<arr1.length; i++) {
merged.push({
...arr1[i],
...arr2[i]
});
}
console.log(merged);
You can do this in one line
let arr1 = [
{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" }
];
let arr2 = [
{ id: "abdc4051", name: "ab" },
{ id: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }
];
const mergeById = (a1, a2) =>
a1.map(itm => ({
...a2.find((item) => (item.id === itm.id) && item),
...itm
}));
console.log(mergeById(arr1, arr2));
Map over array1
Search through array2 for array1.id
If you find it ...spread the result of array2 into array1
The final array will only contain id's that match from both arrays
This solution is applicable even when the merged arrays have different sizes.
Also, even if the matching keys have different names.
Merge the two arrays by using a Map as follows:
const arr1 = [
{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" },
{ id: "abdc4053", date: "2017-01-22" }
];
const arr2 = [
{ nameId: "abdc4051", name: "ab" },
{ nameId: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }
];
const map = new Map();
arr1.forEach(item => map.set(item.id, item));
arr2.forEach(item => map.set(item.nameId, {...map.get(item.nameId), ...item}));
const mergedArr = Array.from(map.values());
console.log(JSON.stringify(mergedArr));
.as-console-wrapper { max-height: 100% !important; top: 0; }
Run the stack snippet to see the result:
[
{
"id": "abdc4051",
"date": "2017-01-24",
"nameId": "abdc4051",
"name": "ab"
},
{
"id": "abdc4052",
"date": "2017-01-22",
"nameId": "abdc4052",
"name": "abc"
},
{
"id": "abdc4053",
"date": "2017-01-22"
}
]
Here's an O(n) solution using reduce and Object.assign
const joinById = ( ...lists ) =>
Object.values(
lists.reduce(
( idx, list ) => {
list.forEach( ( record ) => {
if( idx[ record.id ] )
idx[ record.id ] = Object.assign( idx[ record.id ], record)
else
idx[ record.id ] = record
} )
return idx
},
{}
)
)
To use this function for the OP's case, pass in the arrays you want to join to joinById (notice lists is a rest parameter).
let joined = joinById(list1, list2)
Each list gets reduced to a single object where the keys are ids and the values are the objects. If there's a value at the given key already, it gets object.assign called on it and the current record.
Here's the generic O(n*m) solution, where n is the number of records and m is the number of keys. This will only work for valid object keys. You can convert any value to base64 and use that if you need to.
const join = ( keys, ...lists ) =>
lists.reduce(
( res, list ) => {
list.forEach( ( record ) => {
let hasNode = keys.reduce(
( idx, key ) => idx && idx[ record[ key ] ],
res[ 0 ].tree
)
if( hasNode ) {
const i = hasNode.i
Object.assign( res[ i ].value, record )
res[ i ].found++
} else {
let node = keys.reduce( ( idx, key ) => {
if( idx[ record[ key ] ] )
return idx[ record[ key ] ]
else
idx[ record[ key ] ] = {}
return idx[ record[ key ] ]
}, res[ 0 ].tree )
node.i = res[ 0 ].i++
res[ node.i ] = {
found: 1,
value: record
}
}
} )
return res
},
[ { i: 1, tree: {} } ]
)
.slice( 1 )
.filter( node => node.found === lists.length )
.map( n => n.value )
This is essentially the same as the joinById method, except that it keeps an index object to identify records to join. The records are stored in an array and the index stores the position of the record for the given key set and the number of lists it's been found in.
Each time the same key set is encountered, it finds the node in the tree, updates the element at it's index, and the number of times it's been found is incremented.
After joining, the idx object is removed from the array with the slice and any elements that weren't found in each set are removed. This makes it an inner join, you could remove this filter and have a full outer join.
Finally each element is mapped to it's value, and you have the joined arrays.
You could use an arbitrary count of arrays and map on the same index new objects.
var array1 = [{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" }, { id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" }],
array2 = [{ id: "abdc4051", name: "ab" }, { id: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }],
result = [array1, array2].reduce((a, b) => a.map((c, i) => Object.assign({}, c, b[i])));
console.log(result);
.as-console-wrapper { max-height: 100% !important; top: 0; }
If you have 2 arrays need to be merged based on values even its in different order
let arr1 = [
{ id:"1", value:"this", other: "that" },
{ id:"2", value:"this", other: "that" }
];
let arr2 = [
{ id:"2", key:"val2"},
{ id:"1", key:"val1"}
];
you can do like this
const result = arr1.map(item => {
const obj = arr2.find(o => o.id === item.id);
return { ...item, ...obj };
});
console.log(result);
To merge the two arrays on id, assuming the arrays are equal length:
arr1.map(item => ({
...item,
...arr2.find(({ id }) => id === item.id),
}));
We can use lodash here. _.merge works as you expected. It works with the common key present.
_.merge(array1, array2)
Non of these solutions worked for my case:
missing objects can exist in either array
runtime complexity of O(n)
notes:
I used lodash but it's easy to replace with something else
Also used Typescript (just remove/ignore the types)
import { keyBy, values } from 'lodash';
interface IStringTMap<T> {
[key: string]: T;
}
type IIdentified = {
id?: string | number;
};
export function mergeArrayById<T extends IIdentified>(
array1: T[],
array2: T[]
): T[] {
const mergedObjectMap: IStringTMap<T> = keyBy(array1, 'id');
const finalArray: T[] = [];
for (const object of array2) {
if (object.id && mergedObjectMap[object.id]) {
mergedObjectMap[object.id] = {
...mergedObjectMap[object.id],
...object,
};
} else {
finalArray.push(object);
}
}
values(mergedObjectMap).forEach(object => {
finalArray.push(object);
});
return finalArray;
}
You can use array methods
let arrayA=[
{id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24"},
{id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22"}]
let arrayB=[
{id: "abdc4051", name: "ab"},
{id: "abdc4052", name: "abc"}]
let arrayC = [];
arrayA.forEach(function(element){
arrayC.push({
id:element.id,
date:element.date,
name:(arrayB.find(e=>e.id===element.id)).name
});
});
console.log(arrayC);
//0:{id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24", name: "ab"}
//1:{id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22", name: "abc"}
Here is one-liner (order of elements in array is not important and assuming there is 1 to 1 relationship):
var newArray = array1.map(x=>Object.assign(x, array2.find(y=>y.id==x.id)))
I iterated through the first array and used the .find method on the second array to find a match where the id are equal and returned the result.
const a = [{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" },{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" }];
const b = [{ id: "abdc4051", name: "ab" },{ id: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }];
console.log(a.map(itm => ({...itm, ...b.find(elm => elm.id == itm.id)})));
You can recursively merge them into one as follows:
function mergeRecursive(obj1, obj2) {
for (var p in obj2) {
try {
// Property in destination object set; update its value.
if (obj2[p].constructor == Object) {
obj1[p] = this.mergeRecursive(obj1[p], obj2[p]);
} else {
obj1[p] = obj2[p];
}
} catch (e) {
obj1[p] = obj2[p];
}
}
return obj1;
}
arr1 = [
{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" }
];
arr2 = [
{ id: "abdc4051", name: "ab" },
{ id: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }
];
mergeRecursive(arr1, arr2)
console.log(JSON.stringify(arr1))
Irrespective of the order you can merge it by,
function merge(array,key){
let map = {};
array.forEach(val=>{
if(map[val[key]]){
map[val[key]] = {...map[val[key]],...val};
}else{
map[val[key]] = val;
}
})
return Object.keys(map).map(val=>map[val]);
}
let b = [
{ id: "abdc4051", name: "ab" },
{ id: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }
];
let a = [
{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" }
];
console.log(merge( [...a,...b], 'id'));
An approach if both two arrays have non-intersect items.
const firstArray = [
{ id: 1, name: "Alex", salutation: "Mr." },
{ id: 2, name: "Maria", salutation: "Ms." },
];
const secondArray = [
{ id: 2, address: "Larch Retreat 31", postcode: "123452" },
{ id: 3, address: "Lycroft Close 12D", postcode: "123009" },
];
const mergeArr = (arr1, arr2) => {
const obj = {};
arr1.forEach(item => {
obj[item.id] = item;
});
arr2.forEach(item => {
obj[item.id]
? (obj[item.id] = { ...obj[item.id], ...item })
: (obj[item.id] = item);
});
return Object.values(obj);
};
const output = mergeArr(firstArray, secondArray);
console.log(output);

Well... assuming both arrays are of the same length, I would probably do something like this:
var newArr = []
for (var i = 0; i < array1.length; i++ {
if (array1[i].id === array2[i].id) {
newArr.push({id: array1[i].id, date: array1[i].date, name: array2[i].name});
}
}
I was able to achieve this with a nested mapping of the two arrays and updating the initial array:
member.map(mem => {
return memberInfo.map(info => {
if (info.id === mem.userId) {
mem.date = info.date;
return mem;
}
}
}
There are a lot of solutions available for this, But, We can simply use for loop and if conditions to get merged arrays.
const firstArray = [
{ id: 1, name: "Alex", salutation: "Mr." },
{ id: 2, name: "Maria", salutation: "Ms." },
];
const secondArray = [
{ id: 1, address: "Larch Retreat 31", postcode: "123452" },
{ id: 2, address: "Lycroft Close 12D", postcode: "123009" },
];
let mergedArray: any = [];
for (const arr1 of firstArray) {
for (arr2 doc of secondArray) {
if (arr1.id === arr2.id) {
mergedArray.push({ ...arr1, ...arr2 });
}
}
}
console.log(mergedArray)
Here is converting the best answer (jsbisht) into a function that accepts the keys as arguments.
const mergeArraysByKeyMatch = (array1, array2, key1, key2) => {
const map = new Map();
array1.forEach((item) => map.set(item[key1], item));
array2.forEach((item) =>
map.set(item[key2], { ...map.get(item[key2]), ...item })
);
const merged = Array.from(map.values());
return merged;
};
A Typescript O(n+m) (which could be classified as O(n)) solution; without lodash:
// RequireAtLeastOne from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40510611/typescript-interface-require-one-of-two-properties-to-exist/49725198#49725198
type RequireAtLeastOne<T, Keys extends keyof T = keyof T> = Pick<
T,
Exclude<keyof T, Keys>
> &
{
[K in Keys]-?: Required<Pick<T, K>> & Partial<Pick<T, Exclude<Keys, K>>>;
}[Keys];
export const mergeDualArraysOnKey = <
K extends PropertyKey,
T extends RequireAtLeastOne<{ [f in PropertyKey]?: unknown }, K>
>(
key: K,
...lists: [T[], T[]]
): T[] => {
const lookup: { [key in string]: number } = {};
return lists[0].concat(lists[1]).reduce((acc: T[], value: T, i: number) => {
const lookupKey = `${value[key]}`;
if (lookup.hasOwnProperty(lookupKey)) {
acc[lookup[lookupKey]] = Object.assign({}, acc[lookup[lookupKey]], value);
} else {
acc.push(value);
lookup[lookupKey] = acc.length - 1;
}
return acc;
}, []);
};
First concatenates the two arrays and then iterates through the newly created array. It uses a lookup table (object) to store the index of an item in the final merged array which has the same key and merges the objects inplace.
If this needed to be extended to handle more arrays, could use a loop or recursion as a wrapping function:
const mergeArrays = <
K extends PropertyKey,
T extends RequireAtLeastOne<{ [f in PropertyKey]?: unknown }, K>
>(
key: K,
...lists: T[][]
): T[] => {
if (lists.length === 1) {
return lists[0];
}
const l1 = lists.pop() || [];
const l2 = lists.pop() || [];
return mergeArrays(key, mergeDualArraysOnKey(key, l1, l2), ...lists);
};
with usage being:
const arr1 = [
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" },
{ id: "abdc4052", location: "US" },
{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4053", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4054", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4055", location: "US" },
];
const arr2 = [
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" },
{ id: "abdc4052", name: "abc" },
{ id: "abdc4055", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4055", date: "2017-01-24", name: "abcd" },
];
const arr3 = [{ id: "abdc4056", location: "US" }];
const arr4 = [
{ id: "abdc4056", name: "abcde" },
{ id: "abdc4051", name: "ab--ab" },
];
mergeArrays<
"id",
{
id: string;
date?: string;
location?: string;
name?: string;
}
>("id", arr1, arr2, arr3, arr4)
Base on your example, you can do it this way:
const arrayOne = [
{ id: "abdc4051", date: "2017-01-24" },
{ id: "abdc4052", date: "2017-01-22" }
]
const arrayTwo = [
{ id: "abdc4051", name: "ab" },
{ id: "abdc4052", name: "abc" }
]
const mergeArrays = () => {
arrayOne.forEach((item, i) => {
const matchedFound = arrayTwo.findIndex(a => a.id === item.id);
arrayOne[i] = {
...item,
...matchedFound,
}
});
};
mergeArrays();
console.log(arrayOne);
This is a version when you have an object and an array and you want to merge them and give the array a key value so it fits into the object nicely.

{ "id" : "1", "filename" : "myfile1", "score" : 33.1 },

I have two arrays of objects(arr1 and arr2). I want to select objects from arr1 where arr1.id == arr2.typeId and add to result arr2.Price
var arr1 =
[{"id":20,"name":"name1"},
{"id":24,"name":"name2"},
{"id":25,"name":"name3"},
{"id":28,"name":"name4"},
{"id":29,"name":"name5"}]
var arr2 =
[{"typeId":20,"Price":500},
{"typeId":24,"Price":1100},
{"typeId":28,"Price":1000}]
How can I get the following?
var result =
[{"item":{"id":20,"name":"name1"}, "price":"500"}},
{{"item":{"id":24,"name":"name2"}, "price":"1100"},
{{"item":{"id":28,"name":"name4"}, "price":"1000"}]
var result = arr1.filter(function(obj1){
return arr2.some(function(obj2){
return obj1.id === obj2.typeId;
});
})
You can use reduce() on arr2 and then check if object with same id exists in arr1 with find().
var arr1 =
[{"id":20,"name":"name1"},
{"id":24,"name":"name2"},
{"id":25,"name":"name3"},
{"id":28,"name":"name4"},
{"id":29,"name":"name5"}]
var arr2 =
[{"typeId":20,"Price":500},
{"typeId":24,"Price":1100},
{"typeId":28,"Price":1000}]
var result = arr2.reduce(function(r, e) {
var c = arr1.find(a => e.typeId == a.id)
if(c) r.push({item: c, price: e.Price})
return r
}, [])
console.log(result)
You could create an object without any prototypes with Object.create as hash table and push the new object only if both arrays have a common id.
var arr1 = [{ id: 20, name: "name1" }, { id: 24, name: "name2" }, { id: 25, name: "name3" }, { id: 28, name: "name4" }, { id: 29, name: "name5" }],
arr2 = [{ typeId: 20, Price: 500 }, { typeId: 24, Price: 1100 }, { typeId: 28, Price: 1000 }],
hash = Object.create(null),
result = [];
arr1.forEach(function (a) {
hash[a.id] = a;
});
arr2.forEach(function (a) {
if (hash[a.typeId]) {
result.push({ item: hash[a.typeId], price: a.Price });
}
});
console.log(result);

Another approach, using Array#forEach.
var arr1 = [{id:20,name:"name1"},{id:24,name:"name2"},{id:25,name:"name3"},{id:28,name:"name4"},{id:29,name:"name5"}],
arr2 = [{typeId:20,Price:500},{typeId:24,Price:1100},{typeId:28,Price:1e3}],
result = [];
arr2.forEach(function(v){
var elem = arr1.find(c => c.id == v.typeId); //find corresponding element from the `arr1` array
result.push({item: elem, price: v.Price}); //push an object containing `item` and `price` keys into the result array
});
console.log(result); //reveal the result
