I'm trying to return a nested value inside setIn, the way I'm doing it now, is that I'm accessing my value I need, but I need to map it first. Immutable provides this, however, I need to use Immutable.Map().map(..) after my array. I get a returned value from my method, but it doesn't contain any values, of which it should. Anyone know another way to accomplish this?
You need to pass an iterable to the Immutable.Map() constructor, otherwise you are creating an empty map.
It's hard to be precise without more details, but assuming that 'result' is an array of resources and you need an array of resource ids, than something like this should work.
let tempStateId = newState.setIn([populateKey, 'íds'], Immutable.Map(result).map(resource => resource.id))

I have two variables with JSON files. The first is a list of keys looks like this:
keylist = ["key1","key2","key3"]
The second one is generated from a database and looks like this:
data = {
"key1"{
#further data
},
"key2"{
#further data
},
"key3"{
#further data
}
}
Now I want to access the second element of the database with the key from the keylist
data.keylist[1];
Which doesn't work because the return of keylist[1] is a String? I did some research and the use of the window function was proposed. So I tried this:
window["data." + keylist[1]]();
Which leads to a "is not a function" error. What can I do to solve this problem?
As simple as that:
const mydata = data[ keylist[1] ];
Also, your code is correct from the point of syntax, but it tells completely different than you expect it to tell.
data.keylist[1];
tells JS that you expect to have an object called data which has a property called keylist and which is (most likely) type of array, and you want to get the second element of this array.
PS: And one more point here. Your question title is not completely correct because of the difference between Arrays and Object in JS.
There is no "string keys" for arrays in JS, so you cannot "access array with a string key". Well, truly speaking there are, but not for items of array. Array items only have numeric index, which you can use to access it. Objects, in contrast to arrays, may have named properties. So when you see something like that: data = myVar['data'], you can tell that you're dealing with an object, while data = someVar[0] can be both, an Array (most likely) or also an Object with key named '0'.
I don't think the issue you're having with your first example is because it returns a key. I believe the issue is because data doesn't have a property called keylist. Instead of that, try it as
data[keylist[1]]
and see if that works for you. The reason this one should work is that, in this situation, Javascript will evaluate the string return of keylist[1] and then use it as a string index for the data variable. Let me know if this works out for you :D
You can try using using something like this.
data[keylist[1]]
I am searching a solution where I can replace a object content with other in a array of objects.
The thing is, I don't know what my function will pass, so I can't pass the values inside as keys directly, so the reference won't be copied, is there any way I can assign the value directly without passing the reference? I know that objects pass references and not values, but is there a way to do that?
I tried two ways:
state.document["atributes"].splice(state.document["atributes"][state.currentIndex],1,section);
And
state.document["atributes"][state.currentIndex] = section
Where my state.document["atributs"] is my array, and the state.currentIndex the index where I want to replace the element inside my array.
What happens at the moment is that my object can be a Table a paragraph etc.
If the objects are the same it replaces the content :/
Any help with this? Thank you
If you're only modify what in the currentIndex, try
Vue.set(state.document["atributes"], state.currentIndex, section)

I am trying to return the value under the key 'str' in an Object but I am having trouble accessing the value.
This is what is returned in the console:
Currently I am using a map function to go over the array and just return the _str value like so:
let idx = currentArray.map(function(x) {
return x._id._str;
});
However it is still returning the value as an object. How can I get just the value of the _str key?
Here is the full array without specifying the id field. This is what is returned if you jsut return 'x' in the map function.
You've clarified that the screenshot is of x._id. So to access _str, you'd use x._id[0]._str: The _str property is in the object referenced by the 0 property (the first entry in the array x._id refers to).
Note that in general, _-prefixed properties are meant not to be accessed by code outside the code responsible for the objects in question. You don't seem to be responsible for them, so accessing those properties is likely to make your code rely on undocumented properties that may change in the next "dot" release of whatever lib you're using. It's just convention, but it's a very common convention.
If you right click on the property, most browser consoles offer the ability to copy property path.
Based on this SO post and the docs, it appears that you can probably use x._id.str.
If I understand correctly, you are receiving the str value but it is an object instead of the string literal. In other words, you are getting _str: "598..." instead of "598....". A possible solution would be to use the mongo javascript function to convert the str value to a string.
In your case, I think something like return x._id.str; may work as _id is a MongoID.ObjectID.
I've also linked the documentation below for reference.
https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/method/ObjectId/
Here's a relevant SO answer as well: Convert ObjectID (Mongodb) to String in JavaScript
I think you should write x[_id]._str because _id is one of the array objects.
I have json data, an array of 50 objects representing people. Each one has parameters like id and lastName.
I load this into my controller via a resolve, EmployeeResolve, and into a variable _this.employees
I also load via $state params from a previous page a rowNumber variable that holds the ID of the record the user clicked on: _this.rowNum = $stateParams.id;let's say the id is 5.
I would like to assign to a variable now the object number 5 (for want of a better way of explaining) so that in my HTML I can bind to it as in {{controller.lastName}}
What's the syntax for getting the 5th item out of employees?
UPDATE
After several helpful comments and answers, I've gotten this far (people are now packages):
_this.recordNum = Number($stateParams.id);
_this.packages = PackagesResolve;
_this.currentPackage = _this.packages.filter(function(pkg) {
return pkg.id === _this.recordNum;
});
$log.debug('package from filter', _this.currentPackage[0].status);
Note though, I expected after all this for _this.currentPackage to contain an object, so I could simply bind to its props in the html as in currentPackage.last_name But it does not. It's a resource and I need to use the above _this.currentPackage[0].status in the log statement to get anything. And that's not going to allow binding.
A colleague suggested modifying my resolve as such
PackagesResolve: function($log, MockDataFactory) {
return MockDataFactory.query({filename: 'packages'}).$promise.then(function(response) {
return response;
});
}
Adding the whole $promise.then part. No real difference.
To reiterate what I am trying to do:
PackagesResolve is getting a json array of 50 objects. I want to be able to get the CURRENT object when its row in a table of that json is clicked.
And no, #jdvp it's not a duplicate of that other post at all. I need to do this with Angular, not jquery or straight js.
If I'm understanding your issue correctly: the object returned by resolve is the resolved promise. The "data" of the resolved promise, which in this case would be the expected array of people info, is stored inside resolve.data. So for e.g. you have EmployeeResolve, you can reference the array and store it using:
Editing based on comments:
// Assuming you've done all error checking...
_this.employees = EmployeeResolve.data;
// Now _this.employees has the array of people info.
$scope.controller = {};
$scope.controller.variableName = _this.employees[$stateParams.id];
// Now, you can access your object in your template using controller.variableName.
Now although I wouldn't recommend writing code like that in your final version, I'm sure you get the gist. ;)
Additional notes: The reason I'm creating an empty object and storing it as controller on the scope is because your question stated it. I am assuming you have your own reasons for wanting to namespace your variable inside of controller.
Hope this helps!
I am getting a model deferred object with a structure like this:
How can I find out how many objects are present inside this object (in this case, three). If I use Object.keys(myObject).length, it includes the object observer and other data also like _computeBindings,_bindings etc. I have even tried to use hasOwnProperty while calculating the length but its not giving me desired result.
One way I can figure out is to iterate over the index and get the last index value like this:
can.each(myObject,function(myObject,index){
// Get the last index value and put it into some variable
});
Is there an API for this?
can.Map has a keys function that will give you an Array of the keys in your Map and from that you can get how many Objects by checking that Array's length.
Using a can.List as your data structure would also work. The keys in your data are numeric and you need to check the length, all things that can.List is built for.
Try using myObject.attr('length')
The model _data attribute contains a copy of just the model without the bindings. The easiest way to do this is to use:
Object._data.length
