I have an array of objects:
[
{ key : '11', value : '1100', $$hashKey : '00X' },
{ key : '22', value : '2200', $$hashKey : '018' }
];
How do I convert it into the following by JavaScript?
{
"11": "1100",
"22": "2200"
}
Tiny ES6 solution can look like:
var arr = [{key:"11", value:"1100"},{key:"22", value:"2200"}];
var object = arr.reduce(
(obj, item) => Object.assign(obj, { [item.key]: item.value }), {});
console.log(object)
Also, if you use object spread, than it can look like:
var object = arr.reduce((obj, item) => ({...obj, [item.key]: item.value}) ,{});
One more solution that is 99% faster is(tested on jsperf):
var object = arr.reduce((obj, item) => (obj[item.key] = item.value, obj) ,{});
Here we benefit from comma operator, it evaluates all expression before comma and returns a last one(after last comma). So we don't copy obj each time, rather assigning new property to it.
This should do it:
var array = [
{ key: 'k1', value: 'v1' },
{ key: 'k2', value: 'v2' },
{ key: 'k3', value: 'v3' }
];
var mapped = array.map(item => ({ [item.key]: item.value }) );
var newObj = Object.assign({}, ...mapped );
console.log(newObj );
One-liner:
var newObj = Object.assign({}, ...(array.map(item => ({ [item.key]: item.value }) )));
You're probably looking for something like this:
// original
var arr = [
{key : '11', value : '1100', $$hashKey : '00X' },
{key : '22', value : '2200', $$hashKey : '018' }
];
//convert
var result = {};
for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
result[arr[i].key] = arr[i].value;
}
console.log(result);
I like the functional approach to achieve this task:
var arr = [{ key:"11", value:"1100" }, { key:"22", value:"2200" }];
var result = arr.reduce(function(obj,item){
obj[item.key] = item.value;
return obj;
}, {});
Note: Last {} is the initial obj value for reduce function, if you won't provide the initial value the first arr element will be used (which is probably undesirable).

Using Object.fromEntries:
const array = [
{ key: "key1", value: "value1" },
{ key: "key2", value: "value2" },
];
const obj = Object.fromEntries(array.map(item => [item.key, item.value]));
console.log(obj);
A clean way to do this using modern JavaScript is as follows:
const array = [
{ name: "something", value: "something" },
{ name: "somethingElse", value: "something else" },
];
const newObject = Object.assign({}, ...array.map(item => ({ [item.name]: item.value })));
// >> { something: "something", somethingElse: "something else" }
you can merge array of objects in to one object in one line:
const obj = Object.assign({}, ...array);
Use lodash!
const obj = _.keyBy(arrayOfObjects, 'keyName')
Update: The world kept turning. Use a functional approach instead.
Previous answer
Here you go:
var arr = [{ key: "11", value: "1100" }, { key: "22", value: "2200" }];
var result = {};
for (var i=0, len=arr.length; i < len; i++) {
result[arr[i].key] = arr[i].value;
}
console.log(result); // {11: "1000", 22: "2200"}
Simple way using reduce
// Input :
const data = [{key: 'value'}, {otherKey: 'otherValue'}];
data.reduce((prev, curr) => ({...prev, ...curr}) , {});
// Output
{key: 'value', otherKey: 'otherValue'}
More simple Using Object.assign
Object.assign({}, ...array);
Using Underscore.js:
var myArray = [
Object { key="11", value="1100", $$hashKey="00X"},
Object { key="22", value="2200", $$hashKey="018"}
];
var myObj = _.object(_.pluck(myArray, 'key'), _.pluck(myArray, 'value'));
Nearby 2022, I like this approach specially when the array of objects are dynamic which also suggested based on #AdarshMadrecha's test case scenario,
const array = [
{ key : '11', value : '1100', $$hashKey : '00X' },
{ key : '22', value : '2200', $$hashKey : '018' }];
let obj = {};
array.forEach( v => { obj[v.key] = v.value }) //assign to new object
console.log(obj) //{11: '1100', 22: '2200'}
let array = [
{ key: "key1", value: "value1" },
{ key: "key2", value: "value2" },
];
let arr = {};
arr = array.map((event) => ({ ...arr, [event.key]: event.value }));
console.log(arr);
Was did yesterday
// Convert the task data or array to the object for use in the above form
const {clientData} = taskData.reduce((obj, item) => {
// Use the clientData (You can set your own key name) as the key and the
// entire item as the value
obj['clientData'] = item
return obj
}, {});
Here's how to dynamically accept the above as a string and interpolate it into an object:
var stringObject = '[Object { key="11", value="1100", $$hashKey="00X"}, Object { key="22", value="2200", $$hashKey="018"}]';
function interpolateStringObject(stringObject) {
var jsObj = {};
var processedObj = stringObject.split("[Object { ");
processedObj = processedObj[1].split("},");
$.each(processedObj, function (i, v) {
jsObj[v.split("key=")[1].split(",")[0]] = v.split("value=")[1].split(",")[0].replace(/\"/g,'');
});
return jsObj
}
var t = interpolateStringObject(stringObject); //t is the object you want
http://jsfiddle.net/3QKmX/1/
// original
var arr = [{
key: '11',
value: '1100',
$$hashKey: '00X'
},
{
key: '22',
value: '2200',
$$hashKey: '018'
}
];
// My solution
var obj = {};
for (let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
obj[arr[i].key] = arr[i].value;
}
console.log(obj)
You can use the mapKeys lodash function for that. Just one line of code!
Please refer to this complete code sample (copy paste this into repl.it or similar):
import _ from 'lodash';
// or commonjs:
// const _ = require('lodash');
let a = [{ id: 23, title: 'meat' }, { id: 45, title: 'fish' }, { id: 71, title: 'fruit' }]
let b = _.mapKeys(a, 'id');
console.log(b);
// b:
// { '23': { id: 23, title: 'meat' },
// '45': { id: 45, title: 'fish' },
// '71': { id: 71, title: 'fruit' } }
I need to transmit some data, that has too many key-value pairs.
As the keys are similar, I dont want to transmit them with each object.
Consider I have the following data:
[
{
x:11,
y:12
},{
x:21,
y:22
},{
x:31,
y:32
},{
x:41,
y:42
}
];
And I need the final output as
[ [x,y],[[11,12],[21,22],[31,32],[41,42]] ] OR
[ [x,y],[11,12],[21,22],[31,32],[41,42] ]
On the other end, I should be able to convert back to its original form.
It would be great if it can handle an additional key in some of the objects
I think I have seen lodash or underscore function for something close/similar to this, but I'm not able to find it right now.
NOTE: I don't know what the keys will be
Lodash v4.17.1

Using Array#reduce
var arr = [{
x: 11,
y: 12
}, {
x: 21,
y: 22
}, {
x: 31,
y: 32
}, {
x: 41,
y: 42
}];
var keys = Object.keys(arr[0]);
var op = arr.reduce(function(a, b) {
var arr = keys.reduce(function(x, y) {
return x.concat([b[y]]);
}, [])
return a.concat([arr]);
}, [keys]); //If all the objects are having identical keys!
console.log(JSON.stringify(op));
A little more verbose way of doing it:
[Edit: added the function to convert it back]
function convert(arr) {
var retArr = [ [/* keys (retArr[0]) */], [/* values (retArr[1]) */] ]
arr.forEach(function(obj){
// create new array for new sets of values
retArr[1].push([])
// put all of the keys in the correct array
for (var key in obj) {
if (obj.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
// does the key exist in the array yet?
if (retArr[0].indexOf(key) === -1) {
retArr[0].push(key)
}
// get last index of retArr[1] and push on the values
retArr[1][retArr[1].length - 1].push(obj[key])
}
}
})
return retArr
}
function reConvert(arr) {
var retArr = []
var keys = arr[0]
arr[1].forEach(function(itemArr){
var obj = {}
itemArr.forEach(function(item, i){
obj[keys[i]] = item
})
retArr.push(obj)
})
return retArr
}
var objArr = [
{
x:11,
y:12
},{
x:21,
y:22
},{
x:31,
y:32
},{
x:41,
y:42
}
]
var arrFromObj = convert(objArr)
var objFromArr = reConvert(arrFromObj)
console.log(arrFromObj)
console.log(objFromArr)
A solution using Underscore.
First work out what the keys are:
var keys = _.chain(data)
.map(_.keys)
.flatten()
.uniq()
.value();
Then map across the data to pick out the value for each key:
var result = [
keys,
_.map(data, item => _.map(keys, key => item[key]))
];
and back again:
var thereAndBackAgain = _.map(result[1], item => _.omit(_.object(result[0], item), _.isUndefined));
Lodash's version of object is zipObject and omit using a predicate is omitBy:
var thereAndBackAgain = _.map(result[1], item => _.omitBy(_.zipObject(result[0], item), _.isUndefined));
var data = [
{
x:11,
y:12,
aa: 9
},{
x:21,
y:22
},{
x:31,
y:32,
z: 0
},{
x:41,
y:42
}
];
var keys = _.chain(data)
.map(_.keys)
.flatten()
.uniq()
.value();
var result = [
keys,
_.map(data, item => _.map(keys, key => item[key]))
];
var thereAndBackAgain = _.map(result[1], item => _.omit(_.object(result[0], item), _.isUndefined));
console.log(result)
console.log(thereAndBackAgain)
<script src="

In ES6 you can do it by reducing it with Object.values(), and Object.keys(). You can restore it using a combination of Array.prototype.map() and Array.prototype.reduce():
const convertStructure = (data) => data.reduce((s, item) => {
s[1].push(Object.values(item));
return s;
}, [Object.keys(data[0]), []]); // all objects should be the same, so we can take the keys from the 1st object
const restoreStructure = ([keys, data]) => data.map((item) => item.reduce((o, v, i) => {
o[keys[i]] = v;
return o;
}, {}));
const data = [{
x: 11,
y: 12
}, {
x: 21,
y: 22
}, {
x: 31,
y: 32
}, {
x: 41,
y: 42
}];
const convertedStructure = convertStructure(data);
console.log('convertedStructure:\n', convertedStructure);
const restoredStructure = restoreStructure(convertedStructure);
console.log('restoredStructure:\n', restoredStructure);
I know the title might sounds confusing, but i'm stuck for an hour using $.each. Basically I have 2 arrays
[{"section_name":"abc","id":1},{"section_name":"xyz","id":2}];
and [{"toy":"car","section_id":1},{"tool":"knife","section_id":1},{"weapons":"cutter","section_id":2}];
How do I put one into another as a new property key like
[{
"section_name": "abc",
"id": 1,
"new_property_name": [{
"toy": "car"
}, {
"tool": "knife"
}]
}, {
"section_name": "xyz",
"id": 2,
"new_property_name": [{
"weapon": "cutter"
}]
}]
ES6 Solution :
const arr = [{"section_name":"abc","id":1},{"section_name":"xyz","id":2}];
const arr2 = [{"toy":"car","id":1},{"tool":"knife","id":1},{"weapons":"cutter","id":2}];
const res = arr.map((section,index) => {
section.new_property_name = arr2.filter(item => item.id === section.id);
return section;
});
EDIT : Like georg mentionned in the comments, the solution above is actually mutating arr, it modifies the original arr (if you log the arr after mapping it, you will see it has changed, mutated the arr and have the new_property_name). It makes the .map() useless, a simple forEach() is indeed more appropriate and save one line.
arr.forEach(section => {
section.new_property_name = arr2.filter(item => item.id === section.id));
});
try this
var data1 = [{"section_name":"abc","id":1},{"section_name":"xyz","id":2}];
var data2 = [{"toy":"car","id":1},{"tool":"knife","id":1},{"weapons":"cutter","id":2}];
var map = {};
//first iterate data1 the create a map of all the objects by its ids
data1.forEach( function( obj ){ map[ obj.id ] = obj });
//Iterate data2 and populate the new_property_name of all the ids
data2.forEach( function(obj){
var id = obj.id;
map[ id ].new_property_name = map[ id ].new_property_name || [];
delete obj.id;
map[ id ].new_property_name.push( obj );
});
//just get only the values from the map
var output = Object.keys(map).map(function(key){ return map[ key ] });
console.log(output);
You could use ah hash table for look up and build a new object for inserting into the new_property_name array.
var array1 = [{ "section_name": "abc", "id": 1 }, { "section_name": "xyz", "id": 2 }],
array2 = [{ "toy": "car", "section_id": 1 }, { "tool": "knife", "section_id": 1 }, { "weapons": "cutter", "section_id": 2 }],
hash = Object.create(null);
array1.forEach(function (a) {
a.new_property_name = [];
hash[a.id] = a;
});
array2.forEach(function (a) {
hash[a.section_id].new_property_name.push(Object.keys(a).reduce(function (r, k) {
if (k !== 'section_id') {
r[k] = a[k];
}
return r;
}, {}));
});
console.log(array1);
Seems like by using Jquery $.merge() Function you can achieve what you need. Then we have concat function too which can be used to merge one array with another.
Use Object.assign()
In your case you can do it like Object.assign(array1[0], array2[0]).
It's very good for combining objects, so in your case you just need to combine your objects within the array.
Example of code:
var objA = [{"section_name":"abc","id":1},{"section_name":"xyz","id":2}];
var objB = [{"toy":"car","section_id":1},{"tool":"knife","section_id":1},{"weapons":"cutter","section_id":2}];
var objC = Object.assign({},objA[0],objB[0]);
console.log(JSON.stringify(objC));// {"section_name":"abc","id":1,"toy":"car","section_id":1}
For more info, you can refer here: Object.assign()
var firstArray = [{"section_name":"abc","id":1},{"section_name":"xyz","id":2}],
secondArray = [{"toy":"car","section_id":1},{"tool":"knife","section_id":1},{"weapons":"cutter","section_id":2}];
var hash = Object.create(null);
firstArray.forEach(s => {
hash[s.id] = s;
s['new_property_name'] = [];
});
secondArray.forEach(i => hash[i['section_id']]['new_property_name'].push(i));
console.log(firstArray);
I have a 2-dimensional array that looks like this:
var myArray = [
['Name', 'Age', 'Profession'],
['John', 34, 'Teacher'],
['Jane', 45, 'Artist']
];
I want to transform this array to an object that looks like this:
var myObject =
{
"Name":
{
"Name": "Name",
"Age": "Age",
"Profession": "Profession"
}
"John":
{
"Name": "John",
"Age": 34,
"Profession": "Teacher"
}
"Jane":
{
"Name": "Jane",
"Age": 45,
"Profession": "Artist"
}
};
In another thread I came across Array.prototype.reduce() and I was able to do the following:
var myObject = myArray.reduce(function(result, currentItem) {
result[currentItem[0]] = currentItem;
return result;
}, {})
Logger.log(myObject);
// {John=[John, 34.0, Teacher], Jane=[Jane, 45.0, Artist], Name=[Name, Age, Profession]}
However, I don't know how to apply reduce() to get a nested object or if I need a different approach here.
Andreas
Edit:
I am looking for an dynamical solution, that is: I don't know beforehand how many elements my array contains or what their values are.
I'd prefer a solution that is faster and more elegant than iterating through all elements (if possible).
A solution with reduce and an object and some nested properties.
var myArray = [['Name', 'Age', 'Profession'], ['John', 34, 'Teacher'], ['Jane', 45, 'Artist']],
result = myArray.reduce(function (r, a) {
// get the first element ('Name', 'John', 'Jane') of myArray and take it as a key
// for the object. generate a new object if there is no object available
// read here: r.Name = r.Name || {}
r[a[0]] = r[a[0]] || {};
// iterate over ['Name', 'Age', 'Profession']
myArray[0].forEach(function (b, i) {
// assign the according value to the according property of the object
// read here: r.Name.Name = 'Name'
// next r.Name.Age = 'Age'
r[a[0]][b] = a[i];
});
return r;
}, {});
document.write('<pre>' + JSON.stringify(result, 0, 4) + '</pre>');
myArray.reduce(
function ( r, a )
{
var row = a.reduce(
function ( rr, cc, i )
{
rr[ myArray[ 0 ][ i ] ] = cc;
return rr;
}, {} );
r[ a[ 0 ] ] = row;
return r;
}, {} );
The idea is that do the same reduce at each row.
var myArray = [
['Name', 'Age', 'Profession'],
['John', 34, 'Teacher'],
['Jane', 45, 'Artist']
];
var result = myArray.reduce(
function(r, a) {
var row = a.reduce(
function(rr, cc, i) {
rr[myArray[0][i]] = cc;
return rr;
}, {});
r[a[0]] = row;
return r;
}, {});
document.write('<pre>' + JSON.stringify(result, 0, 4) + '</pre>');
I think that the easiest way to do this could be using map function
var myArray = [
['Name', 'Age', 'Profession'],
['John', 34, 'Teacher'],
['Jane', 45, 'Artist']
];
var myObjects = myArray.map(function(el) {
return {
'Name': el[0],
'Age': el[1],
'Profession': el[2]
}
});
The other way is to just use on for statement
for(int i=1;myArray.length;i++)
{
var el = myArray[i];
myObjects2[el[0]] = {
'Name': el[0],
'Age': el[1],
'Profession': el[2]
}
}
I have JSON like
var JObject = [
{
a:"A1",
b:100,
c:800
},
{
a:"B1",
b:300,
c:400
}
];
I need maximum value from this JSON...it has to return 800 if it return key and column index
Since this is tagged in d3.
I will give a d3 answer.
Working code below
var kary = [
{
a:"A1",
b:100,
c:800
},
{
a:"B1",
b:1300,
c:400
},
{
a:"D1",
b:300,
c:400
}
];
var max = d3.max(kary, function(d){ return d3.max(d3.values(d).filter(function(d1){ return !isNaN(d1)}))});
console.log(max)
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/d3/3.4.11/d3.min.js"></script>
Hope this helps!
You can do something like this
var JObject = [{
a: "A1",
b: 100,
c: 800
}, {
a: "B1",
b: 300,
c: 400
}];
var res = Math.max.apply(null,JObject.map(function(v) {
// iterate over array element and getting max value from result array
var r = [];
for (var val in v) {
// iterate over object inside array
if (v.hasOwnProperty(val)) {
var num = parseInt(v[val], 10);
// parsing the value for integer output
r.push(isNaN(num) ? 0 : num);
// pushing value to array, in case of `Nan` pushing it as 0
}
}
return Math.max.apply(null,r);
// getting max value from object values
}));
console.log(res);
You could make this more or less generic - and probably shorten it into a single reduce statement.
var data = [
{a:"A1",b:100,c:800},
{a:"B1",b:300,c:400}
];
data
.reduce(function(acc, x, i) {
if (x.b > x.c) {
return acc.concat({key: 'b', value: x.b });
}
return acc.concat({key: 'c', value: x.c });
}, [])
.reduce(function(acc, x, i) {
if (x.value > acc.value) {
return {
key: x.key,
value: x.value,
index: i
};
}
return acc;
}, {key: '', value: Number.MIN_VALUE, index: -1});
If you are using a library like lodash or underscore you can simply do:
_.max(_.map(JObject, function(a){
return _.max(_.values(a));
}));
You can also solve it with reduce:
_.reduce(JObject, function(val, a){
return _.max(_.values(a)) > val ? _.max(_.values(a)) : val;
},0);
