I implemented an aggregation function but the only problem I have now is that I lost my key: value format e.g [{name:"Apples",val:8},{name:"Banana",val: 9}].
function agrregate(a){
var targetObj = {};
var result;
var b = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(a));
var trees= b.length;
if(!trees){
trees = 0
}
for (var i = 0; i < trees; i++) {
if (!targetObj.hasOwnProperty(b[i].key)) {
targetObj[b[i].key] = 0;
}
targetObj[b[i].key] += b[i].val;
}
result = JSON.stringify(targetObj);
return result;
}
This is the result i get when agrregate function completes.
{"Apple":8,"Banana":9}
Instead of
{name:"Apple", val:8}, {name:"Banana", val:9}
Use a reducer to aggregate. You don't need to do stuff with JSON stringify/parse.
To get back to an array of objects, you use map and Object.keys
var test = [{name:"Apples",val:5},{name:"Banana",val: 9},{name:"Apples",val:3}]
var aggregate = function(arr) {
return arr.reduce(function(result, obj) { // Create one object (result)
result[obj.name] = (result[obj.name] || 0) + obj.val; // Add a new key/or increase
return result // Return the object
}, {});
};
var wrap = function(obj) {
return Object.keys(obj) // Create an array of keys
.map(function(key) {
return { // Specify the format
name: key,
val: obj[key]
};
});
};
console.log(aggregate(test));
console.log(wrap(aggregate(test)));
I want to create a function in Javascript which takes an array as argument and returns a list of objects. I have an array like this:
var arr= [10,20,30];
console.log(listFunction(arr));
The result should look like this:
{'val':10, 'restList':{'val':20, 'restList':{'val':30,'restList':'null'}}}
I have tried the forEach() function:
function listFunction(parentArr) {
var listOfObjects = [];
parentArr.forEach(function (entry, thisArg) {
var singleObj = {}
singleObj['val'] = entry;
singleObj['restList'] = singleObj;
listOfObjects[thisArg] = singleObj;
});
return listOfObjects;
};
You need to use a recursive function:
function listFunction(arr){
if(arr.length == 0){
return null;
}else{
return {val: arr[0], restList: listFunction(arr.slice(1,arr.length))};
}
}
This is the Lisp-style recursive list algorithm.
var recursiveList = function (array) {
return recursiveListHelper(arr, {});
};
var recursiveListHelper = function (array, obj) {
if (array.length === 0) //stopping condition
return null;
var car = array[0]; //current element
var cdr = array.slice(1); //rest of list
obj = {val: car};
obj.restList = recursiveListHelper(cdr, obj);
return obj;
};
You mentioned that you wanted to avoid using Array.slice. This solution uses array indexing instead of splitting into subarrays.
var recursiveIndexed = function (array) {
return recursiveIndexedHelper(array, {}, 0);
};
var recursiveIndexedHelper = function (array, obj, index) {
if (index == array.length)
return null;
var car = array[index];
obj = {val: car };
obj.restList = recursiveIndexedHelper(array, obj, index + 1);
return obj;
};
A plunker as example.
I am trying to create a javascript object like
var allUserExpiry={};
allUserExpiry[aData.userId][aData.courseId][aData.uscId] = aData;
But I am getting an error like allUserExpiry[aData.userId] undefined.
Is there a way, whereby I can set multi-level JS-Object keys? or is it important that I should go by doing allUserExpiry[aData.userId]={}, then allUserExpiry[aData.userId][aData.courseId]={} ?
Please let me know if there are any utility functions available for the same.
No, there is no way to set "multilevel keys". You need to initialize each object before trying to add properties to it.
var allUserExpiry = {};
allUserExpiry[aData.userId] = {}
allUserExpiry[aData.userId][aData.courseId] = {}
allUserExpiry[aData.userId][aData.courseId][aData.uscId] = aData;
Using Computed property names from ES6, it is possible to do:
var allUserExpiry = {
[aData.userId] = {
[aData.courseId]: {
[aData.uscId]: aData
}
}
};
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Object_initializer#Computed_property_names
Simply use loadash,
let object = {};
let property = "a.b.c";
let value = 1;
_.set(object, property, value); // sets property based on path
let value = _.get(object, property, default); // gets property based on path
Or you can do it:
function setByPath(obj, path, value) {
var parts = path.split('.');
var o = obj;
if (parts.length > 1) {
for (var i = 0; i < parts.length - 1; i++) {
if (!o[parts[i]])
o[parts[i]] = {};
o = o[parts[i]];
}
}
o[parts[parts.length - 1]] = value;
}
And use:
setByPath(obj, 'path.path2.path', someValue);
This approach has many weak places, but for fun... :)
Why not just do this?
var allUserExpiry={};
allUserExpiry[aData.userId] = {aData.courseId: {aData.uscId: aData}};
I have a pretty hacky but short way of doing it in IE9+ as well as real browsers.
Given var path = 'aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd.eee'; where path is what your intending to make into an object and var result = {}; will will create the object {aaa: {bbb: {ccc: {ddd: {eee: {}}}}}
result = {}
path.split('.').reduce(function(prev, e) {
var newObj = {};
prev[e] = newObj;
return newObj;
}, result);
will store the object in result.
How it works:
split('.') converts the input into ['aaa', 'bbb', 'ccc', 'ddd', 'eee']
reduce(function (...) {...}, result) runs through the array created by split, and for each entry will pass along a returned value to the next one. In our case we pass the new object through after adding the new object to the old one. This creates a chain of objects. reduce returns the last object you return inside of it, so we have to defined result beforehand.
This relies on using references so it won't be immediately clear how it works if you're expecting your code to be maintained by anyone else and should probably be avoided to be honest, but it works at least.
You can also use the following to create the initial structure:
var x = function(obj, keys) {
if (!obj) return;
var i, t;
for (i = 0; i < keys.length; i++) {
if (!t) {
t = obj[keys[i]] = {};
} else {
t[keys[i]] = {};
t = t[keys[i]];
}
}
};
var a = {};
x(a, ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'F']);
Another approach without strings or array as argument.
function fillObject() {
var o = arguments[0];
for(var i = 1; i < arguments.length-1; i++) {
if(!o.hasOwnProperty(arguments[i])) {
o[arguments[i]] = {};
}
if(i < arguments.length-2) {
o = o[arguments[i]];
}else {
o[arguments[i]] = arguments[i+1]
}
}
}
var myObj = {"foo":{}};
fillObject(myObj,"back","to","the","future",2);
console.log(JSON.stringify(myObj));
// {"foo":{},"back":{"to":{"the":{"future":2}}}}
But I wouldn't use it :-) It's just for fun.
Because I don't like too much intelligent algorithm. (If it was in this category)
Using lodash you can do this easily (node exists and empty check for that node)..
var lodash = require('lodash-contrib');
function invalidateRequest(obj, param) {
var valid = true;
param.forEach(function(val) {
if(!lodash.hasPath(obj, val)) {
valid = false;
} else {
if(lodash.getPath(obj, val) == null || lodash.getPath(obj, val) == undefined || lodash.getPath(obj, val) == '') {
valid = false;
}
}
});
return valid;
}
Usage:
leaveDetails = {
"startDay": 1414998000000,
"endDay": 1415084400000,
"test": { "test1" : 1234 }
};
var validate;
validate = invalidateRequest(leaveDetails, ['startDay', 'endDay', 'test.test1']);
it will return boolean.
Another solution using reduce function (thanks Brian K).
Here we created a get/set to general proposes. The first function return the value in any level. The key is splited considering the separator. the function return the value refered from last index in the key's array
The second function will set the new value considering the last index of the splited key
the code:
function getObjectMultiLevelValue(_array,key,separator){
key = key.split(separator || '.');
var _value = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(_array));
for(var ki in key){
_value = _value[key[ki]];
}
return _value;
}
function setObjectMultiLevelValue(_array,key,value,forcemode,separator){
key.split(separator || '.').reduce(function(prev, currKey, currIndex,keysArr) {
var newObj = {};
if(prev[currKey] && !forcemode){
newObj = prev[currKey];
}
if(keysArr[keysArr.length-1] == currKey){
newObj = value;
prev[currKey] = newObj;
}
prev[currKey] = newObj;
return newObj;
}, _array);
return _array;
}
//testing the function
//creating an array
var _someArray = {a:'a',b:'b',c:{c1:'c1',c2:{c21:'nothing here...'}}};
//a multilevel key to test
var _key = 'a,a1,a21';
//any value
var _value = 'new foo in a21 key forcing replace old path';
//here the new value will be inserted even if the path exists (forcemode=true). Using comma separator
setObjectMultiLevelValue(_someArray,_key,_value,true,',');
console.log('_someArray:');
console.log(JSON.stringify(_someArray));
//inserting another value in another key... using default separator
_key = 'c.c2.c21';
_value = 'new foo in c21 key';
setObjectMultiLevelValue(_someArray,_key,_value);
console.log('_someArray:');
console.log(JSON.stringify(_someArray));
//recovering the saved value with different separators
_key = 'a,a1,a21';
console.log(getObjectMultiLevelValue(_someArray,_key,','));
_key = 'c.c2.c21';
console.log(getObjectMultiLevelValue(_someArray,_key));
Let assume our object is
const data = {
//some other data
userInfo: {},
};
First, define a new property of that object
data.userInfo.vehicle = {};
then simply
data.userInfo.vehicle.vehicleType = state.userInfo.vehicleType;
I want to create a hash table with Object keys that are not converted into String.
Some thing like this:
var object1 = new Object();
var object2 = new Object();
var myHash = new HashTable();
myHash.put(object1, "value1");
myHash.put(object2, "value2");
alert(myHash.get(object1), myHash.get(object2)); // I wish that it will print value1 value2
EDIT: See my answer for full solution
Here is a simple Map implementation that will work with any type of key, including object references, and it will not mutate the key in any way:
function Map() {
var keys = [], values = [];
return {
put: function (key, value) {
var index = keys.indexOf(key);
if(index == -1) {
keys.push(key);
values.push(value);
}
else {
values[index] = value;
}
},
get: function (key) {
return values[keys.indexOf(key)];
}
};
}
While this yields the same functionality as a hash table, it's not actually implemented using a hash function since it iterates over arrays and has a worst case performance of O(n). However, for the vast majority of sensible use cases this shouldn't be a problem at all. The indexOf function is implemented by the JavaScript engine and is highly optimized.
Here is a proposal:
function HashTable() {
this.hashes = {};
}
HashTable.prototype = {
constructor: HashTable,
put: function( key, value ) {
this.hashes[ JSON.stringify( key ) ] = value;
},
get: function( key ) {
return this.hashes[ JSON.stringify( key ) ];
}
};
The API is exactly as shown in your question.
You can't play with the reference in js however (so two empty objects will look like the same to the hashtable), because you have no way to get it. See this answer for more details: How to get javascript object references or reference count?
Jsfiddle demo: http://jsfiddle.net/HKz3e/
However, for the unique side of things, you could play with the original objects, like in this way:
function HashTable() {
this.hashes = {},
this.id = 0;
}
HashTable.prototype = {
constructor: HashTable,
put: function( obj, value ) {
obj.id = this.id;
this.hashes[ this.id ] = value;
this.id++;
},
get: function( obj ) {
return this.hashes[ obj.id ];
}
};
Jsfiddle demo: http://jsfiddle.net/HKz3e/2/
This means that your objects need to have a property named id that you won't use elsewhere. If you want to have this property as non-enumerable, I suggest you take a look at defineProperty (it's not cross-browser however, even with ES5-Shim, it doesn't work in IE7).
It also means you are limited on the number of items you can store in this hashtable. Limited to 253, that is.
And now, the "it's not going to work anywhere" solution: use ES6 WeakMaps. They are done exactly for this purpose: having objects as keys. I suggest you read MDN for more information: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/WeakMap
It slightly differs from your API though (it's set and not put):
var myMap = new WeakMap(),
object1 = {},
object2 = {};
myMap.set( object1, 'value1' );
myMap.set( object2, 'value2' );
console.log( myMap.get( object1 ) ); // "value1"
console.log( myMap.get( object2 ) ); // "value2"
Jsfiddle demo with a weakmap shim: http://jsfiddle.net/Ralt/HKz3e/9/
However, weakmaps are implemented in FF and Chrome (only if you enable the "Experimental javascript features" flag in chrome however). There are shims available, like this one: https://gist.github.com/1269991. Use at your own risk.
You can also use Maps, they may more suit your needs, since you also need to store primitive values (strings) as keys. Doc, Shim.
I took #Florian Margaine's suggestion to higher level and came up with this:
function HashTable(){
var hash = new Object();
this.put = function(key, value){
if(typeof key === "string"){
hash[key] = value;
}
else{
if(key._hashtableUniqueId == undefined){
key._hashtableUniqueId = UniqueId.prototype.generateId();
}
hash[key._hashtableUniqueId] = value;
}
};
this.get = function(key){
if(typeof key === "string"){
return hash[key];
}
if(key._hashtableUniqueId == undefined){
return undefined;
}
return hash[key._hashtableUniqueId];
};
}
function UniqueId(){
}
UniqueId.prototype._id = 0;
UniqueId.prototype.generateId = function(){
return (++UniqueId.prototype._id).toString();
};
Usage
var map = new HashTable();
var object1 = new Object();
map.put(object1, "Cocakola");
alert(map.get(object1)); // Cocakola
//Overriding
map.put(object1, "Cocakola 2");
alert(map.get(object1)); // Cocakola 2
// String key is used as String
map.put("myKey", "MyValue");
alert(map.get("myKey")); // MyValue
alert(map.get("my".concat("Key"))); // MyValue
// Invalid keys
alert(map.get("unknownKey")); // undefined
alert(map.get(new Object())); // undefined
Here is a proposal, combining #Florian's solution with #Laurent's.
function HashTable() {
this.hashes = [];
}
HashTable.prototype = {
constructor: HashTable,
put: function( key, value ) {
this.hashes.push({
key: key,
value: value
});
},
get: function( key ) {
for( var i = 0; i < this.hashes.length; i++ ){
if(this.hashes[i].key == key){
return this.hashes[i].value;
}
}
}
};
It wont change your object in any way and it doesn't rely on JSON.stringify.
I know that I am a year late, but for all others who stumble upon this thread, I've written the ordered object stringify to JSON, that solves the above noted dilemma: http://stamat.wordpress.com/javascript-object-ordered-property-stringify/
Also I was playing with custom hash table implementations which is also related to the topic: http://stamat.wordpress.com/javascript-quickly-find-very-large-objects-in-a-large-array/
//SORT WITH STRINGIFICATION
var orderedStringify = function(o, fn) {
var props = [];
var res = '{';
for(var i in o) {
props.push(i);
}
props = props.sort(fn);
for(var i = 0; i < props.length; i++) {
var val = o[props[i]];
var type = types[whatis(val)];
if(type === 3) {
val = orderedStringify(val, fn);
} else if(type === 2) {
val = arrayStringify(val, fn);
} else if(type === 1) {
val = '"'+val+'"';
}
if(type !== 4)
res += '"'+props[i]+'":'+ val+',';
}
return res.substring(res, res.lastIndexOf(','))+'}';
};
//orderedStringify for array containing objects
var arrayStringify = function(a, fn) {
var res = '[';
for(var i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {
var val = a[i];
var type = types[whatis(val)];
if(type === 3) {
val = orderedStringify(val, fn);
} else if(type === 2) {
val = arrayStringify(val);
} else if(type === 1) {
val = '"'+val+'"';
}
if(type !== 4)
res += ''+ val+',';
}
return res.substring(res, res.lastIndexOf(','))+']';
}
Based on Peters answer, but with proper class design (not abusing closures), so the values are debuggable. Renamed from Map to ObjectMap, because Map is a builtin function. Also added the exists method:
ObjectMap = function() {
this.keys = [];
this.values = [];
}
ObjectMap.prototype.set = function(key, value) {
var index = this.keys.indexOf(key);
if (index == -1) {
this.keys.push(key);
this.values.push(value);
} else {
this.values[index] = value;
}
}
ObjectMap.prototype.get = function(key) {
return this.values[ this.keys.indexOf(key) ];
}
ObjectMap.prototype.exists = function(key) {
return this.keys.indexOf(key) != -1;
}
/*
TestObject = function() {}
testA = new TestObject()
testB = new TestObject()
om = new ObjectMap()
om.set(testA, true)
om.get(testB)
om.exists(testB)
om.exists(testA)
om.exists(testB)
*/
When you say you don't want your Object keys converted into Strings, I'm going to assume it's because you just don't want the entire code contents of your Objects being used as keys. This, of course, makes perfect sense.
While there is no "hash table" in Javascript per-se, you can accomplish what you're looking for by simply overriding your Object's prototype.toString and returning a valid key value that will be unique to each instance. One way to do this is with Symbol():
function Obj () {
this.symbol = Symbol() // Guaranteed to be unique to each instance
}
Obj.prototype.toString = function () {
return this.symbol // Return the unique Symbol, instead of Obj's stringified code
}
let a = new Obj()
let b = new Obj()
let table = {}
table[a] = 'A'
table[b] = 'B'
console.log(table) // {Symbol(): 'A', Symbol(): 'B'}
console.log(table[a]) // A
console.log(table[b]) // B
Using JSON.stringify() is completely awkward to me, and gives the client no real control over how their keys are uniquely identified. The objects that are used as keys should have a hashing function, but my guess is that in most cases overriding the toString() method, so that they will return unique strings, will work fine:
var myMap = {};
var myKey = { toString: function(){ return '12345' }};
var myValue = 6;
// same as myMap['12345']
myMap[myKey] = myValue;
Obviously, toString() should do something meaningful with the object's properties to create a unique string. If you want to enforce that your keys are valid, you can create a wrapper and in the get() and put() methods, add a check like:
if(!key.hasOwnProperty('toString')){
throw(new Error('keys must override toString()'));
}
But if you are going to go thru that much work, you may as well use something other than toString(); something that makes your intent more clear.
So a very simple proposal would be:
function HashTable() {
this.hashes = {};
}
HashTable.prototype = {
constructor: HashTable,
put: function( key, value ) {
// check that the key is meaningful,
// also will cause an error if primitive type
if( !key.hasOwnProperty( 'hashString' ) ){
throw( new Error( 'keys must implement hashString()' ) );
}
// use .hashString() because it makes the intent of the code clear
this.hashes[ key.hashString() ] = value;
},
get: function( key ) {
// check that the key is meaningful,
// also will cause an error if primitive type
if( !key.hasOwnProperty( 'hashString' ) ){
throw( new Error( 'keys must implement hashString()' ) );
}
// use .hashString() because it make the intent of the code clear
return this.hashes[ key.hashString() ];
}
};
Inspired by #florian, here's a way where the id doesn't need JSON.stringify:
'use strict';
module.exports = HashTable;
function HashTable () {
this.index = [];
this.table = [];
}
HashTable.prototype = {
constructor: HashTable,
set: function (id, key, value) {
var index = this.index.indexOf(id);
if (index === -1) {
index = this.index.length;
this.index.push(id);
this.table[index] = {};
}
this.table[index][key] = value;
},
get: function (id, key) {
var index = this.index.indexOf(id);
if (index === -1) {
return undefined;
}
return this.table[index][key];
}
};
I took #Ilya_Gazman solution and improved it by setting '_hashtableUniqueId' as a not enumerable property (it won't appear in JSON requests neither will be listed in for loops). Also removed UniqueId object, since it is enough using only HastTable function closure. For usage details please see Ilya_Gazman post
function HashTable() {
var hash = new Object();
return {
put: function (key, value) {
if(!HashTable.uid){
HashTable.uid = 0;
}
if (typeof key === "string") {
hash[key] = value;
} else {
if (key._hashtableUniqueId === undefined) {
Object.defineProperty(key, '_hashtableUniqueId', {
enumerable: false,
value: HashTable.uid++
});
}
hash[key._hashtableUniqueId] = value;
}
},
get: function (key) {
if (typeof key === "string") {
return hash[key];
}
if (key._hashtableUniqueId === undefined) {
return undefined;
}
return hash[key._hashtableUniqueId];
}
};
}
The best solution is to use WeakMap when you can (i.e. when you target browsers supporting it)
Otherwise you can use the following workaround (Typescript written and collision safe):
// Run this in the beginning of your app (or put it into a file you just import)
(enableObjectID)();
const uniqueId: symbol = Symbol('The unique id of an object');
function enableObjectID(): void {
if (typeof Object['id'] !== 'undefined') {
return;
}
let id: number = 0;
Object['id'] = (object: any) => {
const hasUniqueId: boolean = !!object[uniqueId];
if (!hasUniqueId) {
object[uniqueId] = ++id;
}
return object[uniqueId];
};
}
Then you can simply get a unique number for any object in your code (like if would have been for pointer address)
let objectA = {};
let objectB = {};
let dico = {};
dico[(<any>Object).id(objectA)] = "value1";
// or
dico[Object['id'](objectA);] = "value1";
// If you are not using typescript you don't need the casting
dico[Object.id(objectA)] = "value1"
I know I'm late, but here's a simple HashMap implementation:

Also, you can customize the encoder and decoder by changing encode and decode functions.
As in florian's answer, you can't play with the reference in js however (so two empty objects will look like the same to the hashtable).
class Dict{
constructor(){
this.keys = [];
this.values = [];
this.set = this.set.bind(this);
}
set(key, value){
this.keys.push(key);
this.values.push(value);
}
get(key){
return this.values[this.keys.indexOf(key)];
}
all(){
return this.keys.map((kk, ii)=>[kk, this.values[ii]]);
}
}
let d1 = new Dict();
let k1 = {1: 'a'};
d1.set(k1, 2);
console.log(d1.get(k1)); // 2
let k2 = {2: 'b'};
d1.set(k2, 3);
console.log(d1.all());
// [ [ { '1': 'a' }, 2 ], [ { '2': 'b' }, 3 ] ]
Just use the strict equality operator when looking up the object: ===
var objects = [];
objects.push(object1);
objects.push(object2);
objects[0] === object1; // true
objects[1] === object1; // false
The implementation will depend on how you store the objects in the HashTable class.
