Push to object instead of array












0















I'm using underscore to extract some props into a separate object but the structure is not as I want:



let element = {
foo: 0,
bar: 1,
baz: _.map(
_.filter(element.properties, (prop) =>
_.contains(validationProps, prop.name)), (rule) =>
({ [rule.name]: rule.value }) )
}


.. returns an array of objects for baz:



[ {"required":true} , {"maxLength":242} ]


.. what I need however is:



{ "required":true, "maxLength":242 }

  • What does element.properties look like? Plus, element still doesn't exist when u refer to itself from inside itself. element = {a: '1', foo: element.a} element.foo is undefined

Or use JavaScript's Array.prototype.reduce()




The reduce() method executes a reducer function (that you provide) on each member of the array resulting in a single output value.







let data = [{
"name": "label",
"value": "Short 2"
},
{
"name": "required",
"value": true
},
{
"name": "maxLength",
"value": 242
}
];

let reformatted = data.reduce((pv, cv) => {
pv[cv.name] = cv.value;
return pv;
}, {});

console.log(reformatted);
