How to groupBy category
and get the average using underscore?
I have an array of objects. It should be grouped by category
and average for Analytics
is calculated from the val
property ie., 1+2 => 3. 3/total number of categories. So, 3/2 => 1.5
Expected Output: { Analytics: 1.5 }
[{
area:"Digital",
category:"Analytics",
qId:"wRHmpHHGzrYLsCEJ3",
type:"Reorganize",
userId:"M4JEJGiPZ8e9om9A",
val:1
},
{
area:"Digital",
category:"Analytics",
qId:"wRHmpHHGzrYLsCEJ3",
type:"Reorganize",
userId:"M4JEJGiPZ8e9om9A",
val:2
}]
Thanks
You can group the objects by category, then iterate over all the keys in this resulting object and reduce the values:
var types = _.groupBy(array, 'category');
var result = _.mapObject(types, function(val, key) {
return _.reduce(val, function(memo, v) {
return memo + v.val;
}, 0) / val.length;
});
var array = [{
area:"Digital",
category:"Analytics",
qId:"wRHmpHHGzrYLsCEJ3",
type:"Reorganize",
userId:"M4JEJGiPZ8e9om9A",
val:1
},
{
area:"Digital",
category:"Analytics",
qId:"wRHmpHHGzrYLsCEJ3",
type:"Reorganize",
userId:"M4JEJGiPZ8e9om9A",
val:2
}];
var types = _.groupBy(array, 'category');
var result = _.mapObject(types, function(val, key) {
return _.reduce(val, function(memo, v) {
return memo + v.val;
}, 0) / val.length;
});
console.log(result);
