I have my original objects as follow. All I need is to just extract few properties from existing one and create new object.
var data = [{
id: 3,
name: Axe,
location: alkt
}, {
id: 5,
name: Roy,
location: grelad
}]
I need my output as,
var data_new = [{
id: 3,
name: Axe
}, {
id: 5,
name: Roy,
}]
How to implement in underscore js or any simple method. Possible its a large JSON object.
If there are just few properties you want to extract then simple Array.prototype.map will works fine:
var data = [{
id: 3,
name: 'Axe',
location: 'alkt'
}, {
id: 5,
name: 'Roy',
location: 'grelad'
}]
var result = data.map(function(obj) {
return {
id: obj.id,
name: obj.name
};
});
alert(JSON.stringify(result, null, 4));
Use pick in undescorejs http://underscorejs.org/#pick
Or omit http://underscorejs.org/#omit
_.pick({name: 'moe', age: 50, userid: 'moe1'}, 'name', 'age');
=> {name: 'moe', age: 50}
_.pick({name: 'moe', age: 50, userid: 'moe1'}, function(value, key, object) {
return _.isNumber(value);
});
=> {age: 50}
It you want remove each item's location
var data_new = _.map(data, function(item) {
return _.omit(item, 'location');
});
If all you want is remove properties from objects in an array, you could just delete
them while iterating with forEach
:
var data_new = data;
data_new.forEach(function(obj){ delete obj.location; /* or any other */ });
$scope.data_new = [];
for(i in $scope.data){
$scope.data_new.push(
{ id: $scope.data[i].id, name: $scope.data[i].name }
)
}
