@abydin/convert-array-to-object v2.4.0

convert-array-to-object

Effortlessly convert arrays into structured JavaScript objects with the convert-array-to-object npm package. This lightweight utility simplifies the process of transforming arrays into key-value paired objects, enhancing your data manipulation tasks.

Installation

install with Npm

npm install @abydin/convert-array-to-object

install with Yarn

yarn add @abydin/convert-array-to-object

Usage

Here are some examples of how to use the convertArrToObj function:

Usage

const convertArrToObj = require("@abydin/convert-array-to-object");

// Example usage:
const inputArray = [
	{ id: 1, name: "John" },
	{ id: 2, name: "Jane" },
	{ id: 3, name: "Doe" },
];

// Without reArr option
const outputObject = convertArrToObj({
	arr: inputArray,
	callBack: (item) => item.name,
	key: "id",
});

console.log(outputObject);
// Output: { '1': 'John', '2': 'Jane', '3': 'Doe' }

// With reArr option
const outputArray = convertArrToObj({
	arr: inputArray,
	callBack: (item) => item.name,
	key: "id",
	reArr: true,
});

console.log(outputArray);
// Output: [ 'John', 'Jane', 'Doe' ]

API

convertArrToObj(options)

Parameters

• options (Object):
  • arr (Array): The input array of objects.
  • callBack (Function, optional): A callback function to transform each item in the array.
  • key (String): The key to use as the property in the resulting object or array.
  • reArr (Boolean, optional): If set to true, the function returns an array of values instead of an object.

Returns

• If reArr is false (default): Returns an object where keys are taken from the specified key and values are the result of the optional callBack function.
• If reArr is true: Returns an array of values derived from the specified key and optional callBack function.

Examples

Basic Usage

const inputArray = [
	{ id: 1, name: "John" },
	{ id: 2, name: "Jane" },
	{ id: 3, name: "Doe" },
];

const outputObject = convertArrToObj({
	arr: inputArray,
	key: "id",
});

console.log(outputObject);
// Output: { '1': { id: 1, name: 'John' }, '2': { id: 2, name: 'Jane' }, '3': { id: 3, name: 'Doe' } }

Transforming Values with Callback

You can use the callBack option to transform values during the conversion process. The callBack function takes each item in the array as its argument and should return the transformed value.

Example

const inputArray = [
	{ id: 1, name: "John" },
	{ id: 2, name: "Jane" },
	{ id: 3, name: "Doe" },
];

const outputObject = convertArrToObj({
	arr: inputArray,
	key: "id",
	callBack: (item) => item.name.toUpperCase(),
});

console.log(outputObject);
// Output: { '1': 'JOHN', '2': 'JANE', '3': 'DOE' }

Using reArr Option

The reArr option allows you to control the output format. When set to true, the function returns an array of values instead of an object.

Example

Consider an array of user objects:

const users = [
	{ id: 1, name: "John", age: 25 },
	{ id: 2, name: "Jane", age: 30 },
	{ id: 3, name: "Doe", age: 22 },
];
const userNamesArray = convertArrToObj({
	arr: users,
	key: "id",
	callBack: (user) => user.name,
	reArr: true,
});

console.log(userNamesArray);
// Output: [ 'John', 'Jane', 'Doe' ]
