javascript filter object array code example

Example 1: how to filter object in javascript

// use filter() function. Let say we have array of object.
let arr = [
  {name: "John", age: 30},
  {name: "Grin", age: 10},
  {name: "Marie", age: 50},
];
//Now I want an array in which person having age more than 40 is not
//there, i.e, I want to filter it out using age property. So
let newArr = arr.filter((person)=>(return person.age <= 40));
//filter function expects a function if it return true then it added 
//into new array, otherwise it is ignored. So new Array would be
/* [
	{name: "John", age: 30},
  	{name: "Grin", age: 10},
   ]
*/

Example 2: how to filter an array of objects in javascript

let arr=[{id:1,title:'A', status:true}, {id:3,title:'B',status:true}, {id:2, title:'xys', status:true}];
//find where title=B
let x = arr.filter((a)=>{if(a.title=='B'){return a}});
console.log(x)//[{id:3,title:'B',status:true}]

Example 3: js filter array of objects by value

	{name: “Ironman”, franchise: “Marvel”},

	{name: “Superman”, franchise: “DC”}
];

var marvelHeroes =  heroes.filter(function(hero) {

});

// [ {name: “Ironman”, franchise: “Marvel”}, {name: “Thor”, franchise: “Marvel”} ]

Example 4: javascript filter array of objects by key

var data = { records : [{ "empid": 1, "fname": "X", "lname": "Y" }, { "empid": 2, "fname": "A", "lname": "Y" }, { "empid": 3, "fname": "B", "lname": "Y" }, { "empid": 4, "fname": "C", "lname": "Y" }, { "empid": 5, "fname": "C", "lname": "Y" }] }
var empIds = [1,4,5]
var filteredArray = data.records.filter(function(itm){
  return empIds.indexOf(itm.empid) > -1;
});

filteredArray = { records : filteredArray };

Example 5: javascript filter array of objects by array

var arr = [1,2,3,4],

Example 6: array.filter in javascript

//Eg 1 - If item is unchecked, remove it from array

const array = [2, 3, 4]

if (event.target.checked) {
      newValue.push(option);
    } else {
      newValue = newValue.filter(item => item.id != option.id);
    }

//If false, it will remove the element. 2 is not equal to 2.

//Eg 2 - To return an array with length > 6

const words = ['spray', 'limit', 'elite', 'exuberant', 'destruction', 'present'];
const result = words.filter(word => word.length > 6);
