get key value from object javascript code example

Example 1: how to find the key of an value in an object

function getKeyByValue(object, value) {
  return Object.keys(object).find(key => object[key] === value);
}


const map = {"first" : "1", "second" : "2"};
console.log(getKeyByValue(map,"2"));

Example 2: javascript iterate object key values

Object.entries(obj).forEach(([key, value]) => {
	console.log(key, value);
});

Example 3: javascript iterate over object keys and values

const object1 = {
  a: 'somestring',
  b: 42
};

for (let [key, value] of Object.entries(object1)) {
  console.log(`${key}: ${value}`);
}

// expected output:
// "a: somestring"
// "b: 42"
// order is not guaranteed

Example 4: get keys objet javascript

var foo = {
  'alpha': 'puffin',
  'beta': 'beagle'
};

var keys = Object.keys(foo);
console.log(keys) // ['alpha', 'beta'] 
// (or maybe some other order, keys are unordered).

Example 5: javascript object entries

// Object Entries returns object as Array of [key,value] Array
const object1 = {
  a: 'somestring',
  b: 42
}
Object.entries(object1) // Array(2) [["a", "something"], ["b", 42]]
  .forEach(([key, value]) => console.log(`${key}: ${value}`))
// "a: somestring"
// "b: 42"

Example 6: js get object keys

myObject = {
	"key": "value"
}

Object.keys(myObject); // get array of keys
