TypeScript - Take object out of array based on attribute value
I'd use filter or reduce:
let array = [
{ id: 1, value: "itemname" },
{ id: 2, value: "itemname" }
];
let item1 = array.filter(item => item.id === 1)[0];
let item2 = array.reduce((prev, current) => prev || current.id === 1 ? current : null);
console.log(item1); // Object {id: 1, value: "itemname"}
console.log(item2); // Object {id: 1, value: "itemname"}
(code in playground)
If you care about iterating over the entire array then use some:
let item;
array.some(i => {
if (i.id === 1) {
item = i;
return true;
}
return false;
});
(code in playground)
You can search a certain value in array of objects using TypeScript dynamically if you need to search the value from all fields of the object without specifying column
var searchText = 'first';
let items = [
{ id: 1, name: "first", grade: "A" },
{ id: 2, name: "second", grade: "B" }
];
This below code will search for the value
var result = items.filter(item =>
Object.keys(item).some(k => item[k] != null &&
item[k].toString().toLowerCase()
.includes(searchText.toLowerCase()))
);
Same approach can be used to make a Search Filter Pipe in angularjs 4 using TypeScript
Use Array.find
:
let array = [
{ id: 1, value: "itemname" },
{ id: 2, value: "itemname" }
];
let item1 = array.find(i => i.id === 1);
