array.filter object entries code example

Example 1: filter array object by its elements

const things = {
  thing: [
    { place: 'here', name: 'stuff' },
    { place: 'there', name: 'morestuff1' },
    { place: 'there', name: 'morestuff2' }, 
  ],
};

const removeDuplicates = (array, key) => {
  return array.reduce((arr, item) => {
    const removed = arr.filter(i => i[key] !== item[key]);
    return [...removed, item];
  }, []);
};

console.log(removeDuplicates(things.thing, 'place'));
// > [{ place: 'here', name: 'stuff' }, { place: 'there', name: 'morestuff2' }]

Example 2: javascript filter array of objects

let people = [
  { name: "Steve", age: 27, country: "America" },
  { name: "Jacob", age: 24, country: "America" }
];

let filteredPeople = people.filter(function (currentElement) {
  // the current value is an object, so you can check on its properties
  return currentElement.country === "America" && currentElement.age < 25;
});

console.log(filteredPeople);
// [{ name: "Jacob", age: 24, country: "America" }]
