groupBy lodash code example

Example 1: lodash deep clone object

const clone = require('lodash/clone'); 
const cloneDeep = require('lodash/clonedeep');

const shallowCopy = clone(originalObject);
const deepCopy = clonedeep(originalObject);

Example 2: how to collect keys using lodash javascript

import * as _ from 'lodash';

const objectMap = {'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'};
const allKeys = _.keys(objectMap); //Returns a string[]. Here it will be ['key1','key2'];

Example 3: lodash merge

import merge from 'lodash/merge'

let object = {  'a': [{ 'b': 2 }, { 'd': 4 }]}; 
let other = {  'a': [{ 'c': 3 }, { 'e': 5 }]}; 
merge(object, other); // => { 'a': [{ 'b': 2, 'c': 3 }, { 'd': 4, 'e': 5 }] }

Example 4: lodash groupby return array

export const groupArrayBy = (arr, groupBy) => {

    let newArr = []
    arr.map((item) => {
        if(item[groupBy]) {
            let finded = newArr.filter((newItem) => newItem[groupBy] === item[groupBy])
            if(finded.length > 0) {
                finded[0].products.push(item)
            } else {
                newArr.push({category: item[groupBy], products: [item]})
            }
        }
    })

    return newArr
}

Example 5: lodash groupby return array

let arr = [{
	"birthdate": "1993",
	"name": "Ben"
},
{
	"birthdate": "1994",
	"name": "John"
},
{
	"birthdate": "1995",
	"name": "Larry"
},
{
	"birthdate": "1995",
	"name": "Nicole"
},
{
	"birthdate": "1996",
	"name": "Jane"
},
{
	"birthdate": "1996",
	"name": "Janet"
},
{
	"birthdate": "1996",
	"name": "Dora"
},
];

const res = arr.reduce((ac, a) => {
let temp = ac.find(x => x.birthdate === a.birthdate);
if (!temp) ac.push({ ...a,
	name: [a.name]
})
else temp.name.push(a.name)
return ac;
}, [])
console.log(res);
