how to remove duplicate values from an object code example
Example 1: how to remove duplicate array object in javascript
let person = [{name: "john"}, {name: "jane"}, {name: "imelda"}, {name: "john"}];
function removeDuplicates(data, key) {
return [
...new Map(data.map(item => [key(item), item])).values()
]
};
console.log(removeDuplicates(person, item => item.name));
Example 2: combine 2 "arrays with objects" and remove object duplicates javascript
const joinWithoutDupes = (A, B) => {
const a = new Set(A.map(x => x.item))
const b = new Set(B.map(x => x.item))
return [...A.filter(x => !b.has(x.item)), ...B.filter(x => !a.has(x.item))]
}
const output = joinWithoutDupes([{item:"apple",description: "lorem"},{item:"peach",description: "impsum"}], [{item:"apple", description: "dolor"},{item:"grape", description: "enum"}])
console.log(output)
