js indexof array of objects code example

Example 1: javascript indexOf object value in array

// Get index of object with specific value in array
const needle = 3; // needle
const haystack = [{ id: 1 }, { id: 2 }, { id: 3 }]; // haystack
const index = haystack.findIndex(item => item.id === needle);

Example 2: using index of on array of objects

arr = [{x: "a", y: 1}, {x: "something", y: 2}]
arr.findIndex(obj => obj.x === "a" && obj.y === 1);

Example 3: findindex js

// 	findIndex(callback fn)  

//	.... return index (when condition meets)
//  .... return -1 (if condition not meets)

const array = [5, 12, 8, 130, 44];

/// it returns the index of number which satisfy the condition true
const index = array.findIndex((item)=> item>10);   //1

/// now we can check what element at that index...
console.log(array[index]); // array[1]

Example 4: index of value in array

// for dictionary case use findIndex 
var imageList = [
   {value: 100},
   {value: 200},
   {value: 300},
   {value: 400},
   {value: 500}
];
var index = imageList.findIndex(img => img.value === 200);

var hello = {
    hello: 'world',
    foo: 'bar'
};
var qaz = {
    hello: 'stevie',
    foo: 'baz'
}

var myArray = [];
myArray.push(hello,qaz);

var indexOfStevie = myArray.findIndex(i => i.hello === "stevie");
