JS: Remove object from nested array and return parent array
var arr = [{"id":10,"name":"Parent Brand 1","parent":null,"author":1,"deleted_at":null,"created_at":"2017-02-02 09:55:51","updated_at":"2017-02-02 09:55:51","subBrands":[{"id":31,"name":"Sub Brand 6","parent":10,"author":1,"deleted_at":null,"created_at":"2017-02-02 11:24:49","updated_at":"2017-02-02 11:42:02"},{"id":32,"name":"Sub Brand 7","parent":10,"author":1,"deleted_at":null,"created_at":"2017-02-02 11:24:57","updated_at":"2017-02-02 11:42:18"},{"id":33,"name":"Sub Brand 8","parent":10,"author":1,"deleted_at":null,"created_at":"2017-02-02 11:25:04","updated_at":"2017-02-02 11:42:34"},{"id":34,"name":"Sub Brand 9","parent":10,"author":1,"deleted_at":null,"created_at":"2017-02-02 11:25:39","updated_at":"2017-02-02 11:42:43"},{"id":35,"name":"Sub Brand 10","parent":10,"author":1,"deleted_at":null,"created_at":"2017-02-02 11:25:46","updated_at":"2017-02-02 11:42:52"},{"id":36,"name":"Sub Brand 4","parent":10,"author":1,"deleted_at":null,"created_at":"2017-02-02 11:43:53","updated_at":"2017-02-02 11:43:53"}]},{"id":12,"name":"Parent Brand 2","parent":null,"author":1,"deleted_at":null,"created_at":"2017-02-02 09:56:16","updated_at":"2017-02-02 09:56:16","subBrands":[]},{"id":16,"name":"Brand no children","parent":null,"author":1,"deleted_at":null,"created_at":"2017-02-02 10:37:40","updated_at":"2017-02-02 10:37:40","subBrands":[]},{"id":37,"name":"Whoops brand","parent":null,"author":1,"deleted_at":null,"created_at":"2017-02-02 11:44:10","updated_at":"2017-02-02 11:44:10","subBrands":[]}];
var id = prompt("Id of subbrands to remove: ");
arr.forEach(function(o) {
o.subBrands = o.subBrands.filter(s => s.id != id);
});
console.log(arr);
You could iterate the parent part, and the children and if found splice the object.
