array key-value filter in javascript code example

Example 1: javascript filter array of objects by key

var data = { records : [{ "empid": 1, "fname": "X", "lname": "Y" }, { "empid": 2, "fname": "A", "lname": "Y" }, { "empid": 3, "fname": "B", "lname": "Y" }, { "empid": 4, "fname": "C", "lname": "Y" }, { "empid": 5, "fname": "C", "lname": "Y" }] }
var empIds = [1,4,5]
var filteredArray = data.records.filter(function(itm){
  return empIds.indexOf(itm.empid) > -1;
});

filteredArray = { records : filteredArray };

Example 2: js filter object

/** filter object by key or value */

/** filter object function */
function filterObj( obj, predicate ) {
	var result = {}, key;

	for ( key in obj ) {
		if ( obj.hasOwnProperty( key ) && predicate( key, obj[ key ] ) ) {
			result[ key ] = obj[ key ];
		}
	}

	return result;
};

// example

// set object
var obj = {
	name : 'john',
	lastName : 'smith',
	age : 32
}

// filter out parameters using key and value
var filteredObj = filterObj( obj, function( key, value ) {
	return key !== 'age' && value !== 'smith'
});

// show result
console.log( filteredObj ); // { name: "john" }
