javascript find all unique values in array code example

Example 1: unique array javascript es6 Map

const data = [
  { group: 'A', name: 'SD' }, 
  { group: 'B', name: 'FI' }, 
  { group: 'A', name: 'MM' },
  { group: 'B', name: 'CO'}
];
const unique = [...new Set(data.map(item => item.group))]; // [ 'A', 'B']

Example 2: javascript find unique values in array

// usage example:
var myArray = ['a', 1, 'a', 2, '1'];
var unique = myArray.filter((v, i, a) => a.indexOf(v) === i); 

// unique is ['a', 1, 2, '1']

Example 3: javascript get unique values from array

const myArray = [1,2,3,1,5,8,1,2,9,4];
const unique = [...new Set(myArray)]; // [1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 4]

const myString = ["a","b","c","a","d","b"];
const uniqueString = [...new Set(myString)]; //["a", "b", "c", "d"]

Example 4: javascript get distinct values from array

const categories = ['General', 'Exotic', 'Extreme', 'Extreme', 'General' ,'Water', 'Extreme']
.filter((value, index, categoryArray) => categoryArray.indexOf(value) === index);

This will return an array that has the unique category names
['General', 'Exotic', 'Extreme', 'Water']

Example 5: get only unique values from array javascript

arr = [2, 2, 2, 1, 3, 3, 3,3, 4, 5];
arr = arr.sort().filter((item,i)=>!(arr[i] == arr[i+1] || arr[i-1]==arr[i]));
// this will remove all item which are repeating more then one
console.log(arr);
// [1, 4, 5]
