使用loadsh从数组内的对象中过滤掉唯一值

Question

I am trying to get the unique category from the following array using loadsh,

[{
  "listingId": "p106a904a-b8c6-4d2d-a364-0d21e3505010",
  "section": "section1",
  "category": "VIP PASS ",
  "type": "paper",
  "availableTickets": 1
}, {
  "listingId": "p106904a-b8c6-4d2d-a364-0d21e3505010",
  "section": "section1",
  "category": "VIP PASS ",
  "type": "paper",
  "availableTickets": 2
}, {
  "listingId": "pc8f54389-4e58-482a-9535-6917c2948764",
  "section": "1",
  "category": "WIP",
  "type": "paper",
  "availableTickets": 1
}]

This is what i have tried

 this.categories = _.uniq(this.listings, function (test: ListDAO) { return test.category; });

but the above returns the same array again. how can i get the output result as,

VIP PASS and WIP

Answer 1

Without lodash and using .reduce :

let arr2 = arr.reduce((a, i) => a.indexOf(i.category) > -1 ? a : a.concat(i.category), []);

Answer 2

You need to use uniqBy as uniq only accepts a regular array with no callback for each.

https://lodash.com/docs/4.17.4#uniqBy

You can try this:

this.categories = _.uniqBy(this.listings, ({ category }) => category);

---

If you want just the strings (as per comments) you can just do:

const getCategory = ({ category }) => category;

this.categories = _.uniqBy(this.listings, getCategory).map(getCategory);

(can also use the same callback function from your OP instead of mine.)

A solution using Map and reduce .

 var arr = [{ "listingId": "p106a904a-b8c6-4d2d-a364-0d21e3505010", "section": "section1", "category": "VIP PASS ", "type": "paper", "availableTickets": 1 }, { "listingId": "p106904a-b8c6-4d2d-a364-0d21e3505010", "section": "section1", "category": "VIP PASS ", "type": "paper", "availableTickets": 2 }, { "listingId": "pc8f54389-4e58-482a-9535-6917c2948764", "section": "1", "category": "WIP", "type": "paper", "availableTickets": 1 }]; var unique = arr.reduce((map, o) => (map.has(o.category) ? map : map.set(o.category)),new Map()); console.log(Array.from(unique.keys()));
