无法从json对象数组访问json对象中的字段

Question

This is the array of JSON objects I get when I am doing a query on MongoDB using Mongoose library. I am getting a response in the form of an array. Now I am trying to generate the customised JSON object and send it across as a response

[{
    _id: 5 c759f301b164e139f2df980,
    Sno: 1,
    MaterialName: 'Material1',
    MaterialId: '0000000000000000ABCDA001',
    LocationName: 'RWH_S1_SZ_AL1',
    LocationId: '00000000000000001111A001',
    Quantity: '50',
    DeliveryLocationName: 'IN4_SEC1',
    DeliveryLocationID: '00000000000000003333C001',
    PickedUp: 'Yes/No(1/0)',
    PickTimeStamp: null,
    Delivered: 'Yes/No(1/0)',
    DeliveryTimeStamp: null
},
{
    _id: 5 c759f301b164e139f2df981,
    Sno: 2,
    MaterialName: 'Material2',
    MaterialId: '0000000000000000ABCDB001',
    LocationName: 'RWH_S1_SZ_AL2',
    LocationId: '00000000000000001111A001',
    Quantity: '10',
    DeliveryLocationName: 'IN4_SEC1',
    DeliveryLocationID: '00000000000000003333C001',
    PickedUp: null,
    PickTimeStamp: null,
    Delivered: null,
    DeliveryTimeStamp: null
},
{
    _id: 5 c759f301b164e139f2df982,
    Sno: 3,
    MaterialName: 'Material3',
    MaterialId: '0000000000000000ABCDC001',
    LocationName: 'RWH_S1_SZ_AL3',
    LocationId: '00000000000000002222B001',
    Quantity: '30',
    DeliveryLocationName: 'IN4_SEC1',
    DeliveryLocationID: '00000000000000003333C001',
    PickedUp: null,
    PickTimeStamp: null,
    Delivered: null,
    DeliveryTimeStamp: null
}]   

I am getting this array as a response(resp) to a MongoDB query using mongoose.

Now I am trying to generate customized JSON objects by accessing the fields from the received JSON objects array.so when I am doing like this below here 5 is no of objects in the JSON array

for (var i = 0; i <= 5; i++) {
    var json = {
        LINE1: "MaterialName": resp[i].MaterialName,
        "MaterialId": resp[i].MaterialId,
        "LocationName": resp[i].LocationName,
        "LocationId": resp[i].LocationId,
        "Quantity": resp[i].Quantity,
        "DeliveryLocationName": resp[i].DeliveryLocationName,
        "DeliveryLocationId": resp[i].DeliveryLocationId
    }
}

Type error comes up and says property 0 not defined at LINE1 is there a problem with accessing the array this way. What should I do now? please help me.

Answer 1

Your main problem is that this syntax is not valid:

 var json = { LINE1: "foo": "bar", "lala": "lolo" } 

 .as-console {background-color:black !important; color:lime;} 

You need to declare the LINE1 key as an object , like this:

 var json = { LINE1: {"foo": "bar", "lala": "lolo"} } console.log(json); 

 .as-console {background-color:black !important; color:lime;} 

So, your code should be reworked like this:

var json;

for (var i = 0 ; i <= 5 ; i++)
{ 
    json = {
        LINE1: {
            "MaterialName": resp[i].MaterialName,
            "MaterialId": resp[i].MaterialId,
            "LocationName": resp[i].LocationName,
            "LocationId": resp[i].LocationId,
            "Quantity": resp[i].Quantity,
            "DeliveryLocationName": resp[i].DeliveryLocationName,
            "DeliveryLocationId": resp[i].DeliveryLocationId
        }
    }

    // TODO: Do something with json variable or will be
    // overwrite by next iterations.
}

You can do something like this. Assuming the large JSON you shared here (coming from MongoDB) is present in resp variable.

var resp = [{}];  //This is your large array coming from MongoDB.

function getCustomJsonObject(resp){
    var outputArray = [];
    for(var i=0; i< resp.length; i++){
        var jsonObj = {
             "MaterialName": resp[i].MaterialName,
             "MaterialId": resp[i].MaterialId,
             "LocationName": resp[i].LocationName,
             "LocationId": resp[i].LocationId,
             "Quantity": resp[i].Quantity,
             "DeliveryLocationName": resp[i].DeliveryLocationName,
             "DeliveryLocationId": resp[i].DeliveryLocationId
        }
        outputArray.push(jsonObj);     
    }
    return outputArray;
}

var customObj = getCustomJsonObject(resp);
