映射地图<String, List<> &gt; 带列表&lt;&gt;

Question

I need some help mapping a Map<String, List<Fee>> with a List<FeeRequest> .

Fee object looks like this:

private String feeCode;

FeeRequest objects looks like this:

private String feeCode;
private String debtorAccount;

So what I need is to map:

String debtorAccount(from map) -> debtorAccount(from List)

feeCode(from List from map) -> feeCode(from List)

I want to try not to use foreach , but instead learn to properly use .stream().map() features.

What I've managed to do:

Map<String, List<Fee>> feeAccounts is parsed from another method.

 List<FeeRequest> feeRequests = feeAccounts.entrySet().stream().map(feeAcc -> {
        FeeRequest request = new FeeRequest();
        request.setDebtorAccount(feeAcc.getKey());
        request.setFeeCode(...);
        return request;
    }).collect(Collectors.toList());

I think that my approach is bad, but I don't know how to make it work. I tried looking at some examples but they're too basic. So I would be glad to get any help. Thanks!

If each Fee instance should generate a FeeRequest instance, you need flatMap :

List<FeeRequest> feeRequests =
    feeAccounts.entrySet()
               .stream()
               .flatMap(feeAcc -> feeAcc.getValue()
                                        .stream()
                                        .map(f -> {
                                            FeeRequest request = new FeeRequest();
                                            request.setDebtorAccount(feeAcc.getKey());
                                            request.setFeeCode(f.getCode());
                                            return request;
                                        }))
               .collect(Collectors.toList());

If FeeRequest has a constructor with two arguments you can use something like this:

feeAccounts.entrySet().stream()
        .flatMap(
                accountEntry -> accountEntry.getValue().stream().map(
                        fee -> new FeeRequest(
                                accountEntry.getKey(),
                                fee.getFeeCode()
                        )
                )
        ).collect(toList());
