如何将值从数组中的对象添加到另一个数组中的另一个对象？

Question

I'm trying to add object value from one array into another object in another array

first array structure is:

var array1 = [
    { email: 'user1@example.com', status: 'offline' },
    { email: 'user2@example.com', status: 'online' },
    { email: 'user3@example.com', status: 'idle' }
]


var array2 = [
    { email: 'user1@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },
    { email: 'user1@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },
    { email: 'user1@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },
    { email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
    { email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
    { email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
    { email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
    { email: 'user3@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1.5hr', logedIn: true, },
]

the expected result is to be something like this:

var arrayJoined = [
    { email: 'user1@example.com', status: 'offline', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },
    { email: 'user1@example.com', status: 'offline', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },
    { email: 'user1@example.com', status: 'offline', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },
    { email: 'user2@example.com', status: 'online', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
    { email: 'user2@example.com', status: 'online', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
    { email: 'user2@example.com', status: 'online', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
    { email: 'user2@example.com', status: 'online', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
    { email: 'user3@example.com', status: 'idle', activeTime: '1.5hr', logedIn: true, },
]

Answer 1

You'll want to map over the second array and merge the two objects together, where the emails are the same. Therefore you can use Array.map and Object.assign:

function merge(array1, array2) {
  return array2.map(obj => {
    var matchingObj = array1.find(el => el.email === obj.email)
    return Object.assign({}, obj, matchingObj)
  })
}

Answer 2

You can use Map and map , Map will makes searching values from array1 faster as compared to find

 let array1 = [{ email: 'user1@example.com', status: 'offline' },{ email: 'user2@example.com', status: 'online' },{ email: 'user3@example.com', status: 'idle' }] let array2 = [{ email: 'user1@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },{ email: 'user1@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },{ email: 'user1@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },{ email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },{ email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },{ email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },{ email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },{ email: 'user3@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1.5hr', logedIn: true, }] let maped = new Map([ array1.map(v => [v.email,v]) ]) function merge (array1, array2) { return array2.map(obj => { var matchingObj = maped.get(obj.email) return Object.assign({}, obj, matchingObj) }) } console.log(merge(array1,array2)) 

Answer 3

Try to use foreach and find method:

var array1 = [
   { email: 'user1@example.com', status: 'offline' },
   { email: 'user2@example.com', status: 'online' },
   { email: 'user3@example.com', status: 'idle' }
]


var array2 = [
   { email: 'user1@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },
   { email: 'user1@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },
   { email: 'user1@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1hr', logedIn: true, },
   { email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
   { email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
   { email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
   { email: 'user2@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '2hr', logedIn: false, },
   { email: 'user3@example.com', status: '', activeTime: '1.5hr', logedIn: true, },
];

// short version if status always has value:
array2.forEach(f=>{
    f.status = array1.find(a1 => a1.email == f.email).status;
});

console.log(array2);

If you want to check whether the status has value:

array2.forEach(f=>{
    const emailStatus = array1.find(a1 => a1.email == f.email);
    if (emailStatus && emailStatus.status)
        f.status = emailStatus.status;
});

Answer 4

I'm writing this with the assumption that you're learning Javascript, so keep in mind it's not meant to be a definitive 'best way' answer, but rather to illustrate how you can approach the problem using aspects of the language you likely already know.

It looks like array1 is basically your user database with current status. So you need to iterate through array2 and copy the properties from the corresponding object in array1 .

There are a number of ways to approach this problem. The most naive way would be:

var arrayJoined = [];
for (var i=0; i<array2.length; i++){
    for(var n=0; n<array1.length; n++){
        if (array1[n].email == array2[i].email){
            tempObj = array2[i]; //See warning below
            tempObj.status = array1[n].status;
            arrayJoined.push(tempObj.status)
        }
    }
}

However, there are a number of problems with this:

• It's very difficult to follow the nested for loops, and it's not very efficient.
• You're trying to create a NEW array of NEW objects that represents the union of the objects in the two arrays. This means you have to create a new array AND a new set of objects. This is really inefficient and confusing.
• To that same point, "copying an object" is a tricky subject. The tempObj = array2[i] bit doesn't work as you might think, because it just assigns tempObj a reference to the existing object; that is, making changes to tempObj will affect array2[i] as well.

Instead, let's do some optimizations:

• Create a hash table from array to avoid loops and simplify looking up the primary user object (or just use an Object with emails as keys to begin with).
• Add properties to the objects already in array2

var arr1hash = {};
for (var i=0; i<array1.length; i++){
    arr1hash[array[i].email] = i;
}
// {'user1@example.com': 1, 'user2@example.com: 2, etc.}

for (var n=0; n<array2.length; n++){
    var email = array2[n];
    var index = arr1hash[email];//remember that arr1hash has the 'email' as a key and index in array1 as the value
    array2[i].status = array1[index].status;
}
//Now the objects in array2 will have a completed 'status' key, populated from the first object

This is a lot easier to read an a bit more efficient. If you're stuck with the arrays as the data structure for this information, I don't know how to do much better.

However, if you have control over how these structures are created, you could choose something much more efficient. Instead of an array of objects, you could create an object to serve as a user 'database' and use a common, unique identifier to correlate the user data with data in the log:

var users = {
    '1': {email: 'foo@bar.com', status: 'offline'},//Note the keys are strings, not integers
    '2': {email: 'foo@bar.com', status: 'offline'}
}

var log = [{id: 1, loggedIn: False, ActiveTime: '1hr'}]

//Then you can just do:

for (var i=0; i<log.length; i++){
    log[i].status=users[log[i].id].status
}

This is probably still not a 'real-world' solution, as we would tend to keep all of this information in a database and use a JOIN operation to pull all of this information together.
