Javascript - 从嵌套的 Object 数组中删除 object

Question

I have a nested Object array and I would like to remove an item out of this nested array, but for some reason this does not seem to work with my approach:

Object

export const completeNavigationItemsV2Response = [
    {
        id: 'Erlebniskategorien',
        title: 'Erlebniskategorien',
        uri: '/on/demandware.store/Sites-JSShop-Site/default/SearchJS-Show',
        children: [
            {
                id: 'fliegen-fallen',
                title: 'Fallen & Springen',
                uri: '/fliegen-fallen/fallen-springen,default,sc.html',
                children: [
                    {
                        id: 'fallen-springen',
                        title: 'Fallen & Springen',
                        uri: '/fliegen-fallen/fallen-springen,default,sc.html',
                        children: [],
                    }
                ],
            },
            {
                id: 'Weit-Weg',
                title: 'Reisen & Kurzurlaub',
                uri: '/reisen/Weit-Weg,default,sc.html',
                children: [
                    {
                        id: 'staedtereisen',
                        title: 'Städtereisen',
                        uri: '/reisen/staedtereisen,default,sc.html',
                        children: [],
                    }
                ],
            },
            {
                id: 'motorpower',
                title: 'Motorpower',
                uri: '/geschenke-maenner/motorpower,default,sc.html',
                children: [
                    {
                        id: 'rennwagen',
                        title: 'Rennwagen',
                        uri: '/motorpower/rennwagen,default,sc.html',
                        children: [],
                    }
                ],
            },
            {
                id: '10',
                title: 'Erlebnisse mit Stars',
                uri: '/erlebnisse-mit-stars/l/10',
                children: [
                    {          // <== remove this object with id === 'glossar'
                        id: 'glossar', 
                        title: 'Glossar',
                        uri: '/erlebnisstandorte/glossar,default,pg.html',
                        children: [],
                    },
                ],
            },
        ],
    }
];

Does someone of you would now a handy es6 way how to remove that subObject from the whole object in a somewhat dynamic way like with the .map() or .filter() function?

Answer 1

If you want it for any level in your object, you could do it with a recursive function like so:

 // Object is the same, just minified const completeNavigationItemsV2Response=[{id:"Erlebniskategorien",title:"Erlebniskategorien",uri:"/on/demandware.store/Sites-JSShop-Site/default/SearchJS-Show",children:[{id:"fliegen-fallen",title:"Fallen & Springen",uri:"/fliegen-fallen/fallen-springen,default,sc.html",children:[{id:"fallen-springen",title:"Fallen & Springen",uri:"/fliegen-fallen/fallen-springen,default,sc.html",children:[]}]},{id:"Weit-Weg",title:"Reisen & Kurzurlaub",uri:"/reisen/Weit-Weg,default,sc.html",children:[{id:"staedtereisen",title:"Städtereisen",uri:"/reisen/staedtereisen,default,sc.html",children:[]}]},{id:"motorpower",title:"Motorpower",uri:"/geschenke-maenner/motorpower,default,sc.html",children:[{id:"rennwagen",title:"Rennwagen",uri:"/motorpower/rennwagen,default,sc.html",children:[]}]},{id:"10",title:"Erlebnisse mit Stars",uri:"/erlebnisse-mit-stars/l/10",children:[{id:"glossar",title:"Glossar",uri:"/erlebnisstandorte/glossar,default,pg.html",children:[]}]}]}]; const removeItemWithId = (array, id) => { return array.filter(obj => obj.id.== id) // filter out if the id matches.map(obj => ({ // Do the same for children (if they exist)..,obj: children. obj?children.== undefined, removeItemWithId(obj:children; id); undefined })). }, console;log(removeItemWithId(completeNavigationItemsV2Response, 'glossar'));

Answer 2

Although newer than ES6, if you can support .flatMap() , you can do this recursively by calling .flatMap() on your initial array and then calling it on your children array. If you reach the element which you want to remove, you can return an empty array [] , which will remove the object when concatenated into the resulting array.

 const arr = [{ id: 'Erlebniskategorien', title: 'Erlebniskategorien', uri: '/on/demandware.store/Sites-JSShop-Site/default/SearchJS-Show', children: [{ id: 'fliegen-fallen', title: 'Fallen & Springen', uri: '/fliegen-fallen/fallen-springen,default,sc.html', children: [{ id: 'fallen-springen', title: 'Fallen & Springen', uri: '/fliegen-fallen/fallen-springen,default,sc.html', children: [], }], }, { id: 'Weit-Weg', title: 'Reisen & Kurzurlaub', uri: '/reisen/Weit-Weg,default,sc.html', children: [{ id: 'staedtereisen', title: 'Städtereisen', uri: '/reisen/staedtereisen,default,sc.html', children: [], }], }, { id: 'motorpower', title: 'Motorpower', uri: '/geschenke-maenner/motorpower,default,sc.html', children: [{ id: 'rennwagen', title: 'Rennwagen', uri: '/motorpower/rennwagen,default,sc.html', children: [], }], }, { id: '10', title: 'Erlebnisse mit Stars', uri: '/erlebnisse-mit-stars/l/10', children: [{ id: 'glossar', title: 'Glossar', uri: '/erlebnisstandorte/glossar,default,pg.html', children: [], }, ], }, ], }]; const removeId = "glossar"; const res = arr.flatMap(function fn(o) { return o.id?== removeId. ({..,o: children. o.children:flatMap(fn)}); []; }). console;log(res);
