Change representation of JSON object to explicit key/value format

Question

I have the following JSON:

{
    "temperature": "22.2",
    "power": "6",
    "current": "156"
}

and I need to convert it to this explicit structure:

{
    "key": "temperature",
    "value": "22.2"
},
{
    "key": "power",
    "value": "6"
},
{
    "key": "current",
    "value": "156"
}

Is there an elegant, simple and quick way to do this?

Best, thx

Answer 1

var newStructure = Object.keys(obj).map(function(key){
    return {'key':key, 'value':obj[key]}
})

Example

 var obj = { "temperature": "22.2", "power": "6", "current": "156" } var arr = Object.keys(obj).map(function(key){return {'key':key,'value':obj[key]}}) console.log(arr) 

Answer 2

 Object.hashToKeyValuePairs = function (hash) { var ret = []; for (var i in hash) ret.push({ key: i, value: hash[i]}); return ret; }; // example document.body.innerHTML = JSON.stringify( Object.hashToKeyValuePairs({ a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 }) );
