Change JSON output with javascript

Question

Im working with an API using Node. With node I'm able to get a list of data. When i Use Stringify i get something like this :

{ totalNumEntries: 700,
  entries:
   [ { data:
        [ { key: 'KEYWORD_TEXT',
            value:
             { attributes: { 'xsi:type': 'StringAttribute' },
               'Attribute.Type': 'StringAttribute',
               value: 'red herring 9e23f4ad' } },
          { key: 'SEARCH_VOLUME',
            value:
             { attributes: { 'xsi:type': 'LongAttribute' },
               'Attribute.Type': 'LongAttribute',
               value: '4574730' } } ] },
     { data:
        [ { key: 'KEYWORD_TEXT',
            value:
             { attributes: { 'xsi:type': 'StringAttribute' },
               'Attribute.Type': 'StringAttribute',
               value: 'nike 656e95f0' } },
          { key: 'SEARCH_VOLUME',
            value:
             { attributes: { 'xsi:type': 'LongAttribute' },
               'Attribute.Type': 'LongAttribute',
               value: '3442386' } } ] },
     { data:
        [ { key: 'KEYWORD_TEXT',
            value:
             { attributes: { 'xsi:type': 'StringAttribute' },
               'Attribute.Type': 'StringAttribute',
               value: 'red herring 2bb32682' } },
          { key: 'SEARCH_VOLUME',
            value:
             { attributes: { 'xsi:type': 'LongAttribute' },
               'Attribute.Type': 'LongAttribute',
               value: '2641524' } } ] },
     { data:
        [ { key: 'KEYWORD_TEXT',
            value:
             { attributes: { 'xsi:type': 'StringAttribute' },
               'Attribute.Type': 'StringAttribute',
               value: 'nike d4b589f6' } },
          { key: 'SEARCH_VOLUME',
            value:
             { attributes: { 'xsi:type': 'LongAttribute' },
               'Attribute.Type': 'LongAttribute',
               value: '4778937' } } ] },

My problem now is. I want Key-value pairs of data for example :

[
  {
    "KEYWORD_TEXT": "red herring 9e23f4ad",
    "SEARCH_VOLUME": 4574730
  },
  {
    "KEYWORD_TEXT": "nike 656e95f0",
    "SEARCH_VOLUME": 3442386
  },
  etc...
]

In my code I have tried the next :

targetingIdeaService.get({selector: selector}, function (error, result) {
var resultaten = result;
console.log(resultaten.entries[0]);

})

The output of this was close to what i wanted but not exactly. Here is what I'm getting:

{ data:
   [ { key: 'KEYWORD_TEXT', value: [Object] },
     { key: 'COMPETITION', value: [Object] },
     { key: 'SEARCH_VOLUME', value: [Object] } ] }

As you can see the key is beign shown but the value is still an object. I would like the above data to be the same except i want the value to be shown too.

Answer 1

You can use [].map() to create new array with the results. Here is an example...

var newResult = resultaten.entries.map(function(entry) {
    var result = {};

    entry.data.forEach(function (datum) {
        result[datum.key] = datum.value.value;
    })

    return result;
})

Your value is there, I think console.log just show [Object] instend of the detail value for netsted objects.

 var ls = { "totalNumEntries": 700, "entries": [{ "data": [{ "key": "KEYWORD_TEXT", "value": { "attributes": { "xsi:type": "StringAttribute" }, "Attribute.Type": "StringAttribute", "value": "red herring 9e23f4ad" } }, { "key": "SEARCH_VOLUME", "value": { "attributes": { "xsi:type": "LongAttribute" }, "Attribute.Type": "LongAttribute", "value": "4574730" } }] }, { "data": [{ "key": "KEYWORD_TEXT", "value": { "attributes": { "xsi:type": "StringAttribute" }, "Attribute.Type": "StringAttribute", "value": "nike 656e95f0" } }, { "key": "SEARCH_VOLUME", "value": { "attributes": { "xsi:type": "LongAttribute" }, "Attribute.Type": "LongAttribute", "value": "3442386" } }] }] }; // stringified var newList = []; for (var i = 0; i < ls.entries.length; i++) { var obj = ls.entries[i]; var newObj = {}; for (var j = 0; j < obj.data.length; j++) { var contnt = obj.data[j]; newObj[contnt.key] = contnt.value.value; } newList.push(newObj); } console.log(newList) 

I have taken a part of json data from your question. please check wether you are looking for this.
