How to add key in a nested array of Objects based on another object

Question

I have an array of Objects named results and have the Object which key is the key value of editKeyValues object and value needs to be add in edit key. Below is the Input

var result =  [{
  name  :  'database',
  checked : true,
  key :  1,
  schemas  : [
    {
      name  : "schema2",
      checked : true,
      key : 6,
      tables : [
        {
          name  : "table2",
          checked : true,
          key : 7,
          columns : [
            {
              name  : "column1",
              checked : true,
              key : 8,
            }
          ]
        },
      ]
    },

  ]
}]

var editKeyValues = { 8 : "column4", 6 : "schema4"}

Output that i want in a below format

    var result =  [{
      name  :  'database',
      checked : true,
      key :  1,
      schemas  : [
{
  name  : "schema2",
  checked : true,
  key : 6,
  edit : "schema4"
  tables : [
    {
      name  : "table2",
      checked : true,
      key : 7,
      columns : [
        {
          name  : "column1",
          checked : true,
          key : 8,
          edit : "column4"     // value of key 8 from editkeyValues array
        }
      ]
    },
  ]
},]}]

Provide me a best approach because there is large amount of data in results Object... Is recursion a good idea??? Help me to find out the best approach.

You could take a Map and iterate the objects and seach for nested array.

This approach uses a short circuit if no more nodes are eligible for update.

 function update(array, nodes) { return array.some(o => { var key = o.key.toString(); if (nodes.has(key)) { o.edit = nodes.get(key); nodes.delete(key); if (!nodes.size) return true; } return update(Object.values(o).find(Array.isArray) || [], nodes); }); } var data = [{ name: 'database', checked: true, key: 1, schemas: [{ name: "schema1", checked: true, key: 2, tables: [{ name: "table1", checked: true, key: 3, columns: [{ name: "column2", checked: true, key: 5 }] }] }, { name: "schema2", checked: true, key: 6, tables: [{ name: "table2", checked: true, key: 7, columns: [{ name: "column1", checked: true, key: 8 }] }] }] }], keyValues = { 8: 'column4', 6: 'schema4' }; update(data, new Map(Object.entries(keyValues))); console.log(data);

 let data = [{ name: 'database', checked: true, key: 1, schemas: [ { name: "schema2", checked: true, key: 6, tables: [ { name: "table2", checked: true, key: 7, columns: [ { name: "column1", checked: true, key: 8, } ] }, ] }, ] }]; let schemas = data.flatMap(d => d.schemas); let tables = schemas.flatMap(s => s.tables); let columns = tables.flatMap(t => t.columns); let flatData = [data, schemas, tables, columns].flat(); let editKeyValues = {8: "column4", 6: "schema4"}; Object.entries(editKeyValues).forEach(([key, newName]) => flatData.find(obj => obj.key === parseInt(key)).edit = newName); console.log(data);
