Angular custom Filter pipe after KeyValue pipe

Question

I'm trying to implement a custom filter after using Angular's inbuilt Key Value pipe

I have an array with values for example

object= [
  { key: "Added_By", value: "Yi" },
  { key: "Assigned_To", value: "-" },
  { key: "Bought_Date", value: 43810 },
  { key: "Brand", value: "Samsung PM863" },
  { key: "Capacity", value: 3.84 },
]

I want to filter based on multiple incoming values but incoming values vary for example

It Could be 1 key/Value

Filter= [{ key: "Added_By", value: "Yi" }]// Return Object

or multiple

Filter= [{ key: "Added_By", value: "Yi" }, { key: "Bought_Date", value: 43810 }] //both matches return object

Filter= [{ key: "Added_By", value: "ABC" }, { key: "Bought_Date", value: 43810 }] //1 match but 1 doesn't return false

I want to return object if all the conditions are met

For a single key/value I tried

  let Key= Filter[0].key
  let Value=Filter[0].value
  let KeyFilter = object.filter(x => x.key === Key)
  if (KeyFilter[0].value.toString().toLowerCase().indexOf(Value.toLowerCase()) !== -1)
            return items

But this approach only works only when 1 object is present in filter array

Answer 1

I've created a function that accepts an array of objects , and an object with key: value pairs .

The keys of objects in the array must match with object keys to work.

I always use it when I need to filter an array based on various conditions.

export const filterArray = (filterData, toBeFiltered) => {
  return toBeFiltered.filter(item => {
    for (const key in filterData) {
      if (item[key] === null || item[key] === undefined) {
        return false;
      } else {
        if (typeof filterData[key] === 'string') {
          if (!(item[key]).toLowerCase().includes((filterData[key].trim()).toLowerCase())) {
            return false;
          }
        } else if (item[key] !== filterData[key]) {
          return false;
        }
      }
    }
    return true;
  });
};

Hope it helps.
