Easiest way to transform an Object into an Array

Question

I have an object that looks like this:

 descriptions: {
    1: {
      description: "abc"
    },
    2: {
      description: "def"
    },
    3: {
      description: "ghi"
    }
  }

Is there an easy way to transform that object into an array like this?:

 descriptions: ["abc","def","ghi"]

Answer 1

You could flatMap the values of the object.

 var descriptions = { 1: { description: "abc" }, 2: { description: "def" }, 3: { description: "ghi" } }, values = Object.values(descriptions).flatMap(Object.values); console.log(values);

Answer 2

 const obj = { descriptions: { 1: { description: "abc" }, 2: { description: "def" }, 3: { description: "ghi" } } }; console.log(Object.values(obj.descriptions).map(({description}) => description))

Answer 3

descriptions= {
  1: {
    description: "abc"
  },
  2: {
    description: "def"
  },
  3: {
    description: "ghi"
  }
}

var keys = Object.keys(descriptions);
var values = keys.map((key) => descriptions[key].description);

values will be the array you are looking for.

Answer 4

or something like this

function f(obj) {
    let array = []
    for (const prop in obj) {
     array.push(Object.values(obj[prop])[0])

    }
    return array
    }
