I am trying to remove the empty object {} from the below structure.
data = [{
"total" : "value",
"status" : "statusVal",
"recs" : [{
"total" : "value",
"region" : "name",
"recs" : [{},{
"recs" : [{
"recs" : [{
"value" : "a",
"label" : "fn"
}]
}]
}]
}]
}]
This is my JavaScript code where I process the data and trying to remove the empty object from the result.
var result = json.parse(data);
for(var i=0;i<result.length;i++){
if(result[i].hasOwnProperty("recs")){
var fset = result[i].recs;
for(var j=0;j<fset.length;j++){
if(fset[j].recs === undefined || fset[j].recs === null){
delete fset[j].recs;
}
if(fset[j].hasOwnProperty("recs")){
var sset = fset[i].recs;
for(var k=0;k<sset.length;k++){
var tset = sset[i].recs;
if(sset[k].hasOwnProperty("recs")){
for(var z=0;z<tset.length;z++){
if(tset[z].hasOwnProperty("recs")){
// logic to push
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
I tried checking null and undefined and also with property check bool as false. Since the empty {} is always returning length as 1, that is also ruled out. I am stuck here on processing the removal of empty object.
Above code is removing the entire recs node. Can you help me find what I am missing?
Check the length of the Object.keys()
to see if object is empty or not.
Object.keys(fset[j].recs).length === 0
var data = [{ "total": "value", "status": "statusVal", "recs": [{ "total": "value", "region": "name", "recs": [{}, { "recs": [{ "recs": [{ "value": "a", "label": "fn" }] }] }] }] }] function removeEmpty(ary) { ary.forEach((item, index) => { if (Object.keys(item).length === 0) { ary.splice(index, 1); } else if (item.recs && item.recs.length > 0) removeEmpty(item.recs) }); } removeEmpty(data) console.log(data)
