I'm going to write a function in Javascript. It will process by passing a key.
// generate by coffeescript
var get_key, obj;
obj = [
{ name: 'Ape', sales: 100, location: 'US' },
{ name: 'Bob', sales: 200, location: 'UK' },
{ name: 'Cat', sales: 120, location: 'Hell' }
];
// What I want to do: (of cause it is wrong)
get_key = function(obj, key) {
var item, value_arr, _i, _len;
value_arr = [];
for (_i = 0, _len = obj.length; _i < _len; _i++) {
item = obj[_i];
value_arr.push(obj.key);
}
return value_arr; // return array containing all values of key in object
};
alert(get_key(obj, 'sales')); // expect return 100,200,120
Problem is: how to pass the 'key'?
ps I even don't know any keyword to search in this matter (bad English). So I can't find any answer in StackOverflow and Google. Please give some tips to ask correctly.
Many thanks!!
var get_key, obj;
obj = [
{ name: 'Ape', sales: 100, location: 'US' },
{ name: 'Bob', sales: 200, location: 'UK' },
{ name: 'Cat', sales: 120, location: 'Hell' }
];
// What I want to do: (of cause it is wrong)
get_key = function(obj, key) {
var item, value_arr, _i, _len;
value_arr = [];
for (_i = 0, _len = obj.length; _i < _len; _i++) {
item = obj[_i];
if (key in item){
value_arr.push(item[key]);
}
}
return value_arr; // return array containing all values of key in object
};
alert(get_key(obj, 'sales')); // expect return 100,200,120
item
is the object with the key you're looking for so change value_arr.push(obj.key);
to value_arr.push(item[key]);
, you have to use []
notation to access an objects property via a variable, also added a check to see if the item has a property key
before adding to the array.
function get_key(arr, key) {
return arr.map(function(el) {
return el[key];
});
}
If need to support old browsers, you need to add the map function to Array ( check here ).
var obj = [
{
name: 'Ape',
sales: 100,
location: 'US'},
{
name: 'Bob',
sales: 200,
location: 'UK'},
{
name: 'Cat',
sales: 120,
location: 'Hell'}
];
get_key = function(obj, key) {
var result = [];
for (var i = 0; i < obj.length; i++) {
/*
* Here, obj[i] gives the object e.g:
* { name: 'Ape', sales: 100, location: 'US' }...
*
* and obj[i][key] give the value of corresponding key e.g:
* 100, 200... (suppose for: sales)
*/
result.push(obj[i][key]);
}
return result;
};
alert(get_key(obj, 'sales').join(','));
just change the line
item = obj[_i];
value_arr.push(obj.key);// this line
to
value_arr.push(item[key]);
