Being able to remove duplicate keys from an array of objects

I have a question about how I can delete the existing elements, for example, in my case "Tallas" is repeated, could you please help me? Thank you very much to those who are willing to help me to solve this problem
const data =
[ { atributos: { Tallas: [{ id: 0, name: 'XS' }, { id: 1, name: 'S' }] }}
, { atributos: { Calzado: [{ id: 0, name: '10' }, { id: 1, name: '9.5' }] }}
, { atributos: { Tallas: [{ id: 0, name: 'XS' }] }}
]
The idea is to have this json format with the last "Tallas" since it is the last one that I added through my dynamic form.
const expected =
[{ atributos: { Calzado: [{ id: 0, name: '10' }, { id: 1, name: '9.5' }] }}
, { atributos: { Tallas: [{ id: 0, name: 'XS' }] }}
]
How do I do this is there a way to do it, I've tried with filter plus the findindex but I can't get to eliminate the repetition of the json res= new.filter((arr, index, self) => index === self.findIndex( (t) => (t.attributes === arr.attributes )))

To unique the array of objects, we can use the Javascript Set module, if the array has complex nested objects, we can stringify each object before creating new Set data. this below function will unique the array of complex objects.
function unique_array(array = []) {
const newSetData = new Set(array.map((e) => JSON.stringify(e)));
return Array.from(newSetData).map((e) => JSON.parse(e));
}

this is a function that takes an array and return the same array but delete every duplicated item
function removeDuplicates(arr) {
return arr.filter((item,
index) => arr.indexOf(item) === index);
}
I didn't understant the part written in spanish so I hope this is what you are looking for

This is a solution specific to your question. this is not a generic solution.
const data = [
{
atributos: {
Tallas: [
{ id: 0, name: "XS" },
{ id: 1, name: "S" },
],
},
},
{
atributos: {
Calzado: [
{ id: 0, name: "10" },
{ id: 1, name: "9.5" },
],
},
},
{
atributos: {
Tallas: [
{ id: 0, name: "XS" },
{ id: 1, name: "S" },
],
},
},
];
function uniqueArray(array) {
const resultObject = array.reduce((acc, eachValue) => {
let keys = Object.keys(eachValue.atributos);
keys.forEach((eachKey) => {
if (!acc[eachKey]) {
acc[eachKey] = [];
}
let list = eachValue["atributos"][eachKey].map(
(each) => each.id + "-" + each.name
);
acc[eachKey].push(...list);
});
return acc;
}, {});
const resultArray = Object.keys(resultObject).reduce((acc, each) => {
let setData = Array.from(new Set(resultObject[each]));
acc.push({
atributos: {
[each]: setData.map((e) => {
return { id: e.split("-")[0], name: e.split("-")[1] };
}),
},
});
return acc;
}, []);
return resultArray;
}
const result = uniqueArray(data)
console.log("result ", JSON.stringify(result, null, 2));

Filter out array using another array of objects

I am having two arrays
const selected = [];
const current = [
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
const result = []
I need to compare these two arrays and the result should only have the single entry instead of duplicates. In the above example result should have the following output.
Also items in the selected should be taken into consideration and should be in the beginning of the result
result = [
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
Also when the input is following
const selected = [ {id:5, name: "xyz" }];
const current = [
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
result = [[
{ id: 5, name: "xyz" },
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
Also when the input is following
const selected = [ {id:1, name: "abc" }, {id:4, name: "lmn" }];
const current = [
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
result = [[
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 4, name: "lmn" }
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
Note the comparison should be made using name field
Code that I tried
const res = [...(selected || [])].filter((s) =>
current.find((c) => s.name === c.name)
);

You could get all items and filter the array by checking the name with a Set.
const
filterBy = (key, s = new Set) => o => !s.has(o[key]) && s.add(o[key]),
selected = [{ id: 1, name: "abc" }, { id: 1, name: "lmn" }],
current = [{ id: 1, name: "abc" }, { id: 2, name: "def" }],
result = [...selected, ...current].filter(filterBy('name'));
console.log(result);
.as-console-wrapper { max-height: 100% !important; top: 0; }

Loop through selected, and if there is no object in current with a name that matches the name of the object in the current iteration push it into current.
const selected=[{id:1,name:"abc"},{id:6,name:"def"},{id:4,name:"lmn"}];
const current=[{id:1,name:"abc"},{id:2,name:"def"}];
for (const sel of selected) {
const found = current.find(cur => cur.name === sel.name);
if (!found) current.push(sel);
}
console.log(current);

This is a good use for .reduce, avoids multiple loops/finds and doesn't need filtering with side-effects.
const selected = [ {id:1, name: "abc" }, {id:4, name: "lmn" }];
const current = [
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
const result = Object.values(
[...selected, ...current].reduce((obj, item) => {
obj[item.name] = obj[item.name] || item;
return obj;
}, {})
)
console.log(result);

nested for loops to get another object-array output

I need to multiply all the "values" inside "obj1" with the "percent' inside obj2 based on the id of each object. What would be the best way to do that? I've tried with for loop and reduce but I wasn't successful. Any help will be appreciated.
const obj1 = [ { id: 1, value: 10 }, { id: 2, value: 10 } ]
const obj2 = {
len: {
id: 1,
nj: "321345",
percent: 0.05,
},
wor: {
id: 2,
nj: "321345",
percent: 0.1,
}
}
outputExpected: [ { id: 1, value: 0.5 }, { id: 2, value: 1 } ]

You can do that by going through and matching the ids. there are some optimizations that can be made if they are sorted however.
const obj1 = [ { id: 1, value: 10 }, { id: 2, value: 10 } ]
const obj2 = {
len: {
id: 1,
nj: "321345",
percent: 0.05,
},
wor: {
id: 2,
nj: "321345",
percent: 0.1,
}
}
const x = Object.keys(obj2).map((key,index)=>{
const { id, value } = obj1.find(({id})=>id===obj2[key].id)
return ({id,value:value*obj2[key].percent})
})
console.log(x)
//outputExpected: [ { id: 1, value: 0.5 }, { id: 2, value: 1 } ]

You can first create a lookup map using Map, then loop over the obj1 using map to get the desired result
const obj1 = [
{ id: 1, value: 10 },
{ id: 2, value: 10 },
];
const obj2 = {
len: {
id: 1,
nj: "321345",
percent: 0.05,
},
wor: {
id: 2,
nj: "321345",
percent: 0.1,
},
};
const map = new Map();
Object.values(obj2).forEach((v) => map.set(v.id, v));
const result = obj1.map((o) => ({ ...o, value: o.value * map.get(o.id).percent }));
console.log(result);

This should work for you but doesnt handle exeptions if the id doesnt exist in both objects.
// First get the values in an array for easier manipulation
const aux = Object.values(obj2)
const output = obj1.map(ob => {
// Find the id in the other array.
const obj2Ob = aux.find(o => o.id === ob.id) // The id must exist in this aproach
return {
id: ob.id,
value: ob.value * obj2Ob.percent
}
})
console.log(output) // [ { id: 1, value: 0.5 }, { id: 2, value: 1 } ]

What is an alternative way to update an array of objects?

I have a array of objects. I want to update an object using id.
I am able to do using the map function. Is there an alternative way or more efficient way to update the array?
Here is my code:
https://stackblitz.com/edit/js-xgfwdw?file=index.js
var id = 3
var obj = {
name: "test"
}
let arr = [{
name: "dd",
id: 1
}, {
name: "dzxcd",
id: 3
}, {
name: "nav",
id: 5
}, {
name: "hhh",
id: 4
}]
function getUpdated(obj, id) {
var item = [...arr];
const t = item.map((i) => {
if(i.id==id){
return {
...obj,
id
}
}else {
return i;
}
})
return t
}
console.log(getUpdated(obj,id))
The expected output is correct but I want to achieve the same functionality using an alternative way.
[{
name: "dd",
id: 1
}, {
name: "test",
id: 3
}, {
name: "nav",
id: 5
}, {
name: "hhh",
id: 4
}]

you are in the correct way, basically the bad thing that you are doing is creating new arrays [...arr], when map already gives you a new array.
other things to use, may be the ternary operator and return directly the result of the map function
check here the improvedGetUpdate:
var id = 3;
var obj = {
name: "test"
};
let arr = [{
name: "dd",
id: 1
}, {
name: "dzxcd",
id: 3
}, {
name: "nav",
id: 5
}, {
name: "hhh",
id: 4
}]
function getUpdated(obj, id) {
var item = [...arr];
const t = item.map((i) => {
if (i.id == id) {
return {
...obj,
id
}
} else {
return i;
}
})
return t
}
improvedGetUpdate = (obj, id) => arr.map(i => {
return i.id !== id ? i : {
...obj,
id
}
})
console.log(getUpdated(obj, id))
console.log(improvedGetUpdate(obj, id))

var id = 3
var obj = {
name: "test"
}
let arr = [{
name: "dd",
id: 1
}, {
name: "dzxcd",
id: 3
}, {
name: "nav",
id: 5
}, {
name: "hhh",
id: 4
}]
const result = arr.map((el) => el.id === id ? {...obj, id} : el)
console.log(result);

Use splice method which can be used to update the array too:
var obj = {
id: 3,
name: "test"
}
let arr = [{
name: "dd",
id: 1
}, {
name: "dzxcd",
id: 3
}, {
name: "nav",
id: 5
}, {
name: "hhh",
id: 4
}]
arr.splice(arr.findIndex(({id}) => id === obj.id), 0, obj);
console.log(arr);

#quirimmo suggested short code.
I suggest fast code.
var id = 3;
var obj = {
id: 3,
name: "test"
}
let arr = [{
name: "dd",
id: 1
}, {
name: "dzxcd",
id: 3
}, {
name: "nav",
id: 5
}, {
name: "hhh",
id: 4
}]
var arr2 = [...arr];
console.time('⏱');
arr.splice(arr.findIndex(({id}) => id === obj.id), 0, obj);
console.timeEnd('⏱');
console.time('⏱');
for (let item of arr2) {
if (item.id === id) {
item.name = obj.name;
break;
}
}
console.timeEnd('⏱');
console.log(arr2);

check the difference between two arrays of objects in javascript [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
How to get the difference between two arrays of objects in JavaScript
(22 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
I need some help. How can I get the array of the difference on this scenario:
var b1 = [
{ id: 0, name: 'john' },
{ id: 1, name: 'mary' },
{ id: 2, name: 'pablo' },
{ id: 3, name: 'escobar' }
];
var b2 = [
{ id: 0, name: 'john' },
{ id: 1, name: 'mary' }
];
I want the array of difference:
// [{ id: 2, name: 'pablo' }, { id: 3, name: 'escobar' }]
How is the most optimized approach?
I´m trying to filter a reduced array.. something on this line:
var Bfiltered = b1.filter(function (x) {
return x.name !== b2.reduce(function (acc, document, index) {
return (document.name === x.name) ? document.name : false
},0)
});
console.log("Bfiltered", Bfiltered);
// returns { id: 0, name: 'john' }, { id: 2, name: 'pablo' }, { id: 3, name: 'escobar' } ]
Thanks,
Robot

.Filter() and .some() functions will do the trick
var b1 = [
{ id: 0, name: 'john' },
{ id: 1, name: 'mary' },
{ id: 2, name: 'pablo' },
{ id: 3, name: 'escobar' }
];
var b2 = [
{ id: 0, name: 'john' },
{ id: 1, name: 'mary' }
];
var res = b1.filter(item1 =>
!b2.some(item2 => (item2.id === item1.id && item2.name === item1.name)))
console.log(res);

You can use filter to filter/loop thru the array and some to check if id exist on array 2
var b1 = [{ id: 0, name: 'john' }, { id: 1, name: 'mary' }, { id: 2, name: 'pablo' }, { id: 3, name: 'escobar' } ];
var b2 = [{ id: 0, name: 'john' }, { id: 1, name: 'mary' }];
var result = b1.filter(o => !b2.some(v => v.id === o.id));
console.log(result);
Above example will work if array 1 is longer. If you dont know which one is longer you can use sort to arrange the array and use reduce and filter.
var b1 = [{ id: 0, name: 'john' }, { id: 1, name: 'mary' }, { id: 2, name: 'pablo' }, { id: 3, name: 'escobar' } ];
var b2 = [{ id: 0, name: 'john' }, { id: 1, name: 'mary' }];
var result = [b1, b2].sort((a,b)=> b.length - a.length)
.reduce((a,b)=>a.filter(o => !b.some(v => v.id === o.id)));
console.log(result);

Another possibility is to use a Map, allowing you to bring down the time complexity to O(max(n,m)) if dealing with a Map-result is fine for you:
function findArrayDifferences(arr1, arr2) {
const map = new Map();
const maxLength = Math.max(arr1.length, arr2.length);
for (let i = 0; i < maxLength; i++) {
if (i < arr1.length) {
const entry = arr1[i];
if (map.has(entry.id)) {
map.delete(entry.id);
} else {
map.set(entry.id, entry);
}
}
if (i < arr2.length) {
const entry = arr2[i];
if (map.has(entry.id)) {
map.delete(entry.id);
} else {
map.set(entry.id, entry);
}
}
}
return map;
}
const arr1 = [{id:0,name:'john'},{id:1,name:'mary'},{id:2,name:'pablo'},{id:3,name:'escobar'}];
const arr2 = [{id:0,name:'john'},{id:1,name:'mary'},{id:99,name:'someone else'}];
const resultAsArray = [...findArrayDifferences(arr1,arr2).values()];
console.log(resultAsArray);
