I have a function that returns the following:
{ 'random_string': '' }
Where random_string is an id that I do not know until it is returned.
How do I extract the value of random_string in JS? Thank you.

var a = { 'random_string': '' }
console.log(Object.keys(a)[0])

Your variable a has a value of type Object. Take a look at the Object prototype's documentation and see which methods are available to you: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object
You're trying to get your object's first key, and so conveniently you can use Object.keys as follows:
var a = { 'random_string': '' }
// Get array of Object's key values as strings
var aKeys = Object.keys(a);
console.log(aKeys);
// Print first key, in this case you only have one
console.log(aKeys[0]);
But based on your comments, you're going about this wrong.
If your "random_string" property identifier is truly random, you'd want to store the random string as an object property value.
That might look something like this:
// Generate some random string value
var random = Math.random().toString(36).substring(7);
// Create an object with a predefined object property identifier
var data = { 'random_value': random };
// Access the random value using your known property identifier
console.log(data.random_value);

I want to removeItem on localstorage but ı dont use localstorage.removeItem().Because ı want to delete a index in array(Sepet=array)
How can ı do it ?
thx
var array = [
{
'id': 1,
'name':'test1'
},
{
'id': 2,
'name':'test2'
},
{
'id': 3,
'name':'test3'
}
];
console.log(array);
localStorage.setItem('test', JSON.stringify(array));
var selected = 1;
var getArray = JSON.parse(localStorage.getItem('test'))
getArray.splice(selected,1);
localStorage.setItem('test', JSON.stringify(getArray));
console.log(getArray);
To get object from localStorage you need the Helper: localStorage.getItem('objectName');. You will get a string and not a object. To transform this string to a Object you need the function JSON.parse(string). And on this point you can work with the object. If you will delete item by index then remove it with object[index]and if you will remove item by value key like id: 2 then use JS Object function function like spliceto remove this item.
After that you have to stringify the object again to a string with JSON.stringify(object). This string you can store in the lcoalStorage withe the methode: localStorage.set(string)
That is the entire workflow.
localStorage is meant to store String values, so if you want to remove an item at a particular index, bear in mind that you need to convert the stringyfied array into plain JS array, then remove the item with array.slice(), and save the updated array back to localStorage.
You can checkh the Array.slice() documentation

Each ArrayItem contains no. of Property like Id, Name, Description etc
But we want to Fetch ArrayItem with Help of Name Property .
So Please give me code suggestion in Jquery or backbonejs without using for loop.
If you are using BackboneJS, you already have UnderscoreJS installed. Underscore has several methods for searching through a collection. For instance, using _.findWhere(...):
var myArray = [ ... ];
var helpItem = _.findWhere(myArray, { name: 'help' });
This would return the first entry in the array that has a name property equal to 'help'. _.findWhere(...) can match multiple properties too. If you want to find an item with something other than direct equality of properties, you can use _.find(...):
var overTwentyOne = _.find(myArray, function(entry) {
return entry.age > 21;
});
This would return the first entry in the array whose age property was greater than 21.
Note also that most of the list-centric methods in Underscore are automatically mixed into all Backbone.Collection instances. So if you were searching through a Collection, the above findWhere(...) example could be more simply written as:
var helpItem = collection.findWhere({ name: 'help'});
This would return the first Backbone.Model instance from collection that had a property name equal to help.

I'm trying to access a list of Casino Games and their properties from a JSON object in order to get them to display on the website. This is where I am so far.
var x = $.getJSON("http://api.bosurl.net/V1/Progressive.asmx/GetProgressiveGames?format=json&callback=?", ProcessProgressiveGames);
console.log(x);
function ProcessProgressiveGames(progressiveGames) {
console.log(progressiveGames.d.Games[0].GameName);
}
What's there best way to do this. If you check your console, you'll see that var x contains the object with the game data.

This question is unique because it requires accessing unique properties. The answers also provide a multitude of ways to retrieve the data.
DEMO
JS
var Games;
var x = $.getJSON("http://api.bosurl.net/V1/Progressive.asmx/GetProgressiveGames?format=json&callback=?", function (data) {
Games = data.d;
}).done(function () {
document.getElementById('choice').innerHTML=ProcessProgressiveGames(Games);
});
function ProcessProgressiveGames(progressiveGames) {
return progressiveGames.Games[0].GameName;
}
$.getJSON function returns promise and the proper way to handle data returned from this address is to set second argument - function to handle data
$.getJSON("http://api.bosurl.net/V1/Progressive.asmx/GetProgressiveGames?format=json&callback=?", ProcessProgressiveGames);
function ProcessProgressiveGames(progressiveGames) {
// Note that progressiveGames has a property 'd' containing the data we're interested in.
console.log(progressiveGames);
document.getElementById('choice').innerHTML = ProcessProgressiveGames(x);
return progressiveGames.d.Games[0].GameName;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/vz24dtm8/7/
You can try like this
var x = $.getJSON("http://api.bosurl.net/V1/Progressive.asmx/GetProgressiveGames?format=json&callback=?", ProcessProgressiveGames);
http://jsfiddle.net/vz24dtm8/8/
function ProcessProgressiveGames(data) {
// Note that progressiveGames has a property 'd' containing the data we're interested in.
return document.getElementById('choice').innerHTML=data.d.Games[0].GameName;
}
<pre>Use callback function to get the json value and pass the parameter in callback function</pre>

I had a object object array which i used JSON.stringify() on i can now see what's in my array but when i do arr[0] etc it only outputs one letter.
arr = {"hello":"yes","because":"no"}
arr[0] =h
I want it to output the whole of the value not just the first letter
My code
var clientContext = SP.ClientContext.get_current();
var peopleManager = new SP.UserProfiles.PeopleManager(clientContext);
// Get user properties for the target user.
// To get the PersonProperties object for the current user, use the
// getMyProperties method.
MyProperties = peopleManager.getMyProperties();
// Load the PersonProperties object and send the request.
clientContext.load(MyProperties);
clientContext.executeQueryAsync(getMyNewsChoicesSuccess, getMyNewsChoicesFail);
},
getMyNewsChoicesSuccess = function () {
//get the news choice by actually fieldname
var MyChoices = JSON.stringify(MyProperties.get_userProfileProperties().Value);
$('#NBStest').text(MyChoices);
},
You can get the first element from your json string like this
JSON.parse(json_str)[0]
but in the example you have, the first element is "yes" and its index is "hello" , which means you can't get the first element by the index 0 , however you can get it by its property name like this
arr.hello = "yes";
// or
arr['hello'] = "yes";
if you want to get the hello which is the key , you have to use this loop
for (key in arr)
console.log(key);
// it will print 'hello' and then 'because'
Well its not an array anymore, its a string. arr[0] will return the first letter.
If you want to get the objects from it you need to parse it ( try JSON.parse )
JSON.stringify() does exactly what it sounds like. It turns the javascript object into a string. So when you do arr[0] you are getting the first letter in the string. You need to turn it back into a javascript object if you want to get the actual values.

I come across below statement in various JS code where first a function let's say "test" is declared thereafter used as mentioned below:
type: "test"
Please explain what does this statement mean where "test" is a function name.
Sample code below:
var MyFavoritesAjax = Class.create();
MyFavoritesAjax.prototype = Object.extendsObject(AbstractAjaxProcessor, {
ajaxFunction_getFavorites : function() {
var result = this.newItem("result");
result.setAttribute("message", "returning all favorites");
this._addFavorite("color", "blue");
this._addFavorite("beer", "lager");
this._addFavorite("pet", "dog");
},
_addFavorite : function(name, value) {
var favs = this.newItem("favorite");
favs.setAttribute("name", name);
favs.setAttribute("value", value);
},
type : "MyFavoritesAjax"
});
Now that you've shown the rest of the code:
type : "MyFavoritesAjax"
is a property declaration on an object being passed to Object.extendsObject(). It creates a property on that object named "type" and gives it a value of "MyFavoritesAjax".
This is similar to the other properties on that same object ajaxFunction_getFavorites and _addFavorite, though they have function references as their value instead of a string.
Given what you posted, you have a label statement (with the label type) including a simple expression statement consisting of the sole string literal "test". You could (and should) add a semicolon after it. However,
type: "text";
does not make much sense, it neither has any effects when executing nor does the label identify a loop.
Ah, your code example sheds some more light on this. As expected, you have an object literal that is passed to the Object.extendsObject function:
{
type : "MyFavoritesAjax"
}
Here, "type" is the property name and the "MyFavoritesAjax" string the property value. What this function does with it, and what it means in that contexts, should be documented with that function. I don't know it, it's not native.
