my first time posting a question here, so please let me know if I'm missing any information that is needed. Updated to include desired output.
I'm working on a google app script (basically javascript) and am trying to pull objects from an array of objects and create a new array of objects. I'm using the google base functions for getRowData (these can be found at : https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/sheets) to create my initial array of objects. This gives me a row of data similar (A JIRA export if anyone is wondering, with information cut):
{summary=Internal - Fix PuppetFile Jenkins Jobs, progress=1.0, issueType=Story, resolution=Done, timeSpent=3600.0, key=XXXXX-646, watchers=0.0, remainingEstimate=0.0, numberOfComments=1.0, status=Resolved, assignee=XXXXXXXX}
When I run my function:
for (var i = 0; i < issueList.length; i++){
rankList[i] = [issueList[i].summary,issueList[i].storyPoints,issueList[i].epicLink,issueList[i].fixVersions];
}
I get:
[Internal - Fix PuppetFile Jenkins Jobs, 3.0, null, null]
But what I want is:
{summary=Internal - Fix PuppetFile Jenkins Jobs, storyPoints=1.0, epicLink=StoryName, fixVersions=Done}
I'm not getting the key for the value, and I don't understand how the objects are constructed quite well enough to get it to transfer over. I looked at some examples of manipulating the key/value pairs but when I tried it on my own I just got a bunch of undefined. Thank you for any help you can provide.
What you want is probably something like this:
rankList = [];
for (var i = 0; i < issueList.length; i++) {
issue = issueList[i];
rankList.push({
summary: issue.summary,
storyPoints: issue.progress,
epicLink: issue.IDONTKNOW,
fixVersions: issue.resolution
});
}
I don't know what field goes in epicLink, since it wasn't obvious from your example. And I was just guessing about the other fields. But this is the general structure, you just need to make all the correct correspondences.
Use jquery each instead it's much easier to get the keys and value at the same time:
var myarray = [];
$.each(issueList,function(key,value){
console.log(key);
console.log(value);
value.key = key;
myarray.push(value);
});
console.log(myarray);

I have a previously created script that is doing API calls to get various info. Using json fetch. Its used to look up(GET) properties of users, groups, etc.
Here is how it prints. console.log(myArray):
[{user={conversion_id=smitht, ship_id=14.0, ship=Mountain , id=989, name=Smith, Todd, id=8745335.0, system_id=796663, login_id=todd.smith#domain.com,, created_at=3055-08-10, //keeps continuing for all users in this account
If I wanted to search the array and return only "name". Is there a better way to accomplish than this? This will print out just the names
for (let i = 0; i < myArray.length; i++){
console.log(myArray[i]['user']['name'])
I'm trying to learn what's possible and how to interact. Any other options to search through array? Most examples have sample arrays written out since mine comes from a response its been difficult to follow those examples.
use find https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/find
function findByLoginId(loginId) {
const result = myArray.find(user => user.login_id === loginId);
return result?.name;
}
Check to make sure that the fetched data is valid JSON. You should be able to use JSON.parse on the returned data.
I Have been trying to figure out how can I make this array dynamically and send it to my api. The structure of array is given below.
Photos[image][0] = "a.png"
Photos[image][1] = "b.png"
Photos[image][2] = "c.png"
How can I do this in controller I am stuck every time I apply some solution I get this error Cannot set property '0' of undefined angular array. I think I still dont know what kind of array is this. so far I have implement this solution but God knows why is this headache.
I have three files in this object
$scope.files = [file,file,file].
and i need to put them in the array in the required format I mentioned above. This is my code.
for (var i = 0; i < $scope.file.length; i++) {
Photos[image] = {};
Photos[image][i]= $scope.file[i];
}
console.log(Photos);
Please elaborate my mistake.
I would check out the documentation for angular foreach.
Angular.forEach
This will allow you to iterate over each file in $scope.files. Each file can then be added to your Photos array as you see fit.
I have a variable called uids
var uids = [];
Then I write some value to it property
uids[16778923] = "3fd6335d-b0e4-4d77-b304-d30c651ed509"
But before it
if (!uids[user.id]) {
uids[user.id] = generateKey(user);
}
This thing behaves ok. If I try to get the value of it property
uids[currentUser.id]
It will give me a value of this property. If I try to call some methods like
Object.keys(uids);
It will give me, what I expected. And here the mystery comes...
uids;
RAM rest in piece. See the node eating ram
I am very confused now. What's wrong?
This is because you are creating a huge array and node will reserve memory for it - who knows what comes. I'd say that's a scenario where you would use a Map (or a plain object, but Map feels better here.
var uids = new Map();
var key = 456464564564654;
if (! uids.has(key)) {
uids.set(key, generateKey(user))
}
You are creating an empty array (length is zero), then you assign some value to an arbitrary index. This will make the array grow as big as the index and assign the value to that index. Look at this example using node.js REPL:
> var a = []
undefined
> a[5] = "something"
'something'
> a
[ , , , , , 'something' ]
> a.length

Instead of creating an array, you could create a Map() or an common javascript object (singleton). Javascript objects behave like Maps but only Strings can be used as keys. If you assign a Number to be key, javascript will convert it to String automatically.
Personally, I would go with objects because they perform better. Instantiating an object takes longer than instantiating a Map (and it doesn't seem like you need to create several groups of "uids"), but once done, adding new keys and retrieving values from any key in faster when using common objects. At least that's how things go in my node.js v6.7.0 on ubuntu 14.04 but you could try for yourself. And it would also make the least alteration to your code.
var uids = {} // common/ordinary empty javascript object instead of array.
if (!uids[user.id]) { // getting value from one key works the same.
uids[user.id] = generateKey(user) // assignment works the same.
}
////
uids[16778923] = "3fd6335d-b0e4-4d77-b304-d30c651ed509" // key will be "16778923".
uids[16778923] // getting value for key "16778923" can be done using 16778923 instead of "16778923".
////
uids[currentUser.id] // still returning values like this.
Object.keys(uids) // still returning an array of keys like this. but they are all Strings.
A while ago I posted a THIS question, regarding interaction between lua.vm.js and javascript.
Now I have a slightly different problem:
Lets assume that I have the following code in the REPL
model = {}
model['test1'] = 1
model['test3'] = 2
model['test4'] = 3
model['test5'] = 4
model['test6'] = 5
local window = js.global
window.model = model
Because I'm using lua.vm.js, I now that from javascript I can get all the values by doing
window.model.get('test1')
window.model.get('test2')
window.model.get('test3')
But the problem with that is that I have to know beforehand that the entries at the table are "test1", "test2", etc.
Is there a way in javascript(or maybe by adding some more Lua code) that I can iterate all over the table without knowing all the entries?
Thanks in advance!
I think the easiest way to get the list of keys in model would be to use Lua directly.
From what I can see the lua.vm.js table object does not support iteration, but you can do that from JavaScript:
my_keys = L.execute('local r = {}; for k in pairs(model) do r[#r+1] = k end; return unpack(r)')
Then you can loop like this:
for (var i in my_keys) {
console.log(my_keys[i], window.model.get(my_keys[i]));
}
My question is the following, in an array:
var array = new Array();
array['abc'] = 'value1';
array['def'] = 'value2';
How do I get the associative key of an array if I have its index number? Let's say I want associative key of arr[0]'s associative key ( => 'abc'), or associative key of arr[1] '=> 'def'). How is this possible in jQuery?
Let's be clear, I am not looking for the value and I do not need to use $.each(). I just need to link 0 to 'abc' and 1 => 'def' etc... Unfortunately something like arr[0].assoc_key() doesn't seem to exist T_T
Thanks a bunch.
All right so the solution is pretty simple, you need to create an object which associates indeces with keys as well as keys with values. Here is a JSBin that works. Please note that to add an element, you need a custom function (addElement in this case) to be able to have both indeces and keys associated at the right places. This is a rough draft to give you an idea of how it can be done!
JSBin
If you have any question or if that wasn't exactly what you expected, simply edit your question and I'll have another glance at it. It HAS to be a custom made object if you want the behavior you asked for.
Javascript doesn't have a native Dictionary type, you would have to write it. – T McKeown
It isn't possible and jQuery doesn't come into the picture at all. If you use an array as a dictionary like that, you are doing something wrong. – Jon
rethink the way you are doing it. Maybe try array[0] = {key: 'abc', value: 'value1'} – Geezer68
#Geezer68, objects do not support multidimentional data, the array I'm working on is 3 levels deep (I know I didn't says so in my original post, but I didn't think it was relevant).
Anyway, thank you guys, it answers the question! I will rethink it then ;-)
EDIT: I guess I'll just add a level:
var array = new Array();
array[] = 'abc';
array[0] = 'value1'
I don't know an other than using a for ... in. So here how i do it and hope you get a better answer (because i want to know aswell!).
var array = new Array();
array['abc'] = 'value1';
array['def'] = 'value2';
var listKeys = [];
for(x in array) listKeys.push(x);
console.log(listKeys); // ['abc', 'def']
but using [string] on an array object is adding property to the object, not the array. So it may be better to initialise it like that :
var array = {};
You might learn more information on this technique in this question and some restriction on why you should not rely on that.
