This is my script, which I manged to put together using code on this link :
Setting up a variable length two-dimensional array
stringWithSeper = "Panther^Pink,Green,Yellow|Dog^Hot,Top";
var blocks = stringWithSeper.split("|");
for (var i = 0; i < blocks.length; i++) {
temp = blocks[i].split("^");
result[temp[0]] = temp[1].split(",");
}
I'm confused. What's the structure of "result" ? Is it
result = {"Panther":{"Pink","Green","Yellow"}, "Dog":{"Hot","Top"}}
If not, what is it? I've been breaking my head over this for the past 3 days.
Here is your answer: alert(JSON.stringify(result))
Result: {"Panther":["Pink","Green","Yellow"],"Dog":["Hot","Top"]}

I'm using the DuracellTomi datalayer plugin to push cart data from woocommerce to a GTM model to handle some tracking.
The DuracellTomi plugin pushes content to the transactionProducts[] array in the following format:
transactionProducts: Array[1]
0 : Object
category:""
currency:"USD"
id:8
name:"Test"
price:100
quantity:"1"
sku:8
I'd like to loop through this array and unstack it into three separate arrays, pricelist, skulist, and quantitylist. Currently I anticipate doing so as some variation on
//Get Product Information
if(stack = {{transactionProducts}}){
for(i = 0; i < stack.length; i++) {
if(stack.i.sku){
skulisttemp.i = stack.i.sku;
}
if(stack.i.price){
pricelisttemp.i = stack.i.price;
}
if(stack.i.sku){
quantitylisttemp.i = stack.i.quantity;
}
}
{{skulist}} = skulisttemp;
{{pricelist}} = pricelisttemp;
{{quantitylist}} = quantitylisttemp;
}
Obviously this is not going to work because of how the tag referencing is set up, but I'm wondering if anyone has dealt with this and knows what the best way to index through these arrays might be. (For those who don't know, the square bracket array call doesn't work with GTM variables and instead the . format is used instead.)
You would need to create 3 variable type custom javascript function that picks your required value from dataLayer and returns it in an array.
Something like
function(){
var products = {{transactionProducts}};
var skuArray = [];
for(i = 0; i < products.length; i++) {
if(products[i].sku){
skuArray.push(products[i].sku)
}
}
return skuArray
}
hope this helped you :)
I have the following array and a loop fetching the keys (https://jsfiddle.net/ytm04L53/)
var i;
var feeds = ["test_user_201508_20150826080829.txt:12345","test_user_list20150826:666","test_list_Summary20150826.txt:321"];
for (i = 0; i < feeds.length; i++) {
var feed = feeds[i];
alert(feed.match(/\d+$/));
}
The array will always contain different number of keys, What I would like to do is either use these keys as variables and assign the value after the : semicolon as its value or just create a new set of variables and assign the values found on these keys to them.
How can I achieve this? so that I can then perform some sort of comparison
if (test_user > 5000) {dosomething}
update
Thanks for the answers, how can I also create a set of variables and assign the array values to them? For instance something like the following.
valCount(feeds.split(","));
function valCount(t) {
if(t[0].match(/test_user_.*/))
var testUser = t[0].match(/\d+$/);
}
Obviously there is the possibility that sometimes there will only be 1 key in the array and some times 2 or 3, so t[0] won't always be test_user_
I need to somehow pass the array to a function and perform some sort of matching, if array key starts with test_user_ then grab the value and assign it to a define variable.
Thanks guys for all your help!
You can't (reasonably) create variables with dynamic names at runtime. (It is technically possible.)
Instead, you can create object properties:
var feeds = ["test_user_201508_20150826080829.txt:12345","test_user_list20150826:666","test_list_Summary20150826.txt:321"];
var obj = {};
feeds.forEach(function(entry) {
var parts = entry.split(":"); // Splits the string on the :
obj[parts[0]] = parts[1]; // Creates the property
});
Now, obj["test_user_201508_20150826080829.txt"] has the value "12345".
Live Example:
var feeds = ["test_user_201508_20150826080829.txt:12345","test_user_list20150826:666","test_list_Summary20150826.txt:321"];
var obj = {};
feeds.forEach(function(entry) {
var parts = entry.split(":");
obj[parts[0]] = parts[1];
});
snippet.log(obj["test_user_201508_20150826080829.txt"]);
<!-- Script provides the `snippet` object, see http://meta.stackexchange.com/a/242144/134069 -->
<script src="http://tjcrowder.github.io/simple-snippets-console/snippet.js"></script>
You can do it like this, using the split function:
var i;
var feeds = ["test_user_201508_20150826080829.txt:12345","test_user_list20150826:666","test_list_Summary20150826.txt:321"];
for (i = 0; i < feeds.length; i++) {
var feed = feeds[i];
console.log(feed.split(/[:]/));
}
This outputs:
["test_user_201508_20150826080829.txt", "12345"]
["test_user_list20150826", "666"]
["test_list_Summary20150826.txt", "321"]
Use the split method
var feeds = ["test_user_201508_20150826080829.txt:12345","test_user_list20150826:666","test_list_Summary20150826.txt:321"];
feedMap = {}
for (i = 0; i < feeds.length; i++) {
var temp = feeds[i].split(':');
feedMap[temp[0]] = temp[1];
}
Yields:
{
"test_user_201508_20150826080829.txt":"12345",
"test_user_list20150826":"666",
"test_list_Summary20150826.txt":"321"
}
And can be accessed like:
feedMap["test_user_201508_20150826080829.txt"]
Here is a codepen
it is not very good idea but if you really need to create variables on-the-run here's the code:
for (i = 0; i < feeds.length; i++)
{
var feed = feeds[i];
window[feed.substring(0, feed.indexOf(":"))] = feed.match(/\d+$/);
}
alert(test_user_201508_20150826080829)
Of course you cannot have any variable-name-string containing banned signs (like '.')

I have an multi-dimension array that i'm iterating through. Is there a way to put the contents of the array into a new multi-dimension array creating a new MDA? For example, the following code puts all indices of the original array into the new candies array if there's a match. Currently i'm doing
candies.push([product[0],product[1], etc...]);
I'm just trying to see if there's a faster/cleaner way to get that in there.
I tried:
candies.push(product);
but that didn't work. Here's the code i'm currently using
var sel = 'candy';
var candies = [];
for(var i = 1; i < products.length; i++) {
var product = products[i];
for(var j = 0; j < product.length; j++) {
if(sel==product[11]){
candies.push([product[0],product[1],product[2],product[3],product[4],product[5],product[6],product[7],product[8],product[9],product[10],product[11],product[12]]);
}
break;
}
}
A cleaner way of writing below line:
candies.push([product[0],product[1],product[2],product[3],product[4],product[5],product[6],product[7],product[8],product[9],product[10],product[11],product[12]]);
is:
candies.push(product.slice(0,13)]);
Sample example JSFiddle is here.
Best of luck.

Note: I am not asking how to append data to an array!
Rather my problem is that I want to append items to each and every element of an array.
Here is a part of my code:
dataset=[];
var xpoints=["Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May"];
var ypoints=[10,20,30,40,50];
for (var i = 0; i < xpoints.length; i++) {
dataset.push({
x : xpoints[i],
y : parseFloat(ypoints[i])
});
}
The array so far would be as below:
dataset[0] - {x:Jan,y:10}
dataset[1] - {x:Feb,y:20}
dataset[2] - {x:Mar,y:30}
dataset[3] - {x:Apr,y:40}
dataset[4] - {x:May,y:50}
So far there is no problem...
But if now i have another array (Suppose that it is of the same length), I want to append the new array's elements into my existing array such that my output would be as follows:
var zpoints=["a","b","c","d","e"];
/*
Do something
*/
Required Output:
dataset[0] - {x:Jan,y:10,z:a}
dataset[1] - {x:Feb,y:20,z:b}
dataset[2] - {x:Mar,y:30,z:c}
dataset[3] - {x:Apr,y:40,z:d}
dataset[4] - {x:May,y:50,z:e}
If I do:
for (var i = 0; i < dataset.length; i++) {
dataset.push({
z:zpoints[i]
});
}
it would append it as different elements in the dataset array, which is not what I am looking for.
Is the required output achieveable using JavaScript? How?
What if I want to add multiple objects to the dataset array but I do not know the number of objects to be added while compiling?
Suppose that there can be multiples arrays:
z1=["a","b","c","d","e"];
z2=["l","m","n","o","p"];
z3=...
.
.
and so on.. and the number is unknown until runtime.
I want to do something like this:(invalid code)
for(var j=0;j<length;j++) //Length will be known only during runtime
for (var i = 0; i < dataset.length; i++) {
dataset[i].z[j] = zpoints[i]; //z[j] is invalid!!
}
I need to name the objects dynamically somehow. Is there a way to achieve this?
It's rather simple:
for (var i = 0; i < dataset.length; i++) {
dataset[i].z = zpoints[i];
}
A .push call will always append more entries to the array; in this case you want to modify the existing ones.
You need to simply add new property z to existing object:
var l = zpoints.length;
while(l --)
dataset[l].z = zpoints[l];
How to add For loop information to Multi-Dimensional Array?

If I am trying this code get - map undefined. But how to save data something like to this ->
[[Array[10], [Array[10], [Array[10], [Array[10], [Array[10], [Array[10], [Array[10], [Array[10], [Array[10], [Array[10]]
Thanks and sorry for my English language.
It seems in you want to initialize a multi dimensional array. Arrays are dynamic in JavaScript, you don't have to initialize them with a certain length. You could just do:
var map = [];
for(var a = 0; a < 10; a++){
map[a] = [];
}
This gives you an array containing 10 arrays.
Why are you getting undefined?
Because your syntax is way of. What map = [a][b]; does is creating an array with one element a and then accessing the bth element of that array and assign it to map.
So in the last iteration, it does:
map = [9][9];
which is the same as
tmp = [9];
map = tmp[9];
try something like
var map = [];
for(var a = 0; a < 10; a++){
map[a]=[];
for(var b = 0; b < 10; b++) {
map[a].push(b);
}
}
I am not sure what you want to do either but that's the only think I could do with your code ...
