I'm trying to find an element on a multidimentionnal array usin JAVASCRIPT function, but I get error
This is my array's data:
export const datas = [
{
id: 1,
firstName: 'John',
tables: [
{ ID: 11, title: 'Lorem' },
{ ID: 12, title: 'Ipsum' },
],
},
{
id: 2,
firstName: 'Doe',
tables: [
{
ID: 22,
title: 'Arke',
nodes: [{ name: 'Name1' }, { name: 'Name2' }, { name: 'Name3' }],
},
{ ID: 23, title: 'Korem' },
],
},
{
id: 3,
firstName: 'Brad',
tables: [
{
ID: 30,
title: 'Mern',
nodes: [{ name: 'Name4' }, { name: 'Name5' }, { name: 'Name6' }],
},
{
ID: 31,
title: 'Full',
nodes: [{ name: 'Name7' }, { name: 'Name8' }, { name: 'Name9' }],
},
],
},
];
I've tried a reccursive function but it's not work, this is my code :
export const findById = (arr, id) => {
for (let o of arr) {
if (o.tables.length > 0) {
let a = findById(o.tables.nodes, 'id');
console.log(a);
}
}
};
I want to print the Object with ID 22, the problem is that I don't have the same structure in each dimension, and it still confuse me..
My Input : 22
My output :
{
ID: 22,
title: 'Arke',
nodes: [{ name: 'Name1' }, { name: 'Name2' }, { name: 'Name3' }],
},
Have you an idea how to edit my function to get my input's response ?
Your recursive function wasn't too far off, you need to check if the item as a tables first before recursively calling it again. And then finally just check the ID in the loop.
eg..
const datas=[{id:1,firstName:"John",tables:[{ID:11,title:"Lorem"},{ID:12,title:"Ipsum"}]},{id:2,firstName:"Doe",tables:[{ID:22,title:"Arke",nodes:[{name:"Name1"},{name:"Name2"},{name:"Name3"}]},{ID:23,title:"Korem"}]},{id:3,firstName:"Brad",tables:[{ID:30,title:"Mern",nodes:[{name:"Name4"},{name:"Name5"},{name:"Name6"}]},{ID:31,title:"Full",nodes:[{name:"Name7"},{name:"Name8"},{name:"Name9"}]}]}];
function findById(arr, ID) {
for (const a of arr) {
if (a.tables) {
const r = findById(a.tables, ID);
if (r) return r;
}
if (a.ID === ID) return a;
}
}
console.log(findById(datas, 22));if you just need the nested data you can use flatMap and find
const findById = (arr, id) =>
arr
.flatMap(d => d.tables)
.find(t => t.ID === id)
const datas = [{
id: 1,
firstName: 'John',
tables: [{
ID: 11,
title: 'Lorem'
},
{
ID: 12,
title: 'Ipsum'
},
],
},
{
id: 2,
firstName: 'Doe',
tables: [{
ID: 22,
title: 'Arke',
nodes: [{
name: 'Name1'
}, {
name: 'Name2'
}, {
name: 'Name3'
}],
},
{
ID: 23,
title: 'Korem'
},
],
},
{
id: 3,
firstName: 'Brad',
tables: [{
ID: 30,
title: 'Mern',
nodes: [{
name: 'Name4'
}, {
name: 'Name5'
}, {
name: 'Name6'
}],
},
{
ID: 31,
title: 'Full',
nodes: [{
name: 'Name7'
}, {
name: 'Name8'
}, {
name: 'Name9'
}],
},
],
},
];
console.log(findById(datas, 22))js has amazing array options https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array
the ones which will help you most are probably:
here are some examples
// get the base with id 22
const baseWith22ID = datas.filter(f => f.tables.filter(s => s.id = 22))
// (i guess you want this one) get all elements with id 22
const onlyElementsWith22ID = datas.flatMap(f => f.tables.filter(s => s.id = 22))
