How can I store objects in an array so that I can call a method for each object in a loop.
How I would like the result to be:
[[obj1, obj2],[obj3, obj4]].foreach((firstObj, secondObj) => {
firstobj.search();
secondObj.search()
})
And the result will be as follows:
Iteration 1: obj1.search(); obj2.search();
iteration 2: obj3.search(); obj4.search();
Any advice is welcome
Use array destructuring in the argument list to "unpack" the pairs to 2 free variables:
[[obj1, obj2], [obj3, obj4]].forEach(([o1, o2]) => {
o1.search();
o2.search();
});
This is equivalent to doing (and indeed, this is what Babel compiles the above to)
[
[obj1, obj2],
[obj3, obj4]
].forEach((_ref) => {
let [o1, o2] = _ref;
o1.search();
o2.search();
});
You can unpack your array into two separate variables in the callback arguments like this.
[[obj1, obj2],[obj3, obj4]].forEach([firstObj, secondOb] => {
firstobj.search();
secondObj.search()
})
Or if you don't know the size of each nested array you can use flat to flatten your array into one then execute your function in a forEach.
[[obj1, obj2],[obj3, obj4]].flat().forEach(obj => {
obj.search();
})
