I am trying to get an array response from my getTeam() function so I can properly filter my DataTable to show more than one team for the current Player (if they are on more than one team).
DataTables Filter:
$.fn.dataTable.ext.search.push( //creating my own filter function for the table
function(settings, searchData, index, rowData, counter, statusClass) {
var userName = searchData[1]; //created a var to search through the 3rd column (0 index) which contains all of the Monday Dates
var searchTeam = searchData[0];
// Get Datatables API
var api = $.fn.dataTable.Api('#myTable');
if (settings.sTableId === 'myTable' ) {
if(userName === thisUserTitle){
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
if (settings.sTableId === 'certificateTable' ) {
if(currentTeam === searchTeam){
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
);The original snippet that returns just the first team:
var teamData = [{
"Team" : "Team 1",
"Players" :[
"Beerus Dev",
"Goten Dev",
"Trunks Dev",
"Majin Bu Dev"
]
},
{
"Team" : "Team 2",
"Players" : [
"Beerus Dev",
"Shap Dev",
"Krillin Dev"
]
}
];
function getTeam() {
const team = teamData.find(team => team.Players.includes(currentUser));
return team.Team;
}
var currentUser = "Beerus Dev";
var currentTeam = getTeam(currentUser);
console.log(currentTeam);
To get the array response, I have tried using the .filter() as opposed to the .find() but I end up getting an empty array as my response.
var teamData = [{
"Team" : "Team 1",
"Players" :[
"Beerus Dev",
"Goten Dev",
"Trunks Dev",
"Majin Bu Dev"
]
},
{
"Team" : "Team 2",
"Players" : [
"Beerus Dev",
"Shap Dev",
"Krillin Dev"
]
}
];
var currentUser = "Beerus Dev";
const team = teamData.filter(function(team, i){
return teamData[i].Players.includes(currentUser);
})
console.log(team)Simplify this code:
var teamData = [{
"Team" : "Team 1",
"Players" :[
"Beerus Dev",
"Goten Dev",
"Trunks Dev",
"Majin Bu Dev"
]
},
{
"Team" : "Team 2",
"Players" : [
"Beerus Dev",
"Shap Dev",
"Krillin Dev"
]
}
];
var currentUser = "Beerus Dev";
const team = teamData.filter(team => team.Players.includes(currentUser)).map(team => team.Team);
console.log(team)
