I am trying to remove all the _er and _bx from the array, how can I do it? The way I tried doesn't seem to work. I'd like to see a solution where it removes all after _, and aswell only the letter that I put in for e.g remove all _ with er after.
const nullValue = {
collection: [{
name: "test_er"
},
{
name: "test_bx"
},
{
name: "fred"
},
{
name: "test_er"
}
]
};
const newArr = []
for (let [key, item] of nullValue.collection.entries()) {
item.name.replace(/_er/g, '')
newArr.push(item)
}
console.log(newArr)Is this what you're looking for?
const nullValue = {
collection: [
{
name: 'test_er',
},
{
name: 'test_bx',
},
{
name: 'fred',
},
{
name: 'test_er',
},
],
};
nullValue.collection = [
...nullValue.collection.map(item => ({
name: item.name.replace(/_.*$/, ''),
})),
];
console.log(nullValue);You can also use .split('_')[0] with the map method similar to Dmitry's answer... This gives you the first string of the split array, split at the underscore...
const nullValue = {
collection: [{
name: "test_er"
},
{
name: "test_bx"
},
{
name: "fred"
},
{
name: "test_er"
}
]
};
nullValue.collection = [ ...nullValue.collection.map( names => ({ name: names.name.split('_')[0], })),]
console.log(nullValue)If you want to keep the original array of objects...
const nullValue = {
collection: [{
name: "test_er"
},
{
name: "test_bx"
},
{
name: "fred"
},
{
name: "test_er"
}
]
};
const newArr = { collection :
[ ...nullValue.collection.map( names =>
({ name: names.name.split('_')[0], })),
]}
console.log('newArr = ', newArr)
console.log('nullValue = ', nullValue)const nullValue = {
collection: [
{
name: "test_er"
},
{
name: "test_bx"
},
{
name: "fred"
},
{
name: "test_er"
}
]
};
nullValue.collection = nullValue.collection.map(i => i.name.replace(/_.*$/, ''))
console.log(nullValue)
