Reduce() an object of an element that has already been reduced












4















I was doing some data manipulation, but I made a mistake and got the wrong data structure, so initially my data is: (link to data)



const employees = [{
"EmployeeID": "100A",
"FirstName": "Downs",
"aval": [
{"start": "11-19", "end": "2", "ava": "30", "health": "4"},
{"start": "11-20", "end": "2", "ava": "40", "health": "4"},
{"start": "11-21", "end": "2", "ava": "50", "health": "4"},
{"start": "11-22", "end": "2", "ava": "60", "health": "4"}
]
},
{
"EmployeeID": "100B",
"FirstName": "Mckenzie",
"aval": [
{"start": "11-19", "end": "2", "ava": "1", "health": "4"},
{"start": "11-20", "end": "2", "ava": "2", "health": "4"},
{"start": "11-21", "end": "2", "ava": "3", "health": "4"},
{"start": "11-22", "end": "2", "ava": "4", "health": "4"}
]
},

]


and would like to get it like:



const employees = [
{ "EmployeeID": "100A", "11-19": "30", "11-20": "40", "11-21": "50", "11-22": "60"},
{ "EmployeeID": "100B", "11-19": "1", "11-20": "2", "11-21": "3", "11-22": "4"}
]


I've asked around and this gives me 10 objects instead of two, just need to put those pesky employeeID inside 1 object with all the start values altogether.



const res = employees.reduce((acc, { EmployeeID, aval}) => [
...acc,
...aval.map( ({ start, ava}) => ({ EmployeeID, [start]: ava}) )
], );

          Because your input items and output items are one-to-one, you should use .map on employees instead of .reduce:






          const employees=[{"EmployeeID":"100A","FirstName":"Downs","aval":[{"start":"11-19","end":"2","ava":"30","health":"4"},{"start":"11-20","end":"2","ava":"40","health":"4"},{"start":"11-21","end":"2","ava":"50","health":"4"},{"start":"11-22","end":"2","ava":"60","health":"4"}]},{"EmployeeID":"100B","FirstName":"Mckenzie","aval":[{"start":"11-19","end":"2","ava":"1","health":"4"},{"start":"11-20","end":"2","ava":"2","health":"4"},{"start":"11-21","end":"2","ava":"3","health":"4"},{"start":"11-22","end":"2","ava":"4","health":"4"}]},];

          const res = employees.map(({ EmployeeID, aval }) => (
          Object.assign(
          { EmployeeID },
          ...aval.map(({ start, ava }) => ({ [start]: ava }))
          )
          ));
          console.log(res);





          Or, if you wanted to create fewer discarded intermediate objects, you could reduce the inner array aval instead of .map:






          const employees=[{"EmployeeID":"100A","FirstName":"Downs","aval":[{"start":"11-19","end":"2","ava":"30","health":"4"},{"start":"11-20","end":"2","ava":"40","health":"4"},{"start":"11-21","end":"2","ava":"50","health":"4"},{"start":"11-22","end":"2","ava":"60","health":"4"}]},{"EmployeeID":"100B","FirstName":"Mckenzie","aval":[{"start":"11-19","end":"2","ava":"1","health":"4"},{"start":"11-20","end":"2","ava":"2","health":"4"},{"start":"11-21","end":"2","ava":"3","health":"4"},{"start":"11-22","end":"2","ava":"4","health":"4"}]},];

          const res = employees.map(({ EmployeeID, aval }) => (
          aval.reduce((a, { start, ava }) => {
          a[start] = ava;
          return a;
          }, { EmployeeID })
          ));

            When to use: When you need to transform an array into another value, such as a primitive, an object, or another array. Only use reduce if neither .map nor .filter are appropriate. How: when reducing into a primitive, usually you can use the sort of snippets given on MDN, eg (a, b) => a + b, just concatenate/add/multiply/etc the accumulator with the next item in the array. But often it's a bit more complicated, like when reducing into an object. The pattern a[prop] = val; return a; is very common. You might search SO for answers by high-rep users containing reduce for examples

But often it's a bit more complicated, like when reducing into an object. The pattern a[prop] = val; return a; is very common. You might search SO for answers by high-rep users containing reduce for examples

          • When you need to transform an array into a value (or multiple values), you can almost always use .reduce if the other transformation methods (forEach excluded) aren't suitable, feel free to hit me up in chat for details

          Because your input items and output items are one-to-one, you should use .map on employees instead of .reduce:






          const employees=[{"EmployeeID":"100A","FirstName":"Downs","aval":[{"start":"11-19","end":"2","ava":"30","health":"4"},{"start":"11-20","end":"2","ava":"40","health":"4"},{"start":"11-21","end":"2","ava":"50","health":"4"},{"start":"11-22","end":"2","ava":"60","health":"4"}]},{"EmployeeID":"100B","FirstName":"Mckenzie","aval":[{"start":"11-19","end":"2","ava":"1","health":"4"},{"start":"11-20","end":"2","ava":"2","health":"4"},{"start":"11-21","end":"2","ava":"3","health":"4"},{"start":"11-22","end":"2","ava":"4","health":"4"}]},];

          const res = employees.map(({ EmployeeID, aval }) => (
          Object.assign(
          { EmployeeID },
          ...aval.map(({ start, ava }) => ({ [start]: ava }))
          )
          ));
          console.log(res);





          Or, if you wanted to create fewer discarded intermediate objects, you could reduce the inner array aval instead of .map:






          const employees=[{"EmployeeID":"100A","FirstName":"Downs","aval":[{"start":"11-19","end":"2","ava":"30","health":"4"},{"start":"11-20","end":"2","ava":"40","health":"4"},{"start":"11-21","end":"2","ava":"50","health":"4"},{"start":"11-22","end":"2","ava":"60","health":"4"}]},{"EmployeeID":"100B","FirstName":"Mckenzie","aval":[{"start":"11-19","end":"2","ava":"1","health":"4"},{"start":"11-20","end":"2","ava":"2","health":"4"},{"start":"11-21","end":"2","ava":"3","health":"4"},{"start":"11-22","end":"2","ava":"4","health":"4"}]},];

          const res = employees.map(({ EmployeeID, aval }) => (
          aval.reduce((a, { start, ava }) => {
          a[start] = ava;
          return a;
          }, { EmployeeID })
          ));
          console.log(res);

            When to use: When you need to transform an array into another value, such as a primitive, an object, or another array. Only use reduce if neither .map nor .filter are appropriate. How: when reducing into a primitive, usually you can use the sort of snippets given on MDN, eg (a, b) => a + b, just concatenate/add/multiply/etc the accumulator with the next item in the array. But often it's a bit more complicated, like when reducing into an object. The pattern a[prop] = val; return a; is very common. You might search SO for answers by high-rep users containing reduce for examples
