How to Iterate an Array of Objects in JavaScript

If you're venturing into the world of programming, specifically JavaScript and Node.js, you might come across situations where you need to manipulate data structures like arrays of objects. One common task is to convert an array of objects into a dictionary, where keys are the properties you want, and the values are arrays of those property values.

In this guide, we'll go through a practical example that demonstrates how to iterate over an array of objects and create a new object (dictionary) based on specific properties.

Understanding the Problem

Suppose you have the following array of objects:

From this array, we want to create a new dictionary where specific properties (a and c in this case) are the keys, and their values are collected into arrays. The expected output should look something like this:

Now, let’s walk through the steps to achieve this.

The Solution

Step 1: Define Your Variables

Start by defining your array of objects and the properties you want to extract:

Step 2: Iterate Through the Array

Next, you will need to loop through each object in the array. You can do this with a for...of loop. Inside this loop, another loop will help us access each key-value pair of the object:

Step 3: Display the Result

Finally, print out the resulting dictionary to see the transformation:

Conclusion

You have now successfully transformed an array of objects into a structured dictionary based on specified properties. This method utilizes nested loops and conditionals, which might seem daunting at first, but with practice, it becomes intuitive.

By following this approach, you can customize it further to meet your specific needs, whether you are extracting different properties or handling different datasets.

Final Thoughts

This implementation is just one way to approach iterating over an array of objects in JavaScript. The method can be adapted depending on the requirements of your project. Keep experimenting with JavaScript until you feel comfortable with it, and happy coding!
