How to object property parse to nested array array using javascript?-CodePudding

It receives data from the request body in the following format. Properly I have to insert it into the database but the format is not correct.

{
  name: '123',
  description: 'Dev',
  "item_variants[0]['name']": '23434',
  "item_variants[0]['quantity']": '12334',
  "item_variants[0]['unit_price']": '123123',
}

And how to transform the following format? Everyone's answers help me some ideas. Thank you

{
      name: '123',
      description: 'Dev',
      item_variants: [
         {
            name: '23434',
            quantity: '23434',
            unit_price: '23434',
         }
      ]
}

CodePudding user response：

In express, after getting this form body you have to store this response in any variable and reformate this response after formatting you can save it into the database.

try {
  let inputs = req.body;

  inputs = {
    name: inputs.name,
    description: inputs.description,
    item_variants: [
      {
        name: item_variants[0].name,
        quantity: item_variants[0].quantity,
        unit_price: item_variants[0].unit_price,
      },
    ],
  };

  // NOW you can save this formatted version into the database

  const result = await Product.save(inputs);
} catch (e) {
  console.log(e);
}

In item_variants name, quantity, unit_price you might change digging and getting value.
