For one of my e-commerce application requirement, I have a nested array of the form (Sample):
const data = [
{
"id": 1,
"group": "upper-wear",
"labels": [
{
"type": "shirts",
"quantity": "20",
},
],
popular: true
},
{
"id": 2,
"group": "bottom-wear",
"lables": [
{
"type": "trousers",
"quantity": "31",
},
],
popular: true
},
]
To this array, I need to insert new objects to the array 'labels' if the group value equals 'upper-wear'.
const newDataToInsert = [
{
"type": 'blazers',
"quantity": 19
},
]
This is what I tried so far, considering that for now I only need to insert to single label (i.e. 'upper-wear') (in future, there can be multiple labels category 'upper-wear', 'bottom-wear', to be inserted into):
const updatedArray = data.map((datum) => {
if (datum.group === 'upper-wear') {
return {
...datum,
labels: [...datum.labels, ...newDataToInsert]
};
}
});
console.log(updatedArray);
But there seems to be a silly issue that I am missing as the result returns like this:
[
{
id: 1,
group: 'upper-wear',
labels: [ [Object], [Object] ],
popular: true
},
undefined
]
I know there may be better approaches available, but this is what I can think of as the minimum solution for now.
any help to resolve the current or any better solution will be highly appreciated.

Try with this
updatedArray = data.map((d) => {
if (d.group && d.group === 'upper-wear') {
return { ...d, labels: d.labels.concat(newDataToInsert) }
} else {
return d;
}
})
const data = [
{
"id": 1,
"group": "upper-wear",
"labels": [
{
"type": "shirts",
"quantity": "20",
},
],
popular: true
},
{
"id": 2,
"group": "bottom-wear",
"lables": [
{
"type": "trousers",
"quantity": "31",
},
],
popular: true
},
];
const newDataToInsert = [
{
"type": 'blazers',
"quantity": 19
},
];
const updatedArray = data.map((d) => {
if (d.group && d.group === 'upper-wear') {
return { ...d, labels: d.labels.concat(newDataToInsert) }
} else {
return d;
}
});
console.log(updatedArray)
Explaination
Here while mapping the data
, we check for the condition
IF
- If it matches then we will first copy the whole object from the variable
b
return { ...b }
- after that we take another variable with the same name
lables
return { ...d, labels: d.labels.concat(newDataToInsert) }
,As per the JSON default nature the new variable with the same name will hold the latest value - Here in labels we first take a copy of old data and then merge it with
newDataToInsert
arraylabels: d.labels.concat(newDataToInsert)
, It will merge 2 arrays and store them in JSON with the namelabels
Else
- In else we just return the current values
else { return d; }

You don't actually need to iterate with map
over the array. Just find an object in the array and change what you want.
const data=[{id:1,group:"upper-wear",labels:[{type:"shirts",quantity:"20"}],popular:true},{id:2,group:"bottom-wear",lables:[{type:"trousers",quantity:"31"}],popular:true}];
const newDataToInsert=[{type:"blazers",quantity:19}];
data.find(({ group }) => group === 'upper-wear')?.labels.push(...newDataToInsert);
console.log(data);

You're not returning all objects from your map. you're only returning a result when your criteria is met. This is resulting in your undefined objects...
const data = [
{ "id": 1, "group": "upper-wear", "labels": [ { "type": "shirts", "quantity": "20", }, ], popular: true },
{ "id": 2, "group": "bottom-wear", "lables": [ { "type": "trousers", "quantity": "31", }, ], popular: true },
]
const newDataToInsert = [ { "type": 'blazers',"quantity": 19 }, ]
const updatedArray = data.map(datum => {
if (datum.group === 'upper-wear') datum.labels = [...datum.labels, ...newDataToInsert]
return datum
});
console.log(updatedArray);

You can use Array#find
to locate the desired group and then change labels for the group found. There are two options depending on how many items you would like to insert. Use Array#push
to add the desired item; use forEach
for more than one item:
const searchgroup = "upper-wear";
const target = data.find(({group}) => group === searchgroup);
target.labels.push(...newDataToInsert); //For one item to insert
//newDataToInsert.forEach(label => target.labels.push( label )); //For more than one item
const data = [{"id": 1, "group": "upper-wear", "labels": [{"type": "shirts", "quantity": "20"},],popular: true }, {"id": 2, "group": "bottom-wear", "lables": [{"type": "trousers", "quantity": "31", },],popular: true}];
const newDataToInsert = [{"type": 'blazers', "quantity": 19}];
//group to find
const searchgroup = "upper-wear";
//target element in data
const target = data.find(({group}) => group === searchgroup);
//check if group was found
if( target ) {
//if there's only one product in newDataToInsert us this:
//target.labels.push(...newDataToInsert);
//if you have more than one product to be inserted use this; also works for one
newDataToInsert.forEach(label => target.labels.push( label ));
} else {
console.log( `No such group found: ${searchgroup}!` );
}
console.log( data );
