I am having two arrays
const selected = [];
const current = [
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
const result = []
I need to compare these two arrays and the result should only have the single entry instead of duplicates. In the above example result should have the following output.
Also items in the selected should be taken into consideration and should be in the beginning of the result
result = [
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
Also when the input is following
const selected = [ {id:5, name: "xyz" }];
const current = [
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
result = [[
{ id: 5, name: "xyz" },
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
Also when the input is following
const selected = [ {id:1, name: "abc" }, {id:4, name: "lmn" }];
const current = [
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
result = [[
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 4, name: "lmn" }
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
Note the comparison should be made using name
field
Code that I tried
const res = [...(selected || [])].filter((s) =>
current.find((c) => s.name === c.name)
);

You could get all items and filter the array by checking the name with a Set
.
const
filterBy = (key, s = new Set) => o => !s.has(o[key]) && s.add(o[key]),
selected = [{ id: 1, name: "abc" }, { id: 1, name: "lmn" }],
current = [{ id: 1, name: "abc" }, { id: 2, name: "def" }],
result = [...selected, ...current].filter(filterBy('name'));
console.log(result);

Loop through selected
, and if there is no object in current
with a name
that matches the name of the object in the current iteration push it into current
.
const selected=[{id:1,name:"abc"},{id:6,name:"def"},{id:4,name:"lmn"}];
const current=[{id:1,name:"abc"},{id:2,name:"def"}];
for (const sel of selected) {
const found = current.find(cur => cur.name === sel.name);
if (!found) current.push(sel);
}
console.log(current);

This is a good use for .reduce
, avoids multiple loops/finds and doesn't need filtering with side-effects.
const selected = [ {id:1, name: "abc" }, {id:4, name: "lmn" }];
const current = [
{ id: 1, name: "abc" },
{ id: 2, name: "def" }
];
const result = Object.values(
[...selected, ...current].reduce((obj, item) => {
obj[item.name] = obj[item.name] || item;
return obj;
}, {})
)
console.log(result);
