How to create a new array of objects based on the values of two existing arrays?-CodePudding

I have a data set like so where there can be many objects in the array:

tableCols = [
    {
        "id": 50883,
        "header": "ABC",
        "operator": "Sum",
        "order": 2
    },
    {
        "id": 50884,
        "header": "Leakage",
        "operator": "Sum",
        "order": 3
    },
     .....
]

And I have another data set like so where there can be many objects in the array:

dataArr = [
    {
        "id": 925095,
        "grid_row_id": 170712,
        "grid_col_id": 50883,
        "data": "10",
        "error_msg": null,
        "locked": 1
    },
    {
        "id": 926137,
        "grid_row_id": 170712,
        "grid_col_id": 50884,
        "data": "34",
        "error_msg": null,
        "locked": 1
    },
    {
        "id": 926137,
        "grid_row_id": 170713,
        "grid_col_id": 50883,
        "data": "22",
        "error_msg": null,
        "locked": 1
    },
    {
        "id": 926137,
        "grid_row_id": 170713,
        "grid_col_id": 50884,
        "data": "100",
        "error_msg": null,
        "locked": 1
    },
    .....
]

Note that every single grid_col_id in the second array exists as an id in the first array.

I want to create another array like so:

formattedData = [
    {
        "ABC": 10,
        "Leakage": 34,
        ....
    },
    {
        "ABC": 22,
        "Leakage": 100,
        ....
    },
    ....
]

Essentially, for every item in dataArr, for all objects with the same grid_row_id, create an object in a new array where we have new key-value pairs where the key is equal to the header in tableCols where grid_col_id = id.

For example, in the dataArr above, we have 4 known objects, with grid_row_ids 170712 and 170713 (note that there could be more). The first object has grid_row_id 50883, which in tableCols with the id 50883 has headed ABC, so a new key is created the key as ABC and the value as 10 (because data = 10 in the dataArr object).

Hence why we have the following in formattedData:

"ABC": 10,

I have something which kind of works but it creates a new object for each item in dataArray instead of filtering through the array and creating a new object for every row:

        let ogGrid = [];
        let formattedData = [];
        let newObj = {};

        dataArr.forEach(row => {
                tableCols.forEach(element => {
                    if(row.grid_col_id === element.id)
                        newObj[element.header] = Number(row.data);
                });
            })
            ogGrid = {...newObj};
            formattedData.push(ogGrid);
        });

How would I be able to achieve the new structure?

You could create a map to translate a column id to a header name, and another map to translate a row id to an (initially empty) object. Then traverse the data to populate those objects with the help of these two maps. Finally extract the objects into an array.

const tableCols = [{"id": 50883,"header": "ABC","operator": "Sum","order": 2},{"id": 50884,"header": "Leakage","operator": "Sum","order": 3},];
const dataArr = [{"id": 925095,"grid_row_id": 170712,"grid_col_id": 50883,"data": "10","error_msg": null,"locked": 1},{"id": 926137,"grid_row_id": 170712,"grid_col_id": 50884,"data": "34","error_msg": null,"locked": 1},{"id": 926137,"grid_row_id": 170713,"grid_col_id": 50883,"data": "22","error_msg": null,"locked": 1},{"id": 926137,"grid_row_id": 170713,"grid_col_id": 50884,"data": "100","error_msg": null,"locked": 1},];

const headerMap = new Map(tableCols.map(({id, header}) => [id, header]));
const rowMap = new Map(dataArr.map(({grid_row_id}) => [grid_row_id, {}]));
for (const {grid_row_id, grid_col_id, data} of dataArr) {
    rowMap.get(grid_row_id)[headerMap.get(grid_col_id)] =  data;
}
const data = [...rowMap.values()];

console.log(data)

let ogGrid = {};
let formattedData = [];
let newObj = {};

dataArr.forEach(row => {
  if (!ogGrid[row.grid_row_id]) {
    ogGrid[row.grid_row_id] = {};
  }

  tableCols.forEach(element => {
    if (row.grid_col_id === element.id) {
      ogGrid[row.grid_row_id][element.header] = Number(row.data);
    }
  });
});

for (let id in ogGrid) {
  formattedData.push(ogGrid[id]);
}

console.log(formattedData);
