Concatenate Multiple Array Of Objects Into One And Use Outside Of Function

I want to concatenate multiple array's into one. My result here is giving multiple array of objects. I want to push all them into a single array. All of them are array's of 5. I wa

Solution 1:

sites.forEach should be sites.map, since while they both iterate over the elements in the array, only Array.prototype.map returns a new modified array. That's only if you want to use this modified array. And you would need to return foo from myFunction with something like

console.log(foo);
return foo;

Then, use Array.prototype.reduce to make it a huge array. Add below sites.foreach(now sites.map)

// makes [[1, 2, 3], [4, 5, 6], [7, 8, 9]] 
// become [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
sites.reduce((finalarray, array) => finalarray.concat(array))

Which just adds all the objects together. finalarray is just the final result, while array is the current element. The reduce method still iterates over all elements.

EDIT: Or you could use sites.flat (taken from @Addis) and assign it to itself or a new variable

// Assigns to itself
sites = sites.map(myFunction).flat()
// Assigns to a new variable
let formattedSites = sites.map(myFunction).flat()

Solution 2:

Use the flat() method to create a new array with all sub-array elements concatenated:

console.log(result.flat())

or

console.log([...result].flat())

let data = [{"site_nm": "gs Universe", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 1, "yo": 1, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "gs Gameplay", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 4, "yo": 3, "wokay": 2}, {"site_nm": "gs Universe Trailers", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 5, "yo": 5, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "TR", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 4, "yo": 4, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "gs", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 5, "yo": 5, "wokay": 2}, {"site_nm": "GB", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 1, "yo": 1, "wokay": 1}, {"site_nm": "cn", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 4, "yo": 4, "wokay": 1}, {"site_nm": "Roadshow", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 1, "yo": 1, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "TV", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 1, "yo": 1, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "ZD", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 2, "yo": 2, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "Carfection", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 1, "yo": 1, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "gs Trailers", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 3, "yo": 3, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "gs News", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 3, "yo": 3, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "gs Mobile", "date": "2019-10-01", "sigh": 1, "yo": 1, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "gs Universe Trailers", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 1, "yo": 1, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "gs Gameplay", "date": "2019-10-04", "sigh": 6, "yo": 6, "wokay": 2}, {"site_nm": "Roadshow", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 2, "yo": 2, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "gs", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 3, "yo": 3, "wokay": 2}, {"site_nm": "TR", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 4, "yo": 3, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "cn Highlights", "date": "2019-10-03", "sigh": 8, "yo": 8, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "gs Universe", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 1, "yo": 1, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "cn en Espa\u00f1ol", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 6, "yo": 6, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "gs Trailers", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 2, "yo": 2, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "ZD", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 4, "yo": 4, "wokay": 1}, {"site_nm": "cn", "date": "2019-10-05", "sigh": 5, "yo": 5, "wokay": 1}, {"site_nm": "TV", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 1, "yo": 1, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "CH", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 1, "yo": 1, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "GB", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 3, "yo": 3, "wokay": 3}, {"site_nm": "DLNow", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 1, "yo": 0, "wokay": 0}, {"site_nm": "gs News", "date": "2019-10-02", "sigh": 2, "yo": 2, "wokay": 0}]

let bigArray = [];

let sites = [...newSet(data.map(({
        site_nm
      }) => site_nm))].sort();


let dates = [...newSet(data.map(({
        date
      }) => date))].sort();

sites.forEach(myFunction);

functionmyFunction(item) {

  var foo = data.filter(function(e) {
          return e.site_nm == item;
        });


        let foo_dates = [...newSet(foo.map(({
          date
        }) => date))].sort();

  for (
        var date = moment(dates[0], "YYYY-MM-DD"); date <= moment(dates[dates.length - 1], "YYYY-MM-DD"); date = date.add(1, 'days')) {

        var dateFormatted = date.format("YYYY-MM-DD");

          if (!foo_dates.includes(dateFormatted)) {
            foo.push({
              "site_nm": item,
              "date": dateFormatted,
              "sigh": "",
              "yo": "",
              "wokay": ""
            });
          }
      }
    bigArray.push(foo);
}

console.log(bigArray.flat());

Here I have added another array (bigArray) to hold all foos and then applied flat().
