map function for objects instead of arrays

Question

I have an object   myObject      a   1   b   2   c   3     I am looking for a native method  similar to Array prototype map that would be used as follows   newObject   myObject map function  value  label        return value   value          newObject is now    a   1   b   4   c   9     Does JavaScript have such a map function for objects   I want this for Node JS  so I don t care about cross-browser issues

It s pretty easy to write one   Object map   function o  f  ctx        ctx   ctx    this      var result           Object keys o  forEach function k            result k    f call ctx  o k   k  o                return result      with example code    gt  o     a  1  b  2  c  3     gt  r   Object map o  function v  k  o         return v   v         gt  r   a   1  b  4  c  9     NB  this version also allows you to  optionally  set the this context for the callback  just like the Array method   EDIT - changed to remove use of Object prototype  to ensure that it doesn t clash with any existing property named map on the object

I specifically wanted to use the same function that I was using for arrays for a single object  and wanted to keep it simple  This worked for me   var mapped    item  map myMapFunction  pop

How about a one-liner in JS ES10   ES2019   Making use of Object entries   and Object fromEntries    let newObj   Object fromEntries Object entries obj  map   k  v     gt   k  v   v      The same thing written as a function  function objMap obj  func      return Object fromEntries Object entries obj  map   k  v     gt   k  func v            To square each value you can call it like this  let mappedObj   objMap obj   x    gt  x   x    This function uses recursion to square nested objects as well  function objMap obj  func      return Object fromEntries      Object entries obj  map   k  v     gt          k  v     Object v    objMap v  func    func v                    To square each value you can call it like this  let mappedObj   objMap obj   x    gt  x   x    With ES7   ES2016 you cant  use Objects fromEntries  but you can achieve the same using Object assign in combination with spread operators and computed key names syntax  let newObj   Object assign    Object entries obj  map   k  v     gt     k   v   v       ES6   ES2015 Doesn t allow Object entires  but you could use Object keys instead  let newObj   Object assign    Object keys obj  map k   gt     k   obj k    obj k        ES6 also introduced for   of loops  which allow a more imperative style  let newObj       for  let  k  v  of Object entries obj       newObj k    v   v       array reduce   Instead of Object fromEntries and Object assign you can also use reduce for this  let newObj   Object entries obj  reduce  p   k  v     gt        p   k   v   v             Inherited properties and the prototype chain  In some rare situation you may need to map a class-like object which holds properties of an inherited object on its prototype-chain  In such cases Object keys   and Object entries   won t work  because these functions do not include the prototype chain  If you need to map inherited properties  you can use for  key in myObj         Here is an example of such situation  const obj1      a   1   b   2   c   3  const obj2   Object create obj1       One of multiple ways to inherit an object in JS      Here you see how the properties of obj1 sit on the  prototype  of obj2 console log obj2      Prints  obj2   proto        a   1   b   2   c   3   console log Object keys obj2        Prints  an empty Array  console log Object entries obj2        Prints  an empty Array   for  let key in obj2      console log key                   Prints   a    b    c     However  please do me a favor and avoid inheritance   -

My response is largely based off the highest rated response here and hopefully everyone understands  have the same explanation on my GitHub  too   This is why his impementation with map works   Object keys images  map  key    gt  images key     url           images key                      The purpose of the function is to take an object and modify the original contents of the object using a method available to all objects  objects and arrays alike  without returning an array  Almost everything within JS is an object  and for that reason elements further down the pipeline of inheritance can potentially technically use those available to those up the line  and the reverse it appears    The reason that this works is due to the  map functions returning an array REQUIRING that you provide an explicit or implicit RETURN of an array instead of simply modifying an existing object  You essentially trick the program into thinking the object is an array by using Object keys which will allow you to use the map function with its acting on the values the individual keys are associated with  I actually accidentally returned arrays but fixed it   As long as there isn t a return in the normal sense  there will be no array created with the original object stil intact and modified as programmed   This particular program takes an object called images and takes the values of its keys and appends url tags for use within another function  Original is this   var images      snow   https   www trbimg com img-5aa059f5 turbine bs-md-weather-20180305    sunny   http   www cubaweather org images weather-photos large Sunny-morning-east-    Matanzas-city- Cuba-20170131-1080 jpg    rain   https   i pinimg com originals 23 d8  ab 23d8ab1eebc72a123cebc80ce32b43d8 jpg          and modified is this   var images      snow  url  https   www trbimg com img-5aa059f5 turbine bs-md-weather-20180305         sunny  url  http   www cubaweather org images weather-photos large Sunny-morning-    east-Matanzas-city- Cuba-20170131-1080 jpg     rain  url  https   i pinimg com originals 23 d8  ab 23d8ab1eebc72a123cebc80ce32b43d8 jpg         The object s original structure is left intact allowing for normal property access as long as there isn t a return  Do NOT have it return an array like normal and everything will be fine  The goal is REASSIGNING the original values  images key   to what is wanted and not anything else  As far as I know  in order to prevent array output there HAS to be REASSIGNMENT of images key  and no implicit or explicit request to return an array  variable assignment does this and was glitching back and forth for me    EDIT   Going to address his other method regarding new object creation to avoid modifying original object  and reassignment appears to still be necessary in order to avoid accidentally creating an array as output   These functions use arrow syntax and are if you simply want to create a new object for future use   const mapper    obj  mapFn    gt  Object keys obj  reduce  result  key    gt                    result key    mapFn obj  key                   return result                       var newImages   mapper images   value    gt  value     The way these functions work is like so    mapFn takes the function to be added later  in this case  value     value  and simply returns whatever is stored there as a value for that key  or multiplied by two if you change the return value like he did  in mapFn obj  key     and then redefines the original value associated with the key in result key    mapFn obj  key    and returns the operation performed on result  the accumulator located in the brackets initiated at the end of the  reduce function    All of this is being performed on the chosen object and STILL there CANNOT be an implicit request for a returned array and only works when reassigning values as far as I can tell  This requires some mental gymnastics but reduces the lines of code needed as can be seen above  Output is exactly the same as can be seen below    snow   https   www trbimg com img-5aa059f5 turbine bs-    md-weather-20180305   sunny   http   www cubaweather org images weather- photos l   morning-east-Matanzas-city-Cuba-20170131-1080 jpg   rain    https   i pinimg com originals 23 d8  ab 23d8ab1eebc72a123cebc80ce32b43d8 jpg     Keep in mind this worked with NON-NUMBERS  You CAN duplicate ANY object by SIMPLY RETURNING THE VALUE in the mapFN function

The map function does not exist on the Object prototype however you can emulate it like so  var myMap   function   obj  callback          var result            for   var key in obj             if   Object prototype hasOwnProperty call  obj  key                   if   typeof callback      function                      result  key     callback call  obj  obj  key    key  obj                                       return result       var myObject      a   1   b   2   c   3     var newObject   myMap  myObject  function   value  key         return value   value

JavaScript just got the new Object fromEntries method   Example   x000D   x000D  function mapObject  obj  fn    x000D    return Object fromEntries  x000D      Object x000D         entries obj  x000D         map fn  x000D      x000D    x000D   x000D  const myObject     a  1  b  2  c  3   x000D  const myNewObject   mapObject myObject    key  value     gt    key  value   value    x000D  console log myNewObject  x000D   x000D   x000D    Explanation  The code above converts the Object into an nested Array     lt key gt   lt value gt          wich you can map over  Object fromEntries converts the Array back to an Object   The cool thing about this pattern  is that you can now easily take object keys into account while mapping   Documentation   Object fromEntries   Object entries     Browser Support  Object fromEntries is currently only supported by these browsers engines  nevertheless there are polyfills available  e g  babel polyfill

you can use map method and forEach on arrays but if you want to use it on Object then you can use it with twist like below   Using Javascript  ES6   var obj      a   2   b   4   c   6       Object entries obj  map  v   gt  obj v 0      v 1     console log obj     it will log as  a  4  b  16  c  36   var obj2      a   4   b   8   c   10    Object entries obj2  forEach  v   gt  obj2 v 0      v 1     console log obj2     it will log as  a  16  b  64  c  100    Using jQuery  var ob      a   2   b   4   c   6      map ob  function  val  key       ob key     val      console log ob    it will log as  a  4  b  16  c  36    Or you can use other loops also like   each method as below example     each ob function  key  value      ob key     value      console log ob    it will also log as  a  4  b  16  c  36

I came upon this as a first-item in a Google search trying to learn to do this  and thought I would share for other folsk finding this recently the solution I found  which uses the npm package immutable   I think its interesting to share because immutable uses the OP s EXACT situation in their own documentation - the following is not my own code but pulled from the current immutable-js documentation   const   Seq     require  immutable   const myObject     a  1  b  2  c  3   Seq myObject  map x   gt  x   x  toObject         a  1  b  4  c  9      Not that Seq has other properties   Seq describes a lazy operation  allowing them to efficiently chain use of all the higher-order collection methods  such as map and filter  by not creating intermediate collections   and that some other immutable-js data structures might also do the job quite efficiently   Anyone using this method will of course have to npm install immutable and might want to read the docs   https   facebook github io immutable-js

A different take on it is to use a custom json stringify function that can also work on deep objects  This might be useful if you intend to post it to the server anyway as json   x000D   x000D  const obj      a   1   b   2  x    c   3    x000D  const json   JSON stringify obj   k  v    gt  typeof v      number    v   v   v  x000D   x000D  console log json  x000D  console log  back to json    JSON parse json   x000D   x000D   x000D

The accepted answer has two drawbacks    It misuses Array prototype reduce  because reducing means to change the structure of a composite type  which doesn t happen in this case  It is not particularly reusable     An ES6 ES2015 functional approach  Please note that all functions are defined in curried form    x000D   x000D     small  reusable auxiliary functions x000D   x000D  const keys   o   gt  Object keys o   x000D   x000D  const assign       o    gt  Object assign        o   x000D   x000D  const map   f   gt  xs   gt  xs map x   gt  f x    x000D   x000D  const mul   y   gt  x   gt  x   y  x000D   x000D  const sqr   x   gt  mul x   x   x000D   x000D   x000D     the actual map function x000D   x000D  const omap   f   gt  o   gt    x000D    o   assign o      A x000D    map x   gt  o x    f o x     keys o       B x000D    return o  x000D     x000D   x000D   x000D     mock data x000D   x000D  const o     a  1   b  2   c  3   x000D   x000D   x000D     and run x000D   x000D  console log omap sqr   o    x000D  console log omap mul 10    o    x000D   x000D   x000D     In line A o is reassigned  Since Javascript passes reference values by sharing  a shallow copy of o is generated  We are now able to mutate o within omap without mutating o in the parent scope  In line B map s return value is ignored  because map performs a mutation of o  Since this side effect remains within omap and isn t visible in the parent scope  it is totally acceptable    This is not the fastest solution  but a declarative and reusable one  Here is the same implementation as a one-line  succinct but less readable   const omap   f   gt  o   gt   o   assign o   map x   gt  o x    f o x     keys o    o       Addendum - why are objects not iterable by default   ES2015 specified the iterator and iterable protocols  But objects are still not iterable and thus not mappable  The reason is the mixing of data and program level

I came here looking to find and answer for mapping an object to an array and got this page as a result  In case you came here looking for the same answer I was  here is how you can map and object to an array    You can use map to return a new array from the object like so   var newObject   Object keys myObject  map function key       return myObject key

This is really annoying  and everyone in the JS community knows it  There should be this functionality  const obj1    a 4  b 7   const obj2   Object map obj1   k v    gt  v   5    console log obj1       a 4  b 7  console log obj2       a 9  b 12   here is the na  ve implementation  Object map   function obj  fn  ctx        const ret            for let k of Object keys obj            ret k    fn call ctx    null  k  obj k                 return ret      it is super annoying to have to implement this yourself all the time    If you want something a little more sophisticated  that doesn t interfere with the Object class  try this  let map   function  obj  fn  ctx      return Object keys obj  reduce  a  b    gt        a b    fn call ctx    null  b  obj b        return a                 const x   map  a  2  b  4    k v    gt        return v 2       but it is safe to add this map function to Object  just don t add to Object prototype  Object map          fairly safe Object prototype map        not ok

EDIT  The canonical way using newer JavaScript features is -  const identity   x   gt    x  const omap    f   identity  o         gt    Object fromEntries      Object entries o  map    k  v      gt          k  f v                Where o is some object and f is your mapping function  Or we could say  given a function from a - gt  b  and an object with values of type a  produce an object with values of type b  As a pseudo type signature -     omap    a - gt  b    a    - gt    b       The original answer was written to demonstrate a powerful combinator  mapReduce which allows us to think of our transformation in a different way   m  the mapping function     gives you a chance to transform the incoming element before hellip  r  the reducing function     this function combines the accumulator with the result of the mapped element   Intuitively  mapReduce creates a new reducer we can plug directly into Array prototype reduce  But more importantly  we can implement our object functor implementation omap plainly by utilizing the object monoid  Object assign and       x000D   x000D  const identity   x   gt  x000D    x x000D     x000D  const mapReduce    m  r    gt  x000D     a  x    gt  r  a  m  x   x000D   x000D  const omap    f   identity  o         gt  x000D    Object x000D       keys  o  x000D       reduce x000D          mapReduce x000D              k   gt      k   f  o k      x000D              Object assign x000D              x000D             x000D          x000D             x000D  const square   x   gt  x000D    x   x x000D     x000D  const data   x000D      a   1  b   2  c   3   x000D     x000D  console  log  omap  square  data   x000D       a   1  b   4  c   9   x000D   x000D   x000D    Notice the only part of the program we actually had to write is the mapping implementation itself       k   gt      k   f  o k        Which says  given a known object o and some key k  construct an object and whose computed property k is the result of calling f on the key s value  o k    We get a glimpse of mapReduce s sequencing potential if we first abstract oreduce     oreduce    string   a - gt  string   b  b    a    - gt    b   const oreduce    f   identity  r   null  o         gt    Object      keys  o       reduce         mapReduce             k   gt    k  o k                f                     r             omap    a - gt  b   a   - gt   b  const omap    f   identity  o         gt    oreduce       mapReduce              k  v      gt                  k   f  v               Object assign                          o         Everything works the same  but omap can be defined at a higher-level now  Of course the new Object entries makes this look silly  but the exercise is still important to the learner   You won t see the full potential of mapReduce here  but I share this answer because it s interesting to see just how many places it can be applied  If you re interested in how it is derived and other ways it could be useful  please see this answer

Object Mapper in TypeScript  I like the examples that use Object fromEntries such as this one  but still  they are not very easy to use  The answers that use Object keys and then look up the key are actually doing multiple look-ups that may not be necessary   I wished there was an Object map function  but we can create our own and call it objectMap with the ability to modify both key and value   Usage  JavaScript    const myObject      a   1   b   2   c   3        keep the key and modify the value let obj   objectMap myObject  val   gt  val   2      obj     a  2  b  4  c  6        modify both key and value obj   objectMap myObject      val   gt  val   2           key   gt   key   key  toUpperCase        obj     AA   2   BB   4   CC   6      Code  TypeScript    interface Dictionary lt T gt         key  string   T     function objectMap lt TValue  TResult gt       obj  Dictionary lt TValue gt       valSelector   val  TValue  obj  Dictionary lt TValue gt     gt  TResult      keySelector    key  string  obj  Dictionary lt TValue gt     gt  string      ctx   Dictionary lt TValue gt          const ret      as Dictionary lt TResult gt       for  const key of Object keys obj             const retKey   keySelector               keySelector call ctx    null  key  obj                key          const retVal   valSelector call ctx    null  obj key   obj           ret retKey    retVal            return ret      If you are not using TypeScript then copy the above code in TypeScript Playground to get the JavaScript code   Also  the reason I put keySelector after valSelector in the parameter list  is because it is optional     Some credit go to alexander-mills  answer

If anyone was looking for a simple solution that maps an object to a new object or to an array      Maps an object to a new object by applying a function to each key value pair     Takes the object to map and a function from  key  value  to mapped value  const mapObject    obj  fn    gt        const newObj           Object keys obj  forEach k   gt    newObj k    fn k  obj k            return newObj         Maps an object to a new array by applying a function to each key value pair     Takes the object to map and a function from  key  value  to mapped value  const mapObjectToArray    obj  fn    gt        Object keys obj  map k   gt  fn k  obj k         This may not work for all objects or all mapping functions  but it works for plain shallow objects and straightforward mapping functions which is all I needed
