push values to array with each in jquery

Question

I want to push the options from a dropdown to the nested array "data".

var gnames = { data: [], list: { sort: { enabled: true } } };
$("#dropdown-group option.lgroup").each(function(){
  gnames.data.push($(this).val());
});
$("#save-group").easyAutocomplete(gnames);

Why does it not work?

post code on fiddle, that we can identify what the actually problem — Chandrashekhar Komati

@chandukomati better to recommend a snippet within SO than a fiddle as the fiddle site may go down in future. — fdomn-m

You'll need to include (some of) the HTML for the select - are you sure each of your options has class=lgroup ? Or does the select have that class and that's your problem? We also don't know that your select id=dropdown-group (or the parent div could also have that id) — fdomn-m

var result = {
  data: []
};
$('button').on('click', function() {
  $('#select').find('option').each(function() {
    result.data.push($(this).val());
  })
  console.log(result);
});

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

<select id="select">
  <option value="1">1</option>
  <option value="2">2</option>
  <option value="3">3</option>
  <option value="4">4</option>
  <option value="5">5</option>
</select>
<button>Set</button>

My code can work.
