How to add additional properties while converting array to object in javascript?

Question

I know to convert array to object, we use

var object = Object.assign({}, array);

I get an array from multiple select input. like this

var patterns = array["pattern1", "pattern2", "pattern3"];

Then after using object.assign I get object like this.

patterns = {
  0: pattern1,
  1: pattern2,
  2: pattern3
}

I want to add more properties and values to the object values like this:

   patterns = {
   0:{
      name: pattern1,
      status: 0
   },
   1:{
      name: pattern2,
      status: 0
      }
    }

How can I achieve this?

Patterns is an array made of values received from select [ type = 'multiple' ]. — Mohit Sachdeva

Maybe like this:

var patterns = ["pattern1", "pattern2", "pattern3"];

function parrern_to_objarr(_patterns){
	var out = [];
	for(var key in _patterns){
		var out_obj = {};
		out_obj.name = _patterns[key];
		out_obj.status = 0;
		/* more properties if need... */
		out.push(out_obj);
	}
	return out;
}

console.log(parrern_to_objarr(patterns));
