I have these results from calling a function in javascript:
(1, 00), (2, 10), (3, 01), (4, 11)
I want to assign that in an array or json format that will result like this:
[{id:1, number: 00},{id:2, number: 10},{id:3, number: 01},{id:4, number: 11}]
Or anything that will result an array lenght of 4
Is that possible? Please help. Thanks :)
Use regex to get the pattern and generate the array based on the matched content.
var data = '(1, 00), (2, 10), (3, 01), (4, 11)';
// regex to match the pattern
var reg = /\((\d+),\s?(\d+)\)/g,
m;
// array for result
var res = [];
// iterate over each match
while (m = reg.exec(data)) {
// generate and push the object
res.push({
id: m[1],
number: m[2]
});
}
console.log(res);Or by splitting the string.
var data = '(1, 00), (2, 10), (3, 01), (4, 11)';
var res = data
// remove the last and first char
.slice(1, -1)
// split the string
.split(/\),\s?\(/)
// iterate over the array to generate result
.map(function(v) {
// split the string
var val = v.split(/,\s?/);
// generate the array element
return {
id: val[0],
number: val[1]
}
})
console.log(res);Beside the other splitting solution, you could use String#replace and replace/add the wanted parts for a valid JSON string and use JSON.parse for parsing the string for an object, you want.
var data = '(1, 00), (2, 10), (3, 01), (4, 11)',
json = data.replace(/\(/g, '{"id":').replace(/,\s?(?=\d)/g, ',"number":"').replace(/\)/g, '"}'),
object = JSON.parse('[' + json + ']');
console.log(object);.as-console-wrapper { max-height: 100% !important; top: 0; }
.split()with a delimiter of),to find each pair. Then split that up with a delimiter of,to find each number in the pair.
