Converting JavaScript Array To Array With a Property

Question

i have an array like this coming back response from the server:

[
    "111",
    "1010",
    "111",
    "1010",
    "1010"
]

i want to convert it into a JavaScript JSON like this:

[
 {
    "branch":  "111"

 },
 {
    "branch":  "1010"
 },
 {
    "branch":  "111"
 },
 {
    "branch":  "1010"
 },
 {
    "branch":  "1010"
 }
]

You could map a short hand property.

var array = ["111", "1010", "111", "1010", "1010"],
    result = array.map(branch => ({ branch }));

console.log(result);

You can use map() to create a new array with the results of calling a provided function on every element in the calling array

var arr = [
    "111",
    "1010",
    "111",
    "1010",
    "1010"
]

var res = arr.map(i => ({'branch': i}));
console.log(res);
