Json data modify into new key value pair JavaScript

Question

I have a json data that I want to reformat into new key-value pairs. I am using following javascript code to format my json data.

const input = {
    "file1": {
        "function1": {
            "calls": {
                "405:4": {
                "file": "file1",
                "function": "function2"
                },
                "406:4": {
                    "file": "file1",
                    "function": "function3"
                }
            }
        },
        "function2": {
            "calls": {
                "397:7": {
                    "file": "file2",
                    "function": "function1"
                }
            }
        },
        "function3": {
            "calls": null
        },
        "function4": {
            "calls": null
        }
    },
    "file2": {
        "function5": {
            "calls": {
                "43:4": {
                    "file": "file2",
                    "function": "function5"
                }
            }
        },
        "function6": {
            "calls": {
                "32:4": {
                    "file": "file1",
                    "function": "function1"
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
function transformData(data) {
    let  res = [];
    let calls = [];
    Object.entries(data).map(([fileName, fileObject]) => {
        Object.entries(fileObject).map(([functionName, functionObject]) => {
            Object.entries(functionObject).map(([functionKey, functionValue]) => {
                if(functionKey === "calls") {
                    Object.entries(functionValue).map(([callKey, callObject]) => {
                        calls = [...calls, callObject['file']+"."+callObject['function']]
                    });
                } 
            });
            res = [...res,{"name": fileName+"."+functionName, "import": calls}]  
        });
    });
    return res;
}
const sanitize = (obj) => {
    return JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(obj, (key, value) => {
        return (value === null ? undefined : value);
    }));
};
const data = sanitize(input)
const result = transformData(data);
console.log(result)

My expected json data is following:

[
  {
    "name": "file1.function1",
    "imports": [
      "file1.function2",
      "file1.function3"
    ]
  },
  {
    "name": "file1.function2",
    "imports": [
      "file2.function1"
    ]
  },
  {
    "name": "file1.function3",
    "imports": []
  },
  {
    "name": "file1.function4",
    "imports": []
  },
  {
    "name": "file2.function5",
    "imports": [
      "file2.function5"
    ]
  },
  {
    "name": "file2.function6",
    "imports": [
      "file1.function1"
    ]
  }
]

My output is not correct. Though its giving right amount of main array with name and imports keys but the import array is wrong.

Can someone please help me. I think i'm not returning it in the correct way.

The mistake that you're doing is, you're assigning the same calls array to import each time and not clearing the past elements on subsequent iterations. Replace with this code for obtaining the expected outcome.

function transformData(data) {
    let res = [];
    Object.entries(data).map(([fileName, fileObject]) => {
        Object.entries(fileObject).map(([functionName, functionObject]) => {
            let calls = []; // Notice this line. I'm creating new array for every iteration. Another way is to clear the array before proceeding.
            Object.entries(functionObject).map(([functionKey, functionValue]) => {
                if(functionKey === "calls") {
                    Object.entries(functionValue).map(([callKey, callObject]) => {
                        calls = [...calls, callObject['file']+"."+callObject['function']]
                    });
                } 
            });
            res = [...res,{"name": fileName+"."+functionName, "import": calls}]  
        });
    });
    return res;
}
