How to sum values in array by specific object key?

Viewed 98

I have an array of js objects which look like this:

var objArr = [
     {"Country": "US", "City": "MyCity1", "2017-07-12": "1", "2017-07-13": "2"},
     {"Country": "US", "City": "MyCity2", "2017-07-12": "2", "2017-07-13": "2"},
     {"Country": "CN", "City": "MyCity1", "2017-07-12": "5", "2017-07-13": "7"},
     {"Country": "CN", "City": "MyCity2", "2017-07-12": "5", "2017-07-13": "7"}
   ]

I wanna create a new array where the country is unique, but also the dates should be summed.

{"Country": "US", "2017-07-12":  "3", "2017-07-13": "4"},
{"Country": "CN", "2017-07-12": "10", "2017-07-13": "14"}
            ^^^^                ^^^^                ^^^^   

I have problems getting my head around it. Do I have to filter first, reduce it somehow, remap it,... I've no idea to start? Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Use Array.reduce, check if an object with the current country exists, if it does, loop through the Object.keys to update the values, if not, push a new one :

EDIT : If you don't want City you can destructure it {City, ...curr}

var objArr = [
  { Country: "US", City: "MyCity1", "2017-07-12": "1", "2017-07-13": "2" },
  { Country: "US", City: "MyCity2", "2017-07-12": "2", "2017-07-13": "2" },
  { Country: "CN", City: "MyCity1", "2017-07-12": "5", "2017-07-13": "7" },
  { Country: "CN", City: "MyCity2", "2017-07-12": "5", "2017-07-13": "7" }
];

var result = objArr.reduce((acc, {City, ...curr}) => {
  const ndx = acc.findIndex(e => e.Country === curr.Country);
  if (ndx > -1) {
    const [country, ...keys] = Object.keys(curr);
    keys.forEach(k => {
      acc[ndx][k] = +acc[ndx][k] + +curr[k];
    });
  } else {
    acc.push(curr);
  }
  return acc;
}, []);

console.log(result);

You can use reduce() to create an object to group elements and then use Object.values

var objArr = [
     {"Country": "US", "City": "MyCity1", "2017-07-12": "1", "2017-07-13": "2"},
     {"Country": "US", "City": "MyCity2", "2017-07-12": "2", "2017-07-13": "2"},
     {"Country": "CN", "City": "MyCity1", "2017-07-12": "5", "2017-07-13": "7"},
     {"Country": "CN", "City": "MyCity2", "2017-07-12": "5", "2017-07-13": "7"}
   ]

let keys = ["2017-07-12", "2017-07-13"];
const res = Object.values(objArr.reduce((ac, a) => {
  if(!ac[a.Country]){
    ac[a.Country] = {Country: a.Country};
  }

  keys.forEach(k => {
    ac[a.Country][k] = (ac[a.Country][k] || 0) + Number(a[k]);
  })
  return ac;
}, {}))
console.log(res)

Use one forEach for array and go over each object date keys using forEach and build the one res object with unique keys as Country and accumulated values. Use Object.values of res to get the array from res object.

Update: Fix to make sure always one type for dates which is number.

var objArr = [
  { Country: "US", City: "MyCity1", "2017-07-12": "1", "2017-07-13": "2" },
  { Country: "US", City: "MyCity2", "2017-07-12": "2", "2017-07-13": "2" },
  { Country: "CN", City: "MyCity1", "2017-07-12": "5", "2017-07-13": "7" },
  { Country: "CN", City: "MyCity2", "2017-07-12": "5", "2017-07-13": "7" }
];

const update = data => {
  const res = {};
  data.forEach(({ Country, City, ...dates }) => {
    const item = res[Country] || { Country };
    Object.keys(dates).forEach(date => {
      item[date] = (item[date] || 0) + Number(dates[date]);
    });
    res[Country] = { ...item };
  });
  return Object.values(res);
};

console.log(update(objArr));
