Deep copy an array in Angular 2 + TypeScript

Question

I have an array of objects that is an input. Lets call it content.

When trying to deep copy it, it still has a reference to the previous array.

Answer 1

Here is my own. Doesn't work for complex cases, but for a simple array of Objects, it's good enough.

  deepClone(oldArray: Object[]) {
    let newArray: any = [];
    oldArray.forEach((item) => {
      newArray.push(Object.assign({}, item));
    });
    return newArray;
  }
