Converting a JS object to an array using jQuery

Question

My application creates a JavaScript object, like the following:

myObj= {1:[Array-Data], 2:[Array-Data]}

But I need this object as an array.

Answer 1

After some tests, here is a general object to array function convertor:

You have the object:

var obj = {
    some_key_1: "some_value_1"
    some_key_2: "some_value_2"
};

The function:

function ObjectToArray(o)
{
    var k = Object.getOwnPropertyNames(o);
    var v = Object.values(o);

    var c = function(l)
    {
        this.k = [];
        this.v = [];
        this.length = l;
    };

    var r = new c(k.length);

    for (var i = 0; i < k.length; i++)
    {
        r.k[i] = k[i];
        r.v[i] = v[i];
    }

    return r;
}

Function Use:

var arr = ObjectToArray(obj);

You Get:

arr {
    key: [
        "some_key_1",
        "some_key_2"
    ],
    value: [
        "some_value_1",
        "some_value_2"
    ],
    length: 2
}

So then you can reach all keys & values like:

for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++)
{
    console.log(arr.key[i] + " = " + arr.value[i]);
}

Result in console:

some_key_1 = some_value_1
some_key_2 = some_value_2

Edit:

Or in prototype form:

Object.prototype.objectToArray = function()
{
    if (
        typeof this != 'object' ||
        typeof this.length != "undefined"
    ) {
        return false;
    }

    var k = Object.getOwnPropertyNames(this);
    var v = Object.values(this);

    var c = function(l)
    {
        this.k = [];
        this.v = [];
        this.length = l;
    };

    var r = new c(k.length);

    for (var i = 0; i < k.length; i++)
    {
        r.k[i] = k[i];
        r.v[i] = v[i];
    }

    return r;
};

And then use like:

console.log(obj.objectToArray);
