Hi here is one solution written by me Visit: aggregate_groupby_js on npm or in aggregate_groupby_js on github

The javascript library for using aggregate functions on array of objects. Basic functions like SUM, MIN, MAX, AVG, DISTINCT_COUNT for entire javascript objects

Example:

var arr = [{`"shape"`:`"square"`,`"color"`:`"red"`,`"used"`:1,`"instances"`:1},
    {`"shape"`:`"square"`,`"color"`:`"red"`,`"used"`:2,`"instances"`:1},
    {`"shape"`:`"circle"`,`"color"`:`"blue"`,`"used"`:0,`"instances"`:0},
    {`"shape"`:`"square"`,`"color"`:`"blue"`,`"used"`:4,`"instances"`:4},
    {`"shape"`:`"circle"`,`"color"`:`"red"`,"`used"`:1,`"instances"`:1},
    {`"shape"`:`"circle"`,`"color"`:`"red"`,`"used"`:1,`"instances"`:0},
    {`"shape"`:`"square"`,`"color"`:`"blue"`,`"used"`:4,`"instances"`:5}, 
    {`"shape"`:`"square"`,`"color"`:`"red"`,`"used"`:2,`"instances"`:1}];

// Specify columns
    var columns =[`"used"`, `"instances"`];

// Initialize object
    var gb = new GroupBy(arr,columns);
// or
    var gb = new GroupBy(arr,[`"used"`, `"instances"`]);

// Call the aggregate functions    
    gb.sum();
    gb.min();
    gb.max();
    gb.avg();
    gb.distinctCount();
