map function for objects (instead of arrays)

Question

I have an object:

myObject = { \'a\': 1, \'b\': 2, \'c\': 3 }

I am looking for a native method, similar to Array.prototype.map

Answer 1

const mapObject = (targetObject, callbackFn) => {
    if (!targetObject) return targetObject;
    if (Array.isArray(targetObject)){
        return targetObject.map((v)=>mapObject(v, callbackFn))
    }
    return Object.entries(targetObject).reduce((acc,[key, value]) => {
        const res = callbackFn(key, value);
        if (!Array.isArray(res) && typeof res ==='object'){
            return {...acc, [key]: mapObject(res, callbackFn)}
        }
        if (Array.isArray(res)){
            return {...acc, [key]: res.map((v)=>mapObject(v, callbackFn))}
        }
        return {...acc, [key]: res};
    },{})
};
const mapped = mapObject(a,(key,value)=> {
    if (!Array.isArray(value) && key === 'a') return ;
    if (!Array.isArray(value) && key === 'e') return [];
    if (!Array.isArray(value) && key === 'g') return value * value;
    return value;
});
console.log(JSON.stringify(mapped)); 
// {"b":2,"c":[{"d":2,"e":[],"f":[{"g":4}]}]}

This function goes recursively through the object and arrays of objects. Attributes can be deleted if returned undefined
