JavaScript merging objects by id

Question

What\'s the correct way to merge two arrays in Javascript?

I\'ve got two arrays (for example):

var a1 = [{ id : 1, name : \"test\"}, { id : 2, name :         


        

Answer 1

The lodash implementaiton:

var merged = _.map(a1, function(item) {
    return _.assign(item, _.find(a2, ['id', item.id]));
});

The result:

[  
   {  
      "id":1,
      "name":"test",
      "count":"1"
   },
   {  
      "id":2,
      "name":"test2",
      "count":"2"
   }
]
