is there a function in lodash to replace matched item

Question

I wonder if there is a simpler method in lodash to replace an item in a JavaScript collection? (Possible duplicate but I did not understand the answer there:)

Answer 1

If you're looking for a way to immutably change the collection (as I was when I found your question), you might take a look at immutability-helper, a library forked from the original React util. In your case, you would accomplish what you mentioned via the following:

var update = require('immutability-helper')
var arr = [{id: 1, name: "Person 1"}, {id:2, name:"Person 2"}]
var newArray = update(arr, { 0: { name: { $set: 'New Name' } } })
//=> [{id: 1, name: "New Name"}, {id:2, name:"Person 2"}]
