Map over object preserving keys

Question

The map function in underscore.js, if called with a javascript object, returns an array of values mapped from the object\'s values.

_.map({one:          


        

Answer 1

I think you want a mapValues function (to map a function over the values of an object), which is easy enough to implement yourself:

mapValues = function(obj, f) {
  var k, result, v;
  result = {};
  for (k in obj) {
    v = obj[k];
    result[k] = f(v);
  }
  return result;
};
