Insert object on array in key value format

Question

I have an object set like this

var total = { \'Apple\': 0.6,
              \'Banana\': 0.6,
              \'Orange\': 1,
              \'Grapes\': 0.4,
             


        

Answer 1

You can use Array#map function on the object keys and create your objects with desired shape.

const total = { 
    'Apple': 0.6,
    'Banana': 0.6,
    'Orange': 1,
    'Grapes': 0.4,
    'Pineapple': 0.4 
};
              
const array = Object.keys(total)
                    .map(key => ({ name: key, value: total[key] }))
                    .sort((f, s) => f.value - s.value);

console.log(array);

If you use ES7 or higher you can replace Object#keys with Object#entries. Use also object destructuring in the parameter list to get name and value separately.

const total = { 
    'Apple': 0.6,
    'Banana': 0.6,
    'Orange': 1,
    'Grapes': 0.4,
    'Pineapple': 0.4 
};
              
const array = Object.entries(total)
                    .map(([name, value]) => ({ name, value }))
                    .sort((f, s) => f.value - s.value);;

console.log(array);
