Node: import object array from another js file?

Question

In a file called data.js, I have a big object array:

var arr = [ {prop1: value, prop2: value},...]

I\'d like to use this array into my Node.js

Answer 1

We can use destructuring to solve your problem.

In file1.js, we create an object array:

var arr = [{ prop1: "beep", prop2: "boop" }];

Then we do the following to export:

module.exports = { arr };

Then in another file, file2.js, we require the array from file1

const f1 = require("./file1");

Log the result to test

console.log(f1.arr);
