Install with npm:
$ npm install --save group-array
var groupArray = require('group-array');
var arr = [
{tag: 'one', content: 'A'},
{tag: 'one', content: 'B'},
{tag: 'two', content: 'C'},
{tag: 'two', content: 'D'},
{tag: 'three', content: 'E'},
{tag: 'three', content: 'F'}
];
// group by the `tag` property
groupArray(arr, 'tag');
results in:
{
one: [
{tag: 'one', content: 'A'},
{tag: 'one', content: 'B'}
],
two: [
{tag: 'two', content: 'C'},
{tag: 'two', content: 'D'}
],
three: [
{tag: 'three', content: 'E'},
{tag: 'three', content: 'F'}
]
}
Group by multiple, deeply nested properties
// given an array of object, like blog posts...
var arr = [
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'one', month: 'jan', day: '01'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'one', month: 'jan', day: '01'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'one', month: 'jan', day: '02'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'one', month: 'jan', day: '02'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'one', month: 'feb', day: '10'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'one', month: 'feb', day: '10'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'one', month: 'feb', day: '12'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'one', month: 'feb', day: '12'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'two', month: 'jan', day: '14'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'two', month: 'jan', day: '14'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'two', month: 'jan', day: '16'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'two', month: 'jan', day: '16'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2016', tag: 'two', month: 'feb', day: '18'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2017', tag: 'two', month: 'feb', day: '18'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2017', tag: 'two', month: 'feb', day: '10'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2017', tag: 'two', month: 'feb', day: '10'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2017', tag: 'three', month: 'jan', day: '01'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2017', tag: 'three', month: 'jan', day: '01'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2017', tag: 'three', month: 'jan', day: '02'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2017', tag: 'three', month: 'jan', day: '02'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2017', tag: 'three', month: 'feb', day: '01'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2017', tag: 'three', month: 'feb', day: '01'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2017', tag: 'three', month: 'feb', day: '02'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2017', tag: 'three', month: 'feb', day: '02'}, content: '...'}
]
Pass a list or array of properties:
groupArray(arr, 'data.year', 'data.tag', 'data.month', 'data.day');
Results in something like this: (abbreviated)
