Swap key with value in object

I have an extremely large JSON object structured like this:

{A : 1, B : 2, C : 3, D : 4}

I need a function that can swap the values with keys in my object and I don't know how to do it. I would need an output like this:

{1 : A, 2 : B, 3 : C, 4 : D}

Is there any way that I can do this would manually created a new object where everything is swapped?
Thanks

Solution 1:

function swap(json){
  var ret = {};
  for(var key in json){
    ret[json[key]] = key;
  }
  return ret;
}

Example here FIDDLE don't forget to turn on your console to see the results.

ES6 versions:

static objectFlip(obj) {
  const ret = {};
  Object.keys(obj).forEach(key => {
    ret[obj[key]] = key;
  });
  return ret;
}

Or using Array.reduce() & Object.keys()

static objectFlip(obj) {
  return Object.keys(obj).reduce((ret, key) => {
    ret[obj[key]] = key;
    return ret;
  }, {});
}

Or using Array.reduce() & Object.entries()

static objectFlip(obj) {
  return Object.entries(obj).reduce((ret, entry) => {
    const [ key, value ] = entry;
    ret[ value ] = key;
    return ret;
  }, {});
}

Solution 2:

you can use lodash function _.invert it also can use multivlaue

 var object = { 'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': 1 };

  _.invert(object);
  // => { '1': 'c', '2': 'b' }

  // with `multiValue`
  _.invert(object, true);
  // => { '1': ['a', 'c'], '2': ['b'] }

Solution 3:

Using ES6:

const obj = { a: "aaa", b: "bbb", c: "ccc", d: "ddd" };
Object.assign({}, ...Object.entries(obj).map(([a,b]) => ({ [b]: a })))

Solution 4:

Now that we have Object.fromEntries:

const f = obj => Object.fromEntries(Object.entries(obj).map(a => a.reverse()))

console.log(
  f({A : 'a', B : 'b', C : 'c'})
) // => {a : 'A', b : 'B', c : 'C'}

or:

const f = obj => Object.fromEntries(Object.entries(obj).map(([k, v]) => [v, k]))

console.log(
  f({A : 'a', B : 'b', C : 'c'})
) // => {a : 'A', b : 'B', c : 'C'}

(Updated to remove superfluous parentheses - thanks @devin-g-rhode)

Solution 5:

Get the keys of the object, and then use the Array's reduce function to go through each key and set the value as the key, and the key as the value.

const data = {
  A: 1,
  B: 2,
  C: 3,
  D: 4
}
const newData = Object.keys(data).reduce(function(obj, key) {
  obj[data[key]] = key;
  return obj;
}, {});
console.log(newData);
