How to filter keys of an object with lodash?
Lodash has a _.pickBy
function which does exactly what you're looking for.
var thing = {
"a": 123,
"b": 456,
"abc": 6789
};
var result = _.pickBy(thing, function(value, key) {
return _.startsWith(key, "a");
});
console.log(result.abc) // 6789
console.log(result.b) // undefined

Just change filter to omitBy
const data = { aaa: 111, abb: 222, bbb: 333 };
const result = _.omitBy(data, (value, key) => !key.startsWith("a"));
console.log(result);

Here is an example using lodash
4.x:
const data = {
aaa: 111,
abb: 222,
bbb: 333
};
const result = _.pickBy(data, (value, key) => key.startsWith("a"));
console.log(result);
// Object { aaa: 111, abb: 222 }

<strong>Open your javascript console to see the output.</strong>
Native ES2019 one-liner
const data = {
aaa: 111,
abb: 222,
bbb: 333
};
const filteredByKey = Object.fromEntries(Object.entries(data).filter(([key, value]) => key.startsWith("a")))
console.log(filteredByKey);
A non-lodash way to solve this in a fairly readable and efficient manner:
function filterByKeys(obj, keys = []) {
const filtered = {}
keys.forEach(key => {
if (obj.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
filtered[key] = obj[key]
}
})
return filtered
}
const myObject = {
a: 1,
b: 'bananas',
d: null
}
const result = filterByKeys(myObject, ['a', 'd', 'e'])
console.log(result) // {a: 1, d: null}
