Flatten array with objects into 1 object
Use Object.assign
:
let merged = Object.assign(...arr); // ES6 (2015) syntax
var merged = Object.assign.apply(Object, arr); // ES5 syntax
Note that Object.assign
is not yet implemented in many environment and you might need to polyfill it (either with core-js, another polyfill or using the polyfill on MDN).
You mentioned lodash, so it's worth pointing out it comes with a _.assign
function for this purpose that does the same thing:
var merged = _.assign.apply(_, [{ a: 1 }, { b: 2 }, { c: 3 }]);
But I really recommend the new standard library way.
With lodash, you can use merge():
var arr = [ { a: 1 }, { b: 2 }, { c: 3 } ];
_.merge.apply(null, [{}].concat(arr));
// → { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 }
If you're doing this in several places, you can make merge()
a little more elegant by using partial() and spread():
var merge = _.spread(_.partial(_.merge, {}));
merge(arr);
// → { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 }
