Concatenate two JSON objects
I have two JSON objects with the same structure and I want to concat them together using Javascript. Is there an easy way to do this?
Based on your description in the comments, you'd simply do an array concat:
var jsonArray1 = [{'name': "doug", 'id':5}, {'name': "dofug", 'id':23}];
var jsonArray2 = [{'name': "goud", 'id':1}, {'name': "doaaug", 'id':52}];
jsonArray1 = jsonArray1.concat(jsonArray2);
// jsonArray1 = [{'name': "doug", 'id':5}, {'name': "dofug", 'id':23},
//{'name': "goud", 'id':1}, {'name': "doaaug", 'id':52}];
If you'd rather copy the properties:
var json1 = { value1: '1', value2: '2' };
var json2 = { value2: '4', value3: '3' };
function jsonConcat(o1, o2) {
for (var key in o2) {
o1[key] = o2[key];
}
return o1;
}
var output = {};
output = jsonConcat(output, json1);
output = jsonConcat(output, json2);
Output of above code is{ value1: '1', value2: '4', value3: '3' }
The actual way is using JS Object.assign.
Object.assign(target, ...sources)

There is another object spread operator which is proposed for ES7 and can be used with Babel plugins.
Obj = {...sourceObj1, ...sourceObj2}
I use:
let x = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 }
let y = {c: 4, d: 5, e: 6 }
let z = Object.assign(x, y)
console.log(z)
// OUTPUTS:
{ a:1, b:2, c:4, d:5, e:6 }
From here.
