Add an object to a null variable in JS?

  • 772

Hello, thanks for your answers and comments. I come to you for the following, I have the following array of objects:

const customCatalogs = [
  customTableValues = [
    {id: 2, puestos: "Recursos Humanos", visible: "puesto dos"},
    {id: 1, puestos: "Dearrollador", visible: "puesto uno"}
  ],
  customEmployeeValue = null
];

I want to add to customEmployeeValue the following object:

{ 
  id: 1,
  puestos: "Dearrollador",
  visible: "puesto uno"
}

But I am trying to add this object inside a key named value, I want to achieve this:

   const customCatalogs = [
      customTableValues = [
        {id: 2, puestos: "Recursos Humanos", visible: "puesto dos"},
        {id: 1, puestos: "Dearrollador", visible: "puesto uno"}
      ],
      customEmployeeValue = {
        value: {
          id: 1,
          puestos: "Dearrollador",
          visible: "puesto uno"
      }
      }
    ];

Where the object I want to add has the key value .

I am trying as follows:

   
const payload = {
          id: 1,
          puestos: "Dearrollador",
          visible: "puesto uno"
      };

const customCatalogs = [
      customTableValues = [
        {id: 2, puestos: "Recursos Humanos", visible: "puesto dos"},
        {id: 1, puestos: "Dearrollador", visible: "puesto uno"}
      ],
      customEmployeeValue = null
    ];

customCatalogs.customEmployeeValue = payload;

console.log(customCatalogs)

Thank you all for your answers and comments.

    The problem is that the structure is poorly defined, based on your idea of ​​handling an array of objects, you would have to fix the structure and access index 1 of the array to be able to access the object whose key is "customEmployeeValue".

    You could do something like this:

    const payload = {
    id: 1,
    puestos: "Dearrollador",
    visible: "puesto uno"
};

const customCatalogs = [
{customTableValues: [
  {id: 2, puestos: "Recursos Humanos", visible: "puesto dos"},
  {id: 1, puestos: "Dearrollador", visible: "puesto uno"}
]},
{customEmployeeValue: null}
];

customCatalogs[1].customEmployeeValue = payload;

console.log(customCatalogs)

    Another way is not to use an array and do everything with an object. As follows:

    const payload = {
  id: 1,
  puestos: "Dearrollador",
  visible: "puesto uno",
};

const customCatalogs = {
  customTableValues: [
    { id: 2, puestos: "Recursos Humanos", visible: "puesto dos" },
    { id: 1, puestos: "Dearrollador", visible: "puesto uno" },
  ],
  customEmployeeValue: null,
};

customCatalogs.customEmployeeValue = payload;

console.log(customCatalogs);
