How do I convert array of Objects into one Object in JavaScript?

I have an array of objects:

[ 
  { key : '11', value : '1100', $$hashKey : '00X' },
  { key : '22', value : '2200', $$hashKey : '018' }
];

How do I convert it into the following by JavaScript?

{
  "11": "1100",
  "22": "2200"
}

Tiny ES6 solution can look like:

var arr = [{key:"11", value:"1100"},{key:"22", value:"2200"}];
var object = arr.reduce(
  (obj, item) => Object.assign(obj, { [item.key]: item.value }), {});

console.log(object)

Also, if you use object spread, than it can look like:

var object = arr.reduce((obj, item) => ({...obj, [item.key]: item.value}) ,{});

One more solution that is 99% faster is(tested on jsperf):

var object = arr.reduce((obj, item) => (obj[item.key] = item.value, obj) ,{});

Here we benefit from comma operator, it evaluates all expression before comma and returns a last one(after last comma). So we don't copy obj each time, rather assigning new property to it.

Trying to fix this answer in https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19874555/how-do-i-convert-array-of-objects-into-one-object-in-javascript,

this should do it:

var array = [
    {key:'k1',value:'v1'},
    {key:'k2',value:'v2'},
    {key:'k3',value:'v3'}
];
var mapped = array .map(item => ({ [item.key]: item.value }) );
var newObj = Object.assign({}, ...mapped );
console.log(newObj );

One-liner:

var newObj = Object.assign({}, ...(array.map(item => ({ [item.key]: item.value }) )));

You're probably looking for something like this:

// original
var arr = [ 
  {key : '11', value : '1100', $$hashKey : '00X' },
  {key : '22', value : '2200', $$hashKey : '018' }
];

//convert
var result = {};
for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
  result[arr[i].key] = arr[i].value;
}

console.log(result);

I like the functional approach to achieve this task:

var arr = [{ key:"11", value:"1100" }, { key:"22", value:"2200" }];
var result = arr.reduce(function(obj,item){
  obj[item.key] = item.value; 
  return obj;
}, {});

Note: Last {} is the initial obj value for reduce function, if you won't provide the initial value the first arr element will be used (which is probably undesirable).

Using Object.fromEntries:

const array = [
    { key: "key1", value: "value1" },
    { key: "key2", value: "value2" },
];

const obj = Object.fromEntries(array.map(item => [item.key, item.value]));

console.log(obj);

A clean way to do this using modern JavaScript is as follows:

const array = [  { name: "something", value: "something" },  { name: "somethingElse", value: "something else" },];

const newObject = Object.assign({}, ...array.map(item => ({ [item.name]: item.value })));

// >> { something: "something", somethingElse: "something else" }

Use lodash!

const obj = _.keyBy(arrayOfObjects, 'keyName')

Based on answers suggested by many authors, I created a JsPref test scenario. https://jsperf.com/array2object82364

Below are the screenshots of performance. It is a little shocking to me to see, chrome result is in contrast to firefox and edge, even after running it several times.

you can merge array of objects in to one object in one line:

const obj = Object.assign({}, ...array);

Update: The world kept turning. Use a functional approach instead.

Here you go:

var arr = [{ key: "11", value: "1100" }, { key: "22", value: "2200" }];
var result = {};
for (var i=0, len=arr.length; i < len; i++) {
	result[arr[i].key] = arr[i].value;
}
console.log(result); // {11: "1000", 22: "2200"}

Using Underscore.js:

var myArray = [
  Object { key="11", value="1100", $$hashKey="00X"},
  Object { key="22", value="2200", $$hashKey="018"}
];
var myObj = _.object(_.pluck(myArray, 'key'), _.pluck(myArray, 'value'));

Nearby 2022, I like this approach specially when the array of objects are dynamic which also suggested based on @AdarshMadrecha's test case scenario,

const array = [ 
  { key : '11', value : '1100', $$hashKey : '00X' },
  { key : '22', value : '2200', $$hashKey : '018' }];
  
let obj = {};
array.forEach( v => { obj[v.key] = v.value }) //assign to new object
console.log(obj) //{11: '1100', 22: '2200'}

let array = [
  { key: "key1", value: "value1" },
  { key: "key2", value: "value2" },
];

let arr = {};

arr = array.map((event) => ({ ...arr, [event.key]: event.value }));

console.log(arr);

Here's how to dynamically accept the above as a string and interpolate it into an object:

var stringObject = '[Object { key="11", value="1100", $$hashKey="00X"}, Object { key="22", value="2200", $$hashKey="018"}]';

function interpolateStringObject(stringObject) {
  var jsObj = {};
  var processedObj = stringObject.split("[Object { ");
  processedObj = processedObj[1].split("},");
  $.each(processedObj, function (i, v) {
      jsObj[v.split("key=")[1].split(",")[0]] = v.split("value=")[1].split(",")[0].replace(/\"/g,'');
  });

  return jsObj
}

var t = interpolateStringObject(stringObject); //t is the object you want

http://jsfiddle.net/3QKmX/1/

// original
var arr = [{
    key: '11',
    value: '1100',
    $$hashKey: '00X'
  },
  {
    key: '22',
    value: '2200',
    $$hashKey: '018'
  }
];

// My solution
var obj = {};
for (let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
  obj[arr[i].key] = arr[i].value;
}
console.log(obj)

You can use the mapKeys lodash function for that. Just one line of code!

Please refer to this complete code sample (copy paste this into repl.it or similar):

import _ from 'lodash';
// or commonjs:
// const _ = require('lodash');

let a = [{ id: 23, title: 'meat' }, { id: 45, title: 'fish' }, { id: 71, title: 'fruit' }]
let b = _.mapKeys(a, 'id');
console.log(b);
// b:
// { '23': { id: 23, title: 'meat' },
//   '45': { id: 45, title: 'fish' },
//   '71': { id: 71, title: 'fruit' } }
