I have a similar array in the below format. I need to be able to find the object based on the id and it has to search for all the nested arrays (parent and child). And, the selectedId could be also be from the id of parent array.
Could anyone please advise?
Excerpt from my code
const cars = [{
id: 1,
name: 'toyota',
subs: [{
id: 43,
name: 'supra'
}, {
id: 44,
name: 'prius'
}]
}, {
id: 2,
name: 'Jeep',
subs: [{
id: 30,
name: 'wranger'
}, {
id: 31,
name: 'sahara'
}]
}]
const selectedId = 31;
const result = cars.find((val) => val.subs.id === selectedId)
console.log(result)My expected output should be
{id: 31, name: 'sahara'}
val.subs.idis undefined becausesubsis an array, you'll need another bit of logic to check the inner arrayconst result = cars.find(({id,subs}) => id === selectedId || subs.find(({id})=> id === selectedId))for-ofloop in this situation, since the existing array methods don't really work for this.
