// Requiring the lodash library const _ = require("lodash");Â
// Original array let array = [    { 'dir': 'left', 'code': 89 },    { 'dir': 'right', 'code': 71 }];Â
// Use of _.keyBy() methodlet keyby_array = _.keyBy(array, 'dir');Â
// Printing the output console.log(keyby_array); |
Output:
{ 'left': { 'dir': 'left', 'code': 89 },
'right': { 'dir': 'right', 'code': 71 } }
Example 2:
javascript
// Requiring the lodash library const _ = require("lodash");Â
// Original array let array = [    { 'dir': 'left', 'code': 89 },    { 'dir': 'right', 'code': 71 }];Â
// Use of _.keyBy() methodlet keyby_array = _.keyBy(array, function (o) {Â Â Â Â return String.fromCharCode(o.code);});Â
// Printing the output console.log(keyby_array); |
Output:
{ 'Y': { 'dir': 'left', 'code': 89 },
'G': { 'dir': 'right', 'code': 71 } }
