Lodash _.reject() Method

Lodash is a JavaScript library that works on the top of underscore.js. Lodash helps in working with arrays, collection, strings, objects, numbers etc.
The _.reject() method is opposite of _.filter() method and this method returns elements of the collection that predicate does not return true.

Syntax:

_.reject(collection, predicate)

Parameters: This method accepts two parameters as mentioned above and described below:

  • collection: This parameter holds the collection to iterate over.
  • iteratee: This parameter holds the function invoked per iteration.

Return Value: This method is used to return the new filtered array.

Example 1: Here, const _ = require(‘lodash’) is used to import the lodash library in the file.

javascript




// Requiring the lodash library 
const _ = require("lodash"); 
       
// Original array 
var users = [
  { 'user': 'Rohit', 'age': 25, 'active': false },
  { 'user': 'Mohit', 'age': 26, 'active': true } ];
   
// Use of _.reject() method
   
let gfg = _.reject(users, function(o) 
        { return !o.active; });
  
// Printing the output 
console.log(gfg);


Output:

[ { user: 'Mohit', age: 26, active: true } ]

Example 2:

javascript




// Requiring the lodash library 
const _ = require("lodash"); 
       
// Original array 
var users = [
  { 'employee': 'Rohit', 
    'salary': 50000, 
    'active': false 
  },
  { 'employee': 'Mohit', 
    'salary': 55000, 
    'active': true 
  } 
];
   
// Use of _.reject() method
// The `_.matches` iteratee shorthand
let gfg = _.reject(users, 
    { 'salary': 55000, 'active': true });
  
// Printing the output 
console.log(gfg);


Output:

[ { employee: Rohit, salary: 50000, active: false } ]

Example 3:

javascript




// Requiring the lodash library 
const _ = require("lodash"); 
       
// Original array 
var users = [
  { 'employee': 'Rohit', 
    'salary': 50000, 
    'active': false 
  },
  { 'employee': 'Mohit', 
    'salary': 55000, 
    'active': true 
  } 
];
   
// Use of _.reject() method
// The `_.matchesProperty` iteratee shorthand
let gfg = _.reject(users, ['active', false]);
  
// Printing the output 
console.log(gfg);


Output:

[ { employee: Mohit, salary: 55000, active: true } ]

Example 4:

javascript




// Requiring the lodash library 
const _ = require("lodash"); 
       
// Original array 
var users = [
  { 'employee': 'Rohit', 
    'salary': 50000, 
    'active': false 
  },
  { 'employee': 'Mohit', 
    'salary': 55000, 
    'active': true 
  } 
];
   
// Use of _.reject() method
// The `_.property` iteratee shorthand
let gfg = _.reject(users, 'active');
  
// Printing the output 
console.log(gfg);


Output:

[ { employee: Rohit, salary: 50000, active: false } ]

Note: This code will not work in normal JavaScript because it requires the library lodash to be installed.
