Typescript Select Ids from object

Question

I am new to Typescript. I want to select ids from observable

This is my observable

let myObj = [{
  "id": 1,
  "text": "Mary"
}, {
  "id": 2,
  "text": "Nancy"
}, {
  "id": 3,
  "text": "Paul"
}, {
  "id": 4,
  "text": "Cheryl"
}, {
  "id": 5,
  "text": "Frances"
}]

Expected Result :

let selectedIds = [1,2,3,4,5];

Can I do this without creating an array and pushing the ids in a for loop.

Answer 1

Use Array#map to map one array to another:

const myObj = [{"id":1,"text":"Mary"},{"id":2,"text":"Nancy"},{"id":3,"text":"Paul"},{"id":4,"text":"Cheryl"},{"id":5,"text":"Frances"}];

const selectedIds = myObj.map(({ id }) => id);

console.log(selectedIds);
