Mutates the original array to filter out the values specified, based on a given iterator function.
|
|
|
|
- Check if the last argument provided is a function.
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.map()` to apply the iterator function `fn` to all array elements.
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.filter()` and `Array.prototype.includes()` to pull out the values that are not needed.
|
|
- Set `Array.prototype.length` to mutate the passed in an array by resetting its length to `0`.
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.push()` to re-populate it with only the pulled values.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const pullBy = (arr, ...args) => {
|
|
const length = args.length;
|
|
let fn = length > 1 ? args[length - 1] : undefined;
|
|
fn = typeof fn == 'function' ? (args.pop(), fn) : undefined;
|
|
let argState = (Array.isArray(args[0]) ? args[0] : args).map(val => fn(val));
|
|
let pulled = arr.filter((v, i) => !argState.includes(fn(v)));
|
|
arr.length = 0;
|
|
pulled.forEach(v => arr.push(v));
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var myArray = [{ x: 1 }, { x: 2 }, { x: 3 }, { x: 1 }];
|
|
pullBy(myArray, [{ x: 1 }, { x: 3 }], o => o.x); // myArray = [{ x: 2 }]
|
|
```
