Inverts the key-value pairs of an object, without mutating it. The corresponding inverted value of each inverted key is an array of keys responsible for generating the inverted value. If a function is supplied, it is applied to each inverted key.
|
|
|
|
Use `Object.keys()` and `Array.prototype.reduce()` to invert the key-value pairs of an object and apply the function provided (if any).
|
|
Omit the second argument, `fn`, to get the inverted keys without applying a function to them.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const invertKeyValues = (obj, fn) =>
|
|
Object.keys(obj).reduce((acc, key) => {
|
|
const val = fn ? fn(obj[key]) : obj[key];
|
|
acc[val] = acc[val] || [];
|
|
acc[val].push(key);
|
|
return acc;
|
|
}, {});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
invertKeyValues({ a: 1, b: 2, c: 1 }); // { 1: [ 'a', 'c' ], 2: [ 'b' ] }
|
|
invertKeyValues({ a: 1, b: 2, c: 1 }, value => 'group' + value); // { group1: [ 'a', 'c' ], group2: [ 'b' ] }
|
|
