Javascript access certain Objects

Question

With Node js Im wrote a code that returns this:

  entries:
   [ { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] },
     { data: [Object] } ] } null

The code:

targetingIdeaService.get({selector: selector}, function (error, result) {
    var resultaten = result;
    console.log(resultaten);
})

My question is, How do i access this data. I remember in php you could do something like : $object['data'].

Is this possible with javascript.

I used stringify earlier and this was the output:

{ data:
        [ { key: 'KEYWORD_TEXT',
            value:
             { attributes: { 'xsi:type': 'StringAttribute' },
               'Attribute.Type': 'StringAttribute',
               value: 'nike e85ba630' } },
          { key: 'SEARCH_VOLUME',
            value:
             { attributes: { 'xsi:type': 'LongAttribute' },
               'Attribute.Type': 'LongAttribute',
               value: '3718581' } } ] },

Out of all this data I just want to get the first and the second value. In this case it would be value: 'nike e85ba630' and '3718581.

How do i do this?

Great explanation of how to acces object/array properties - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11922383/access-process-nested-objects-arrays-or-json — Diego, Jul 19 '17 at 11:39
You can access array (<<<---- which is what you have) entries by its index. `entries[0].data` — baao, Jul 19 '17 at 11:39
@Kevin.a you can checkout my code below. It will work throughout your object. — Kamesh, Jul 19 '17 at 11:52

You can do it like this:

var res = resultaten.entries;
for(var i = 0; i < res.length; i++){
    var data = res[i].data;
    for(var j = 0; j < data.length; j++){
        var valueObject = data[j].value;
        console.log(valueObject.value);
    }
}

Additional Code you requested:

var res = resultaten.entries;
var arr = [];
for(var i = 0; i < res.length; i++){
    var data = res[i].data;
    var obj = {};
    for(var j = 0; j < 2; j++){
        var valueObject = data[j].value;
        console.log(valueObject.value);
        if(j === 0){
            obj.KEYWORD_TEXT = valueObject.value;
        }
        else if(j === 1){
            obj.SEARCH_VOLUME = valueObject.value;
        }
        arr.push(obj);
    }
}
console.log('ARRAY', arr);

What is your exact stringified object. Can you post it? – Kamesh Jul 19 '17 at 11:59
Hi, I want the output to be a formatted like this : [ { "KEYWORD_TEXT": "red herring 9e23f4ad", "SEARCH_VOLUME": 4574730 }, { "KEYWORD_TEXT": "nike 656e95f0", "SEARCH_VOLUME": 3442386 }, Do you know how to achieve this ? – Kevin.a Jul 19 '17 at 12:32
Is it fixed that the data array in your case will have only 2 objects? – Kamesh Jul 19 '17 at 12:36
Its working but in this case it only shows the values, I would like it to show it like this [ { "KEYWORD_TEXT": "red herring 9e23f4ad", "SEARCH_VOLUME": 4574730 } If this is possible – Kevin.a Jul 19 '17 at 12:39
I get the exact same output as before – Kevin.a Jul 19 '17 at 12:50
Print the array arr in last. – Kamesh Jul 19 '17 at 12:50
