How to search an array of objects and create a new array of objects matching a certain criteria

Advertisements

I would like to search an array of objects and create a new array of objects matching a certain criteria.

For example:

const locations = [
    {
      id: 1,
      location: "Sydeny",
      state: "nsw",
    },
    {
      id: 2,
      location: "Melbourne",
      state: "victoria",
    },
    {
      id: 3,
      location: "Newcastle",
      state: "nsw",
    },
    {
      id: 4,
      location: "Perth",
      state: "wa",
    },
];

I would like to create a new array of all the objects that match the state of nsw.

I have tried the .filter array method, but it only returns the first object.

  const result = locations?.find(
      ({ state }) => state === 'nsw'
    );

>Solution :

Just use the filter() method like comments suggest

const locations = [
    {
      id: 1,
      location: "Sydeny",
      state: "nsw",
    },
    {
      id: 2,
      location: "Melbourne",
      state: "victoria",
    },
    {
      id: 3,
      location: "Newcastle",
      state: "nsw",
    },
    {
      id: 4,
      location: "Perth",
      state: "wa",
    },
];

const result = locations.filter(ele => ele.state=='nsw');
console.log(result);
