var mainObj = [
{
name: 'someName',
some_data: [
{
someOtherName: 'Some',
someOtherNum: '112'
},
{
someOtherName: 'A2325A',
someOtherNum: '132'
}
]
},
{
name: 'someName1',
some_data: [
{
someOtherName: 'Some',
someOtherNum: '112'
},
{
someOtherName: 'A2325A',
someOtherNum: '132'
}
]
}
]
This particular content is hard coded, I want this to be generated dynamically from an array where all this data is being stored. Can this be done?

Hi Mathu,
Can you clarify what you mean by dynamically created? You've got an object with an array of stuff in it. Each array element has a couple properties. What's next?

Assume I have an array as follows - var mainArray = new Array("mainObj1", "mainObj2", "mainObj3");
So the main object itself needs to be created dynamically. And sub objects from another array needs to be added under main object.

Hi Muthu,
I'd do it something like this:
var myObj = {};
var mainArray = new Array("mainObj1", "mainObj2", "mainObj3"
for (var i = 0; i < mainArray.length; i++) {
myObj[mainArray[i]] = {};
// now populate myObj.mainObj1.whatever with what you want (the loop will substitute mainObj1 with 2, and 3)
}
End result:
myObj = {[
mainObj1 : { },
mainObj2 : { },
mainObj3 : { }
]};

Hi Chuck,
How do I get output as below, Dynamically as you have shown above.
Say subNames is an another array var subNames = new Array("sub1", "sub2", "sub3");
myObj = {[
mainObj1 : {
name: name1,
subNames: [
{
someOtherName: 'Some',
someOtherNum: '112'
},
{
someOtherName: 'Some',
someOtherNum: '112'
}
]
},
mainObj2 : {
name: name2
},
mainObj3 : { same }
]};
