Using array map to filter results with if conditional

by

You’re looking for the .filter() function:

  $scope.appIds = $scope.applicationsHere.filter(function(obj) {
    return obj.selected;
  });

That’ll produce an array that contains only those objects whose “selected” property is true (or truthy).

edit sorry I was getting some coffee and I missed the comments – yes, as jAndy noted in a comment, to filter and then pluck out just the “id” values, it’d be:

  $scope.appIds = $scope.applicationsHere.filter(function(obj) {
    return obj.selected;
  }).map(function(obj) { return obj.id; });

Some functional libraries (like Functional, which in my opinion doesn’t get enough love) have a .pluck() function to extract property values from a list of objects, but native JavaScript has a pretty lean set of such tools.
