Collect.js - Interview Questions
What is the keyBy() and keys() method in Collect.js?
keyBy() : The keyBy() method keys the collection by the given key. If multiple items have the same key, only the last one will appear in the new collection:
const collection = collect([
  {
    product: 'Chair',
    manufacturer: 'IKEA',
  },
  {
    product: 'Desk',
    manufacturer: 'IKEA',
  },
  {
    product: 'Chair',
    manufacturer: 'Herman Miller',
  },
]);

const keyed = collection.keyBy('manufacturer');

keyed.all();

// {
//   IKEA: {
//     product: 'Desk',
//     manufacturer: 'IKEA',
//   },
//   'Herman Miller': {
//     product: 'Chair',
//     manufacturer: 'Herman Miller',
//   },
// }
You may also pass a callback to the method. The callback should return the value to key the collection by:
const upperCased = collection.keyBy(item => item.manufacturer.toUpperCase());

upperCased.all();

// {
//   IKEA: {
//     product: 'Desk',
//     manufacturer: 'IKEA',
//   },
//   'HERMAN MILLER': {
//     product: 'Chair',
//     manufacturer: 'Herman Miller',
//   },
// }
keys()The keys() method returns all of the collection's keys:
const collection = collect([
  {
    club: 'Liverpool',
    nickname: 'The Reds',
  },
]);

keys = collection.keys();

// ['club', 'nickname']
