In this article , we will learn how can we swap key with their value in map using custom typescript function.
Example
Here we have one colour map which having keys as OfferStatus enum and values as colour of badges.
enum OfferStatus {
INPROGRESS='INPROGRESS',
COMPLETE='COMPLETE',
DEACTIVATE='DEACTIVATE',
DELETED='DELETED'
}
type BadgeProps = {
color: 'gold' | 'green' | 'neutral' | 'red';
};
const colourMap = new Map<OfferStatus, BadgeProps['color']>([
[OfferStatus.INPROGRESS, 'gold'],
[OfferStatus.COMPLETE, 'green'],
[OfferStatus.DEACTIVATE, 'neutral'],
[OfferStatus.DELETED, 'red'],
]);
Now lets swap their values using below function -
function createReverseMap<K, V>(map: Map<K, V>): Map<V, K> {
return new Map(Array.from(map, ([key, value]) => [value, key]));
}
const reverseColourMap = createReverseMap(colourMap);
console.log(Array.from(reverseColourMap.values()));
// output : ["INPROGRESS", "COMPLETE", "DEACTIVATE", "DELETED"]
console.log(Array.from(reverseColourMap.keys()));
// output : ["INPROGRESS", "COMPLETE", "DEACTIVATE", "DELETED"]
values() method will return map iterator which is
MapIterator<OfferStatus> and keys() method will return map iterator which is
MapIterator<MapIterator<"gold" | "green" | "neutral" | "red">
Then Array.from() expect iterator to construct the array.(Creates an array from an iterable object.)
