return array of objects from props React JS

so I have the following component that is a dropdown list created using react-select.

import React from 'react'
import Select from 'react-select';

const options = [
  { value: 'chocolate', label: 'Chocolate' },
  { value: 'strawberry', label: 'Strawberry' },
  { value: 'vanilla', label: 'Vanilla' }
];


class MealsFilters extends React.Component {
  constructor(props) {
    super(props);
    this.state = {
      selectedOption: null,
    };
  }

  handleChange = (selectedOption) => {
    this.setState({ selectedOption });
    console.log(`Option selected:`, selectedOption);
  }

  render() {
    const { selectedOption } = this.state;
    return (
      <div className="container my-3">
        <div className="row">
          <div className="col-lg-4 col-md-6 col-sm-8">
            <Select
            isMulti
            isSearchable
            placeholder={"catégories"}
            value={selectedOption}
            onChange={this.handleChange}
            options={options}
            />
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>
    )
  }
}

export default MealsFilters;

the options variable is the default one from the docs. I actually need to replace its values by each meal category available. To do so, as you can see, I need to create an array of objects with a value and a label.

this component accesses meal categories through props called meals that are like so: 

console.log(this.props.meals);

=> [{
     id: 0,
     name: spaghettis,
     category: italian,
     price: 5.99},
    {
     id: 1,
     name: hamburger,
     category: american,
     price: 7.99},
     {
      etc.
      }, {}]

How can I take advantage of this.props.meals to get my options array of objects ?

EDIT: multiple meals can have the same category, and I need each category to only appear once in the options.

You could do something like this:

options={this.props.meals.map(
  ({id, name})=>({value:id,label:name})
)}

You could also use redux connect to create a container that will map the data to dropdown values for you

You can merge the data by category in the following way:

var items = [
  {
    id: 0,
    name: 'spaghettis',
    category: 'italian',
    price: 5.99,
  },
  {
    id: 1,
    name: 'hamburger',
    category: 'american',
    price: 7.99,
  },
  {
    id: 2,
    name: 'other hamburger',
    category: 'american',
    price: 7.99,
  },
];

console.log(
  [
    ...items.reduce(
      (result, item) => (
        result.get(item.category)
          ? result.get(item.category).push(item.id)
          : result.set(item.category, [item.id]),
        result
      ),
      new Map(),
    ),
  ].map(([label, value]) => ({ label, value })),
);

In the component it'll look like this:

options={[
  ...this.props.meals.reduce(
    (result, item) => (
      result.get(item.category)
        ? result.get(item.category).push(item.id)
        : result.set(item.category, [item.id]),
      result
    ),
    new Map(),
  ),
].map(([label, value]) => ({ label, value }))}

You can use getOptionLabel and getOptionValue props.

<Select
    options={this.props.meals},
    getOptionLabel={m => m.name}
    getOptionValue={m => m.id} />

https://react-select.com/props

getOptionLabel generic = (option) => string

Resolves option data to a string to be displayed as the label by components

getOptionValue generic = (option) => string

Resolves option data to a string to compare options and specify value attributes

You only need the "name" property so when you map through meals, simply retrieve it. Then upper case the first letter.

const meals = [{
    id: 0,
    name: "spaghettis",
    category: "italian",
    price: 5.99
  },
  {
    id: 1,
    name: "hamburger",
    category: "american",
    price: 7.99
  }
]

const result = meals.map(({name}) => ({
  label: `${name[0].toUpperCase()}${name.slice(1)}`,
  value: name
}))

console.log(result);

Map over your this.props.meals array, and create the needed options array,

<Select
    isMulti
    isSearchable
    placeholder={"catégories"}
    value={selectedOption}
    onChange={this.handleChange}
    options={this.props.meal.map(item=>({value: item.id, label: item.name}))}
/>
