I have a sample object name obj and filtered the object by id, in , and out(obj_res). How to find and update the particular obj with id fund in obj_res in javascript as shown in expected output

I got stuck need help how to do in javascript

var obj_res = getValue("bank", "bank", "trans");
function getValue(send, receive, id){
   const temp = obj.map(e => Object.entries(e).map(([k, val]) => val)).flat(3)
    result_obj = temp.filter(x=>x.in ==send && && x=>x.out ==receive && x.id == id);
  return result_obj;}
//whole object input
var obj = [{
    "btob": [{
      "id": "trans",
      "in": "bank",
      "out": "bank",
      "value": 10,
    },{
      "id": "fund",
      "in": "bank",
      "out": "bank",
      "value": 10
    }],
    "ctob": [{
      "id": "trans",
      "in": "credit",
      "out": "bank",
      "value": 20
    },{
      "id": "fund",
      "in": "credit",

//resultant obj after filter by id , in ,out 
var obj_res =[{
  "id": "trans",
  "in": "bank",
  "out": "bank",
  "value": 10
 },{
 "id": "fund",
 "in": "bank",
 "out": "bank",
 "value": 10

 Expected Output:
  res=[{
  "id": "trans",
  "in": "bank",
  "out": "bank",

A little bit late to the party, heh. I needed to modify deeply nested objects too, and found no acceptable tool for that purpose. Then I've made this and pushed it to npm.

https://www.npmjs.com/package/find-and

This small lib can help with modifying nested objects in a lodash manner. E.g.,

var findAnd = require("find-and");

const obj_res =[{
  "id": "trans",
  "in": "bank",
  "out": "bank",
  "value": 10
 },{
 "id": "fund",
 "in": "bank",
 "out": "bank",
 "value": 10
}];

findAnd.changeProps(obj_res, { id: 'fund' }, { in: 'credit' });

outputs exactly what you want.

Hope this could help someone else.

Use find() to get first instance if you think there is only one. Otherwise use filter() and loop over each to modify properties on each matching object

var obj_res = [{
  "id": "trans",
  "in": "bank",
  "out": "bank",
  "value": 10
}, {
  "id": "fund",
  "in": "bank",
  "out": "bank",
  "value": 10
}]


var fund = obj_res.find(({id}) => id === 'fund'); // returns array element or false

if (fund) {
  fund.in = 'XXXXX';
  console.log(obj_res)
}
