Dataweave in Mule - Change value Array of Objects

I get a payload as input in the message transform component. It is an Array with Objcts:

 [
      {
          "enterprise": "Samsung",
          "description": "This is the Samsung enterprise",
      },
      {
          "enterprise": "Apple",
          "description": "This is the Apple enterprise ",
      }
  ]

I have a variable that replaces the description and the output that I want is:

[
      {
          "enterprise": "Samsung",
          "description": "This is the var value",
      },
      {
          "enterprise": "Apple",
          "description": "This is the var value",
      }
  ]

I tried to use:

 %dw 2.0
 output application/java
 ---
 payload map ((item, index) -> {

     description: vars.descriptionValue
 })

But it returns:

 [
      {
          "description": "This is the var value",
      },
      {
          "description": "This is the var value",
      }
  ]

Is possible to replace only the description value keeping the rest of the fields? Avoiding adding the other fields in the mapping.

There are many ways to do this.

One way to do it is to first remove the original description field and then add the new one

%dw 2.0
output application/java
---
payload map ((item, index) -> 
    item - "description" ++ {description: vars.descriptionValue}
)

Otherwise you can use mapObject to iterate over the key-value pairs of each object and with pattern matching add a case for when the key is description. I prefer this second way of doing it when I want to do many replacements.

%dw 2.0
output application/java
fun process(obj: Object) = obj mapObject ((value, key) -> {
    (key): key match {
        case "description" -> vars.descriptionValue
        else -> value
    }
})
---
payload map ((item, index) -> 
    process(item)
)
