How to add an object array property?

When reading the attribute name, put the user3 of the attribute user2 and the same attribute into an object attribute name equal to a value.

I want to print it out：

[
  {
    name: 'b',
    user1: 'haha',
  },
  {
    name: 'a',
    user2: 'apple',
    user3: 'xiaomi'
  }
]

my code:

var data = [{
    name: 'b',
    user1: 'haha',
  },
  {
    name: 'a',
    user2: 'apple',
  },
  {
    name: 'a',
    user3: 'xiaomi'
  }
]

var arr = []

for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
  console.log(data[i].name)
}

reduce over the data to create an object with keys set to the name values, then return the Object.values of that object:

var data = [{ name: 'b', user1: 'haha' }, { name: 'a', user2: 'apple' }, { name: 'a', user3: 'xiaomi' }];

function groupByName(arr) {
  return Object.values(data.reduce((acc, c) => {
    const { name, ...rest } = c;
    acc[name] = acc[name] || {};
    acc[name] = { ...acc[name], name, ...rest };
    return acc;
  }, {}));
}

const output = groupByName(data);
console.log(output);

you can use for loop to find same elements and assign one to the other then remove the found element from the array with splice method

var data = [{
    name: 'b',
    user1: 'haha',
  },
  {
    name: 'a',
    user2: 'apple',
  },
  {
    name: 'a',
    user3: 'xiaomi'
  }
]

for (var i=0 ; i<data.length;i++){
  for(var j=i+1;j<data.length;j++){
    if(data[i].name===data[j].name){
      Object.assign(data[i],data[j])
      data.splice(j,1)
    }
  }
}
console.log(data)

The below code is first going to make known the same name fields and then will merge them.

var make_unique = function(xs, key) {
  // find same name fields
  let tmp_result =  xs.reduce(function(rv, x) {
    (rv[x[key]] = rv[x[key]] || []).push(x);
    return rv;
  }, {});
  // merge the same ones
  return Object.keys(tmp_result).map(item => {
     return tmp_result[item].reduce(function(rv, x) {
        return Object.assign(rv,x)
     }, {});
  })
};

To call it:

make_unique(data,'name')
