How to access nested JSON property based on another property's value in JavaScript?

Javascript Web Development Object Oriented Programming

To access nested JSON property based on another property’s value, the code is as follows −

Example

var actualJSONData = JSON.parse(studentDetails()),
studentMarks = getMarksUsingSubjectName(actualJSONData, "JavaScript");
console.log("The student marks="+studentMarks);
function getMarksUsingSubjectName(actualJSONData, givenSubjectName){
   for(var tempObj of actualJSONData){
      if(tempObj.subjectName = givenSubjectName){
         return tempObj.marks;
      }
   }
}
function studentDetails(){
   return JSON.stringify(
      [
         { firstName : "John", subjectName: "JavaScript", marks : 97 },
         { firstName : "David", subjectName: "Java", marks : 98 }
      ]
   );
}

To run the above program, you need to use the following command −

node fileName.js.

Here, my file name is demo155.js.

Output

This will produce the following output −

PS C:\Users\Amit\JavaScript-code> node demo155.js
The student marks=97
