javascript - Turn object into array, add object as new element -

trying transform object of objects:

var items: {     item_a: {         state: 'item_a status'     },     item_b: {         state: 'item_b status'     } }; 

into array of objects, whilst adding new array element object (the object key):

var items = [{     name: 'item_a',     state: 'item_a status' }, {     name: 'item_b',     state: 'item_b status' }]; 

my naive attempt, works, thus:

var arrayofitems = []; for(var x in items){     var itemobj = {         name: x     };     for(var y in items[x]){         itemobj[y] = items[x][y];     }     arrayofitems.push(itemobj); } 

i'm wondering if there's cleaner way this, using maybe underscore/lodash?

var newitems = _.map(items, function(item, key){   item.name = key;   return item; }); console.log(newitems);
