Lodash

unionBy

Array
since 4.0.0

Arguments

  • ...Array The arrays to inspect.
  • Function The iteratee invoked per element.

Returns

Array the new array of combined values.

This method is like _.union except that it accepts iteratee which is invoked for each element of each arrays to generate the criterion by which uniqueness is computed. Result values are chosen from the first array in which the value occurs. The iteratee is invoked with one argument: (value).

Example of Lodash _.unionBy

_.unionBy([2.1], [1.2, 2.3], Math.floor);
// => [2.1, 1.2]

// The `_.property` iteratee shorthand.
_.unionBy([{ 'x': 1 }], [{ 'x': 2 }, { 'x': 1 }], 'x');
// => [{ 'x': 1 }, { 'x': 2 }]
