Get dynamic key value from an array angularjs - angularjs

Question

I have a mongo collection called settings
{
"_id": "123",
"type": "subject",
"name": "Main",
"list": [{
"_id": "123",
"name": "Maths"
}, {
"_id": "123",
"name": " Physics"
}]
}
{
"_id": "123",
"type": "exam",
"name": "Activities",
"list": [{
"_id": "123",
"name": "Reading"
}, {
"_id": "123",
"name": "Fluency"
}]
}
Note: the values provided in my mongo is only for reference purpose.
Now I have generated an array with the records in settings collection
self.sample = function() {
self.settingsObj = {}
// console.log(self.settings)
_.each(self.settings, function(settings) {
//_.each(self.settings, function(settings) {
if (!self.settingsObj[settings.type]) {
self.settingsObj[settings.type] = []
}
self.settingsObj[settings.type] = settings.list
})
console.log(self.settingsObj)
}
When I console the settingsObj I get result like this in my console
Object {subject: Array[2], exam: Array[2]}
Now I want to loop this inside a scope variable
$scope.search = [{
"name": "",
"data": ""
}]
inside this name i want to get the object name in this situation subject,exam and inside loop i want to loop the arrays for subject and exam.
I tried another ._each, and I got the key and value but how can I loop them correctly.
Otherwise please help me in generating subject and exams as different array

I'm not very sure if I understand your question.
But if I see well you're using a Lodash.js library so I provide below script using a lodash:
I assume that you have settings variable like this:
var settings = [ {
"_id": "123",
"type": "subject",
"name": "Main",
"list": [{
"_id": "123",
"name": "Maths"
}, {
"_id": "123",
"name": " Physics"
}]
}
,
{
"_id": "123",
"type": "exam",
"name": "Activities",
"list": [{
"_id": "123",
"name": "Reading"
}, {
"_id": "123",
"name": "Fluency"
}]
}];
And I create functions for process those settings:
function createSearch(settings){
return _(settings).flatMap(toSearchArray).value();
}
function toSearchArray(setting){
return _(setting.list).map("name").map(toSearchObject).value()
function toSearchObject(data){
return {
name: setting.type,
data: data
}
}
}
And when you call createSearch(settings)
you will receive this result:
[
{
"name": "subject",
"data": "Maths"
},
{
"name": "subject",
"data": " Physics"
},
{
"name": "exam",
"data": "Reading"
},
{
"name": "exam",
"data": "Fluency"
}
]
Hopefully this is what you need.
