jQuery Question
Trying to form Object Array in jQuery
I'm trying to structure an object to follow the exact format of a firebase DB. The firebase DB looks like this:
{
"allUserForms":{
"waiver-form-1" : {
"name" : "Waiver Form 1",
"verbiage" : "<p>Waiver Form 1</p>"
},
"waiver-form-2" : {
"name" : "Waiver Form 2",
"verbiage" : "<p>Waiver Form 2</p>"
},
"waiver-form-3" : {
"name" : "Waiver Form 3",
"verbiage" : "<p>Waiver Form 3</p>"
},
"waiver-form-4" : {
"name" : "Waiver Form 4",
"verbiage" : "<p>Waiver Form 4</p>"
},
"waiver-form-5" : {
"name" : "Waiver Form 5",
"verbiage" : "<p>Waiver Form 5</p>"
}
}
}
I want an Object array that looks just like that. I've tried the following code but I'm getting an undefined when trying to push to the top key.
databaseArray.push("allUserForms");
databaseArray.allUserForms.push({ "waiver": waiver, "name": name, "verbiage": verbiage });
Waiver, name and verbiage are all values I set earlier in the function from the DB. I know it's something easy that I'm not getting.

Here is what I would do with an object rather than an array:
var databaseData = {}; // an object
databaseData.allUserForms = {}; // to match your example
for(var i = 0; i > 10; i++) {
databaseData.allUserForms['waiver-form-'+i] = { "waiver": waiver, "name": name, "verbiage": verbiage };
}
