How can I remove an element from a list, with lodash?

Question

As lyyons pointed out in the comments, more idiomatic and lodashy way to do this would be to use _.remove, like this

_.remove(obj.subTopics, {
    subTopicId: stToDelete
});

Apart from that, you can pass a predicate function whose result will be used to determine if the current element has to be removed or not.

_.remove(obj.subTopics, function(currentObject) {
    return currentObject.subTopicId === stToDelete;
});

---

Alternatively, you can create a new array by filtering the old one with _.filter and assign it to the same object, like this

obj.subTopics = _.filter(obj.subTopics, function(currentObject) {
    return currentObject.subTopicId !== stToDelete;
});

Or

obj.subTopics = _.filter(obj.subTopics, {subTopicId: stToKeep});

Just use vanilla JS. You can use splice to remove the element:

obj.subTopics.splice(1, 1);

Demo

you can do it with _pull.

_.pull(obj["subTopics"] , {"subTopicId":2, "number":32});

check the reference

You can now use _.reject which allows you to filter based on what you need to get rid of, instead of what you need to keep.

unlike _.pull or _.remove that only work on arrays, ._reject is working on any Collection

obj.subTopics = _.reject(obj.subTopics, (o) => {
  return o.number >= 32;
});
