Package Exports
- group-array
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (group-array) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

var groupArray = require('group-array');Examples
var arr = [
{tag: 'one', content: 'A'},
{tag: 'one', content: 'B'},
{tag: 'two', content: 'C'},
{tag: 'two', content: 'D'},
{tag: 'three', content: 'E'},
{tag: 'three', content: 'F'}
];
// group by the `tag` property
groupArray(arr, 'tag');results in:
{
one: [
{tag: 'one', content: 'A'},
{tag: 'one', content: 'B'}
],
two: [
{tag: 'two', content: 'C'},
{tag: 'two', content: 'D'}
],
three: [
{tag: 'three', content: 'E'},
{tag: 'three', content: 'F'}
]
}Group by multiple, deeply nested properties
// given an array of object, like blog posts...
var arr = [
{ data: { year: '2014', tag: 'one', month: 'jan', day: '01'}, content: '...'},
{ data: { year: '2014', tag: 'one', month: 'jan', day: '01'}, content: '...'},

groupArray(arr, 'data.year', 'data.tag', 'data.month', 'data.day');Results in something like this: (abbreviated)
