Does anybody have idea for easy clean way (maybe using ES6) to get
from "6" to array [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] or "2" to [1, 2] etc.
I know I can use loop "for", but is there any shorter single-line way?

You can use the spread operator on the created array [...Array(n).keys()]
console.log([...Array(6).keys()]) console.log([...Array(2).keys()]) // or console.log(Array.from(Array(6).keys(), i => i+1)); console.log(Array.from(Array(2).keys(), i => i+1));2 Comments

you can also apply a mapping function to get the same output as OP:
Array.from(Array(6).keys(), i => i+1)

@NickParsons agreed
Using Array.from() with mapFn
console.log(Array.from({length: 6}, (_, i) => i + 1)); console.log(Array.from({length: 2}, (_, i) => i + 1));

You can use Array.from and it's callback
let range = num => Array.from({ length: num }, (_, i) => ++i) console.log(range(6)) console.log(range(2)) console.log(range(-6))

If you add the iterator, for example, to the prototype of Number, you could even spread numbers.
Number.prototype[Symbol.iterator] = function* () { for (var i = 0; i < this; i++) yield i; }; console.log([...10]);
