A more flexible filtering array from another array which contain object properties

function filterFn(array, diffArray, prop, propDiff) { diffArray = !propDiff ? diffArray : diffArray.map(d => d[propDiff]) this.fn = f => diffArray.indexOf(f) === -1 if (prop) { return array.map(r => r[prop]).filter(this.fn) } else { return array.filter(this.fn) } } 

You can use it like this;

var arr = []; for (var i = 0; i < 10; i++) { var obj = {} obj.index = i obj.value = Math.pow(2, i) arr.push(obj) } var arr2 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] var sec = [{t:2}, {t:99}, {t:256}, {t:4096}] var log = console.log.bind(console) var filtered = filterFn(arr, sec, 'value', 't') var filtered2 = filterFn(arr2, sec, null, 't') log(filtered, filtered2)
