_.uniqWith
myArray = _.uniqWith(myArray, _.isEqual);
filter
const trackObj = {}; myArray = myArray.filter(item => { if (trackObj[item.a]) { const foundDuplicateValue = (trackObj[item.a]).some((val) => { return _.isEqual(val, item.b); }); // If no duplicate value found, do nothing in this if block. // If duplicate value found, return false. This will filter out this datum. if (foundDuplicateValue) return false; } if (!trackObj[item.a]) { trackObj[item.a] = [item.b]; } else { trackObj[item.a].push(item.b); } return true; })
