DOM working with data
Get the name from the number
- You can obtain data from the server using a fetch call.
- In these examples you will be getting data from /worldl.json this is a list of 195 countries in json format
- The program snippet shows the name of country 42.
- Change it so it shows the name of country 50.
- See if you can find your country.
fetch('/worldl.json')
.then((r)=>r.json())
.then((r)=>{
let tgt = r[42];
document.body.innerHTML = tgt.name;
});
fetch('/worldl.json')
.then((r)=>r.json())
.then((r)=>{
let tgt = r[50];
document.body.innerHTML = tgt.name;
});
Each country has a bunch of data associated, for example:
area: 330803 capital: "Kuala Lumpur" continent: "Asia" flag: "//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/66/Flag_of_Malaysia.svg" gdp: 304726000000 id: 102 name: "Malaysia" population: 30177000 tld: ".my"
Show the population
Alter your code so that the output matches the model answer.
fetch('/worldl.json')
.then((r)=>r.json())
.then((r)=>{
let tgt = r[102];
document.body.innerHTML =
`<div>${tgt.name}</div>`;
});
fetch('/worldl.json')
.then((r)=>r.json())
.then((r)=>{
let tgt = r[102];
document.body.innerHTML =
`<div>${tgt.name} ${tgt.capital}</div>
`;
List D contries
List all the countries beginning with D.
fetch('/worldl.json')
.then((r)=>r.json())
.then((r)=>{
document.body.innerHTML
= r.filter(x=> x.name.startsWith('D'))
.map(x => `<div>${x.continent}</div>`)
.join('');
});
fetch('/worldl.json')
.then((r)=>r.json())
.then((r)=>{
document.body.innerHTML =
r.filter(x => x.name.startsWith('D'))
.map(x => `<div>${x.name}</div>`)
.join('');
});
