Arrays are used to store data in a linear order and it is one of the most efficient and widely used data structures. Array data can be addressed using a numeric index in sequential order and it is starting from zero. And also real-world data is stored in tables via rows and columns.


An Array of objects, stores multiple items in a single variable. The object can be anything in the real world, such as a person's name and images. Objects are always very easy to use in some situations. Properties of an object can be called by using an array(“.”) notation and (“[]”) notation.

We can use the map function to access each object from the array.

The map() method in JavaScript creates a new array by calling a particular function on each element present in the array. It is a non-mutating method. 

A grid is a combination of intersecting horizontal and vertical portions defining columns and rows. Elements of the array can be placed onto the grid within these column and row portions. 

CSS grid layout has some features which are given below:

  • Fixed and flexible track sizes-This set the grid to the specified pixel which fits the layout you desire.
  • Item placement-You can place items into a specific location on the grid using line numbers, names, or by targeting the position of the grid.
  • Alignment control-Grid contains alignment features so that we can control how the items align once placed into a grid area, and how the entire grid is aligned.
  • Control of overlapping content-If more than one element can be placed into a grid cell or area and they can partially overlap each other.


Here is an example of how to print attributes of an object array as a grid in ReactJs:

In this solution we use the React library.

const rootElement = document.getElementById("root");
ReactDOM.render(
  <React.StrictMode>
    <div className="displayGrid">
      {Array(24).fill(0).map(() => (<img className="gridItem" src="https://picsum.photos/200" />))}
    </div>
  </React.StrictMode>,
  rootElement
);
.displayGrid {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 1fr);
  grid-gap: 1rem;
}

.gridItem {
  display: inline;
  height: 100px;
  width: auto;

<body>
  <div id="root"></div>
</body>

Instructions

Follow the steps carefully to get the output easily.

  1. Install the Node.js and React on your IDE(preferable Visual Studio Code).
  2. Create React Application using npx create-react-app foldername.
  3. cd foldername.
  4. Open the folder in IDE.
  5. Copy the code using "copy" button above and paste (line no 4 to 6) it in index.js file within the React.StrictMode tag,Paste the Style code into index.css and html code into index.html.
  6. import React library.
  7. Open the terminal from IDE.
  8. npm start to run the file.


I hope you found this useful. I have added the link to dependent libraries, version information in the following sections.


I found this code snippet by searching for 'Printing attributes of an object array as a grid in ReactJs 'in kandi. You can try any such use case!

Environment Tested

I tested this solution in the following versions. Be mindful of changes when working with other versions.

  1. The solution is created in VS Code 1.73.1 version.
  2. The solution is tested on Nodejs 16.14.2 version.
  3. react 18.2.0 version.


Using this solution, we are able to print attributes of an object array as a grid in ReactJs with simple steps. This process also facilities an easy way to use, hassle-free method to create a hands-on working version of code which would help us to print attributes of an object array as a grid in ReactJs.
