My question is simple, I have 2 objects like this:
object1 = {
content1: {}
}
object2 = {
stuff: {},
moreStuff: {}
}
And I want to add the content of object2 to content1 [which is inside of object1].
Like this:
object1 = {
content1: {
stuff: {},
moreStuff: {}
}
}

This is very simple;
object1.content1 = object2

This will allow you to add an object inside another
object.
With other examples you will get a substitution instead of adding. e.g.
const obj1 = {
innerObj:{
name:'Bob'
},
innerOBj2:{
color:'blue'
}
}
const obj2 = {
lastName:'Some',
age:45
}
obj1.innerObj = Object.assign[obj1.innerObj,obj2];
console.log[obj1];Now if you need something more advance, you should take a look to some functional programming framework like ramda, which will allow you to merge object. R.merge.

Something keeping you from doing: object1.content1 = object2 ?

Initialization
var object1 = {
content1:"1"
}
var object2 = {
content2:"2",
content3:"3"
}
Put contents of object2 into object1's content1
object1.content1 = object2;//this is the code you are looking for
console.log[object2];
You are done!

In order to push an array into the object in JavaScript, we need to utilize the push[] function. With the help of Array push function this task is so much easy to achieve.
push[] function: The array push[] function adds one or more values to the end of the array and returns the new length. This method changes the length of the array. But here we will use this function to push the whole array into an object.
Syntax:
arr.push[element1[, ...[, elementN]]]
An array can be inserted into the object with push[] function, below examples illustrate the above approach:
Example 1:
Javascript
var Obj = {
arrayOne: [],
arrayTwo: []
};
var
arraynew = ['Geeks', 'for', 'Geeks'];
Obj.arrayOne.push[arraynew];
alert[Obj.arrayOne];
Output:
Example 2:
Javascript
var Obj = {
arrayOne: ['Geeks', 'for', 'Geeks'],
arrayTwo: []
};
var arraynew = ['Hello', 'World', '!!!'];
Obj['arrayTwo'].push[arraynew];
alert[Obj.arrayTwo];
Output:
Supported Browsers: The supported browser by the Array Push[] Function are listed below:
- Google Chrome 1.0
- Internet Explorer 5.5
- Mozilla Firefox 1.0
- Safari
- Opera
JavaScript is best known for web page development but it is also used in a variety of non-browser environments. You can learn JavaScript from the ground up by following this JavaScript Tutorial and JavaScript Examples.
