Get all values of a key in a nested array of objects using ramda.js

Question

I am a little confused in how to proceed with this scenario using ramda. Here is the JSON that I am working with.

{ "type" : "CartWsDTO", "Cartentries" : [ { "entryNumber" : 1, "flightGroup" : { "PAXDetails" : [ { "paxID" : "1", "paxPrice" : "770.82", "paxType" : "ADT" }, { "paxID" : "2", "paxPrice" : "770.82", "paxType" : "ADT" } ] } }, { "entryNumber" : 2, "flightGroup" : { "PAXDetails" : [ { "paxID" : "1", "paxName" : "Vinitha", "paxPrice" : "770.82", "paxSurname" : "Vinitha", "paxType" : "ADT" }, { "paxID" : "2", "paxName" : "Prahal", "paxPrice" : "770.82", "paxSurname" : "Prahal", "paxType" : "ADT" } ] } } ] }

There are 2 CartEnteries in the above JSON. There is an array named paxDetails in flightGroup of each entry. From this paxDetails array I want to pick the paxPrice and make a sum of all the pax prices for that cart entry. In traditional for loop and if conditions I am able to achieve it. But using Ramda I couldn't understand how to start with. Kindly provide me a solution.

Thanks in advance.

It's not entirely clear to me what you're looking for as output. Here's a solution that simply returns the sum of the two sets of prices and returns an array with those values:

var calcTotals = R.pipe(
    R.prop('Cartentries'),
    R.map(R.pipe(
        R.path(['flightGroup', 'PAXDetails']),
        R.map(R.pipe(R.prop('paxPrice'), Number)),
        R.sum
    ))
);
calcTotals(cart); //=> [1541.64, 1541.64]

But if you wanted a different sort of output, such as

{1: 1541.64, 2: 1541.64}

or

[{entryNumber : 1, total: 1541.64}, {entryNumber: 2. total: 1541.64}]

or whatever, you'd have to make some changes.

Thanks a lot.. This is what exactly I wanted.. This saved my time. I think I should get deeper understanding of the API to perform these things.
