This solution may helpful as well:

Array.prototype.grep = function (key, value) {
    var that = this, ret = [];
    this.forEach(function (elem, index) {
        if (elem[key] === value) {
            ret.push(that[index]);
        }
    });
    return ret.length < 2 ? ret[0] : ret;
};
var bar = myArray.grep("id","45");

I made it just like $.grep and if one object is find out, function will return the object, rather than an array.

Shortest,

var theAnswerObj = _.findWhere(array, {id : 42});

Consider "axesOptions" to be array of objects with an object format being {:field_type => 2, :fields => [1,3,4]}

function getFieldOptions(axesOptions,choice){
  var fields=[]
  axesOptions.each(function(item){
    if(item.field_type == choice)
        fields= hashToArray(item.fields)
  });
  return fields;
}

We can use Jquery methods $.each()/$.grep()

var data= [];
$.each(array,function(i){if(n !== 5 && i > 4){data.push(item)}}

or

var data = $.grep(array, function( n, i ) {
  return ( n !== 5 && i > 4 );
});

use ES6 syntax:

Array.find, Array.filter, Array.forEach, Array.map

Or use Lodash https://lodash.com/docs/4.17.10#filter, Underscore https://underscorejs.org/#filter

I really liked the answer provided by Aaron Digulla but needed to keep my array of objects so I could iterate through it later. So I modified it to

	var indexer = {};
	for (var i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
	    indexer[array[i].id] = parseInt(i);
	}
	
	//Then you can access object properties in your array using 
	array[indexer[id]].property

Use Array.prototype.filter() function.

JSON

var jsonObj =[
 {
  "name": "Me",
  "info": {
   "age": "15",
   "favColor": "Green",
   "pets": true
  }
 },
 {
  "name": "Alex",
  "info": {
   "age": "16",
   "favColor": "orange",
   "pets": false
  }
 },
{
  "name": "Kyle",
  "info": {
   "age": "15",
   "favColor": "Blue",
   "pets": false
  }
 }
];

FILTER

var getPerson = function(name){
    return jsonObj.filter(function(obj) {
      return obj.name === name;
    });
}

You can do this even in pure JavaScript by using the in built "filter" function for arrays:

Array.prototype.filterObjects = function(key, value) {
    return this.filter(function(x) { return x[key] === value; })
}

So now simply pass "id" in place of key and "45" in place of value, and you will get the full object matching an id of 45. So that would be,

myArr.filterObjects("id", "45");

As long as the browser supports ECMA-262, 5th edition (December 2009), this should work, almost one-liner:

var bFound = myArray.some(function (obj) {
    return obj.id === 45;
});

Building on the accepted answer:

jQuery:

var foo = $.grep(myArray, function(e){ return e.id === foo_id})
myArray.pop(foo)

Or CoffeeScript:

foo = $.grep myArray, (e) -> e.id == foo_id
myArray.pop foo

If you do this multiple times, you may set up a Map (ES6):

const map = new Map( myArray.map(el => [el.id, el]) );

Then you can simply do:

map.get(27).foo

You may try out Sugarjs from http://sugarjs.com/.

It has a very sweet method on Arrays, .find. So you can find an element like this:

array.find( {id: 75} );

You may also pass an object with more properties to it to add another "where-clause".

Note that Sugarjs extends native objects, and some people consider this very evil...

You can use filters,

  function getById(id, myArray) {
    return myArray.filter(function(obj) {
      if(obj.id == id) {
        return obj 
      }
    })[0]
  }

get_my_obj = getById(73, myArray);

myArray.filter(function(a){ return a.id == some_id_you_want })[0]

ECMAScript 2015在数组上提供了find（）方法：

var myArray = [
 {id:1, name:"bob"},
 {id:2, name:"dan"},
 {id:3, name:"barb"},
]

// grab the Array item which matchs the id "2"
var item = myArray.find(item => item.id === 2);

// print
console.log(item.name);

它无需外部库即可工作。但是，如果您希望使用较旧的浏览器支持，则可能需要包含此polyfill。

由于您已经在使用jQuery，因此可以使用旨在搜索数组的grep函数：

var result = $.grep(myArray, function(e){ return e.id == id; });

结果是包含找到的项目的数组。如果您知道对象始终存在并且只发生一次，则可以使用result[0].foo获取值。否则，您应该检查结果数组的长度。例：

if (result.length === 0) {
  // no result found
} else if (result.length === 1) {
  // property found, access the foo property using result[0].foo
} else {
  // multiple items found
}
