v24.14.1Before, you want to find the closest or exact value in an array of objects or an array by values, it is important, so that you sort in ascending order, otherwise, it will not work. Example below shows how it works.
The search algorithm is based on https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/find-closest-number-array/.
If you have a big array, you can use a worker thread as in the code is on the bottom (4 ways to do it / same as in the event loop, but without blocking the event loop.)
npm install p3x-binary-search-closestIf you have mocha, you can test like this, it has a few use cases (you can see, before I execute this micro-service, I sort the array):
Note: Given npmjs.com has a narrow page, it is better to see the code on https://corifeus.com/binary-search-closest or https://github.com/patrikx3/binary-search-closest
Of course, when using a worker thread, the execution is about 20-25ms longer, than when we are in the event loop, so the worker thread is valid when we are working on a big dataset.
const assert = require('assert');
// for only browser (remove worker thread as is NodeJs Specific)
const bsClosest = require('p3x-binary-search-closest/browser')
// for full blown functions
const bsClosest = require('p3x-binary-search-closest')
