Iterate JSON map in JavaScript

Simple example code.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

  <script>
    var p = {
      "p1": "value1",
      "p2": "value2",
      "p3": "value3"
    };

    for (var key in p) {
      if (p.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
        console.log(key + " -> " + p[key]);
      }
    }

  </script>

</body>
</html> 

Output:

For-of with Object.keys() alternative:

var p = {
    0: "value1",
    "b": "value2",
    key: "value3"
};

for (var key of Object.keys(p)) {
    console.log(key + " -> " + p[key])
}

Using the new Object.entries() method:

Note: This method is not supported natively by Internet Explorer. You may consider using a Polyfill for older browsers.

const p = {
    "p1": "value1",
    "p2": "value2",
    "p3": "value3"
};

for (let [key, value] of Object.entries(p)) {
  console.log(`${key}: ${value}`);
}
