I have the following data-structure:

{
    "Category": "cars",
    "Limit": "10",
    "Properties": [
        {
            "value": "red",
            "key": "colour"
        },
        {
            "value": "bmw",
            "key": "make"
        },
        {
            "value": "estate",
            "key": "body"
        }
    ],
    "Offset": "0"
}

I need to rebuild it so that it looks like this: 

{
    "Category": "cars",
    "Properties[0][key]": "colour",
    "Properties[1][key]": "make",
    "Properties[2][key]": "body",
    "Properties[2][value]": "estate",
    "Properties[0][value]": "red",
    "Limit": "10",
    "Offset": "0",
    "Properties[1][value]": "bmw"
}

Rather than re-inventing the wheel, are there any utilities that can assist here ? Or can somebody please provide some best advise regarding the best way to achieve this.

    I'm afraid that you have to build your own script for this. You will have to use recursion for that. – DontVoteMeDown Nov 12 '14 at 16:06
  • The most relevant utility I can think of is underscore.js. It has a bunch of functions for manipulating arrays, but none of them do quite what you want here. You'll have to right your own algorithm, most likely. – Raphael Serota Nov 12 '14 at 16:09
