Extract value from array of objects

Question

So I have this array of objects:

[ { type: 'month', value: '9' },
  { type: 'day', value: '11' },
  { type: 'year', value: '2021' },
  { type: 'hour', value: '7' },
  { type: 'minute', value: '35' },
  { type: 'second', value: '07' }  ]

I need a way to extract the value 9 using the search term month. Sure I could use:

var myObjects = [ 
  { type: 'month', value: '9' },
  { type: 'day', value: '11' },
  { type: 'year', value: '2021' },
  { type: 'hour', value: '7' },
  { type: 'minute', value: '35' },
  { type: 'second', value: '07' }  
] ;

console.log(myObjects[0]["value"]);

Problem is , this is really not using a search term, and I'm in a situation where the date format can change from en_GB to en_US and other complicated time formats which will make the month switch position to [1], [2] or [3].

Answer 1

One more variant:

var arr = [{ type: 'month', value: '9' },
  { type: 'day', value: '11' },
  { type: 'year', value: '2021' },
  { type: 'hour', value: '7' },
  { type: 'minute', value: '35' },
  { type: 'second', value: '07' }];

// var month = arr.filter(x => x.type == 'month')[0].value; // less efficient

var month = arr.find(x => x.type == 'month').value; // more efficient

console.log(month) // 9
