Find index of array by some string Javascript

Question

I'm working with an array like this one :

var table = ['view-only-access', 'restricted-access', 'full-access'];

I wanted to find the index by only string like 'view' , 'restricted', or 'full'. I have tried the .indexOf() but it requires the full string. does anyone know how to do this ?

Answer 1

This should work table.findIndex(element=>element.includes('restricted'))

Answer 2

const
 table = ['view-only-access', 'restricted-access', 'full-access']
, f_search = str => table.findIndex( x => x.startsWith( str ) )
 ;
 
console.log( f_search('full') ) // 2
console.log( f_search('restricted') ) // 1
console.log( f_search('view') ) // 0

• Andy: startsWith might be a little better than includes.
• Mister Jojo: @Andy, you are right, it's better ; thanks :)

Answer 3

var table = ['view-only-access', 'restricted-access', 'full-access'];
console.log(table.findIndex(i=>i.includes('view')));
