How to iterate over a JavaScript object?

I have an object in JavaScript:

{
    abc: '...',
    bca: '...',
    zzz: '...',
    xxx: '...',
    ccc: '...',
    // ...
}

I want to use a for loop to get its properties. And I want to iterate it in parts (not all object properties at once).

With a simple array I can do it with a standard for loop:

for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) { ... } // first part
for (i = 100; i < 300; i++) { ... } // second
for (i = 300; i < arr.length; i++) { ... } // last

But how to do it with objects?

For iterating on keys of Arrays, Strings, or Objects, use for .. in :

for (let key in yourobject) {
  console.log(key, yourobject[key]);
}

With ES6, if you need both keys and values simultaneously, do

for (let [key, value] of Object.entries(yourobject)) {
    console.log(key, value);
}

To avoid logging inherited properties, check with hasOwnProperty :

for (let key in yourobject) {
   if (yourobject.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
      console.log(key, yourobject[key]);
   }
}

You don't need to check hasOwnProperty when iterating on keys if you're using a simple object (for example one you made yourself with {}).

This MDN documentation explains more generally how to deal with objects and their properties.

If you want to do it "in chunks", the best is to extract the keys in an array. As the order isn't guaranteed, this is the proper way. In modern browsers, you can use

let keys = Object.keys(yourobject);

To be more compatible, you'd better do this :

 let keys = [];
 for (let key in yourobject) {      
     if (yourobject.hasOwnProperty(key)) keys.push(key);
 }

Then you can iterate on your properties by index: yourobject[keys[i]] :

for (let i=300; i < keys.length && i < 600; i++) { 
   console.log(keys[i], yourobject[keys[i]]);
}
