transform tree from db format to json format in javascript

I'm trying to transform my data on client side from this format:

let testLoad=  [{"id":7,"name":"Kuwait","parentId":2},
                    {"id":4,"name":"Iraq","parentId":2},
                    {"id":10,"name":"Qatar","parentId":2},
                    {"id":2,"name":"Middle East","parentId":1},
                    {"id":3,"name":"Bahrain","parentId":2},
                    {"id":6,"name":"Jordan","parentId":2},
                    {"id":8,"name":"Lebanon","parentId":2},
                    {"id":1,"name":"Africa/Middle East","parentId":null},
                    {"id":5,"name":"Israel","parentId":2},
                    {"id":9,"name":"Oman","parentId":2}];

to this format:

   let testLoad=  [{"id":55,"text":"Africa/Middle East","children":[
      {"id":2,"text":"Middle East","children":   [{"id":7,"name":"Kuwait","children":[]},
{"id":4,"name":"Iraq","children":[]},
{"id":10,"name":"Qatar","children":[]},
{"id":3,"name":"Bahrain","children":[]},
{"id":6,"name":"Jordan","children":[]},
{"id":8,"name":"Lebanon","children":[]},
{"id":5,"name":"Israel","children":[]},
{"id":9,"name":"Oman","children":[]}]}]

so I can use it in a tree library like gijgo tree or jstree in javascript.

You could use recursion :

var testLoad=  [{"id":7,"name":"Kuwait","parentId":2},
                    {"id":4,"name":"Iraq","parentId":2},
                    {"id":10,"name":"Qatar","parentId":2},
                    {"id":2,"name":"Middle East","parentId":1},
                    {"id":3,"name":"Bahrain","parentId":2},
                    {"id":6,"name":"Jordan","parentId":2},
                    {"id":8,"name":"Lebanon","parentId":2},
                    {"id":1,"name":"Africa/Middle East","parentId":null},
                    {"id":5,"name":"Israel","parentId":2},
                    {"id":9,"name":"Oman","parentId":2}];

function lookingForNodeWithParent( nodes, parentId ) {

  var arrayToReturn = [];

  for( var i = 0, length = nodes.length; i < length; i++ ) {
    if( nodes[i].parentId === parentId ) {
        var node = nodes[i];
      
      arrayToReturn.push({
        id: node.id,
        name: node.name,
        children: lookingForNodeWithParent( nodes, node.id )
      });
    }
  }
  
  return arrayToReturn;
}

var array = lookingForNodeWithParent( testLoad, null );
console.log( array )
