Check if userid matches one in the array

I'm attempting to check if a user's ID is in this array and if they are, also get the "text" from it.

Array:

const staff = [
    {
        user: '245569534218469376',
        text: 'dev'
    },
    {
        user: '294597887919128576',
        text: 'loner'
    }
];

I've tried if (staff.user.includes(msg.member.id)) (Which I didn't think was going to work, and didn't.)

Solution 

  • const findUser = (users, id) => users.find(user => user.id === id)

const usersExample = [
  {
    id: '123456765',
    text: 'sdfsdfsdsd'
  },
  {
    id: '654345676',
    text: 'fdgdgdg'
  }
]
//////////////////


const user = findUser(usersExample, '123456765')

console.log(user && user.text)
