const collect = require('collect.js');

let obj1 = [{ "a": null }, { "a": 3 }, 
    { "b": null }, { "b": 33 }, { "a": null }];

// Making a collection
let collection = collect(obj1);

// Filtering the null values;
let collectionFilter = collection.whereNotNull("a");

// Printing the original collection
console.log("Original collection is: ", collection.all())
console.log("filter only key \"a\" for null values")
console.log("Filtered collection is: ", 
        collectionFilter.all());
