I want to add new key value to array ınto state? I tell you what I want to do below. How can I do that? 1. Start state in consruture method

`this.state = {
    files: []
}'
  1. After I doing set state with active files

    this.setState({files: activeFiles})

  2. Screen my state

    { files: [ { key1: val1, key2: val2, key3: val3 }, { key1: val1, key2: val2, key3: val3 }, { key1: val1, key2: val2, key3: val3 } ] }

  3. How to add new key value for each file? The state I want

    { files: [ { key1: val1, key2: val2, key3: val3, key4: val4 }, { key1: val1, key2: val2, key3: val3, key4: val4 }, { key1: val1, key2: val2, key3: val3, key4: val4 } ] }

I think This will meet the above scenario.

const newFile = this.state.files.map((file) => {

    return {...file, key4: val4};
});
this.setState({files: newFile });

You can make use of forEach and add the new value like

var newState = [...this.state.files];
newState.forEach(function(file) {
  file.key4 = "val4"
})
this.setState({files: newState}, function() {
  console.log(this.state.files);
})

Fiddle

class App extends React.Component {
  constructor() {
    super();
    this.state = {
        files: 
        [
            {
                key1: "val1",
                key2: "val2",
                key3: "val3"
            },
            {
                key1: "val1",
                key2: "val2",
                key3: "val3"
            },
            {
                key1: "val1",
                key2: "val2",
                key3: "val3"
            }
        ]
    }
  }
  componentDidMount() {
    console.log(this.state.files) ;
    
    var newState = [...this.state.files];
    newState.forEach(function(file) {
      file.key4 = "val4"
    })
    this.setState({files: newState}, function() {
      console.log(this.state.files);
    })
  }
  render() {
    return <div>Hello</div>
  }
}

ReactDOM.render(<App/>, document.getElementById('app'));
