Django and Angular combine to create a floral mapping feature that allows users to easily return to their task list

I am looking to arrange the output from the flower library (/api/tasks) into a list of objects. The current response includes multiple objects, but lacks a "list wrapper", making it difficult to iterate over. API:

An example of the return is as follows:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Length: 1109
Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8
Etag: "b2478118015c8b825f7b88ce6b660e5449746c37"
Server: TornadoServer/3.1.1

{
    "e42ceb2d-8730-47b5-8b4d-8e0d2a1ef7c9": {
        "args": "[3, 4]",
        "client": null,
        ...
    }
}

Any suggestions on how to achieve this? I have attempted the following:

export interface Tasks {
  tasks: TaskWrapper[]
}

export interface TaskWrapper {
  [uuid: string]: Task
}

export interface Task {
  uuid: string,
  state: string,
  received: string,
}

However, implementing Dragan's example leads to an issue:

loadAllTasksFromFlower(): Observable<Task[]> { 
return this.http.get<Task[]>("localhost:5566/api/tasks")
.pipe(map(response => Object.entries(response)
.map(entry => ({ uuid: entry[0], state: entry[1].state, received: entry[1].received }))
}

TS2322: Type 'Observable<{ uuid: string; state: TaskState; received: any; }[]>' is not assignable to type 'Observable<Task[]>'.   Type '{ uuid: string; state: TaskState; received: any; }[]' is not assignable to type 'Task[]'.     Type '{ uuid: string; state: TaskState; received: any; }' is missing the following properties from type 'Task': type, source, invoke, callback, and 3 more.

Your interface arrangement is quite effective, consider using the following method to store items in an array:

const taskList: Task[] = Object.entries(data).map(entry => ({
    id: entry[0],
    status: entry[1].status,
    dateReceived: entry[1].dateReceived
}));
