How can I get all attributes (e.g. href) of all elements matching a jQuery selector?

Something like
var idArray = $(".someClass").map(function(){
return this.id
}).get().join(',');

Something like this perhaps?
var ids = [];
$('.myClass').each(function () {
ids.push($(this).attr('id')); // ids.push(this.id) would work as well.
});

Why are you creating a jQuery object (
$(this).attr('id')) rather than simply the native this.id?g.d.d.c
@David Thomas - force of habit more than anything else, probably, but I'll amend the answer.

@DavidThomas:
this.id only works for the id attribute because this is a DOM note. For the general case, e.g. href, you need either this.getAttribute('href') or $(this).attr('href').One-liner with ES6 arrow functions, using jQuery .map():
const ids = $('a.someClass').map((i, el) => el.getAttribute('href')).get();
console.log(ids);

<a href="test1" class="someClass">t1</a>
<a href="test2" class="someClass">t2</a>
<a href="test3" class="someClass">t3</a>

More simple solution with Underscore.js
For example: Get all links text who's parents have class someClass
_.pluck($('.someClass').find('a'), 'text');
