ng-click to pass multiple arrays?

I have a nested json object array and I am able to display Inner Items grouped By Info in HTML using ng-repeat. I have a checkbox in front of each Inner Item where I am handling ng-click event and passing the selected Inner Items to the controller. But now I also wanted to pass Info id in the ng-click event. Can I concatenate the Info array to Inner items array in the ng-click
Here is the json :
[
{
"Info": {
"id": "a1",
"name": "a1-Info",
"InnerInfo": [
{
"name": "xyz"
}
]
},
"InnerItems": [
{ "id": "i1" },
{ "id": "i2" }
]
}
]
<tr ng-repeat=“I in MyData">
<td> {{I.Info.name}}
<table>
<tr><td>
<div ng-repeat=“item in I.InnerItems ">
<input type="checkbox" name="values" ng-click=“getInfo(I);getInnerItems(item)” ng-true-value="1" ng-false-value="0"/>{{item.name}}
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
I need to pass both arrays to one function instead of the above way. Any suggestions?

Use an expression with ng-click to set a property on the controller.
Say you have a property on the controller activeData, then use ng-click like this:
ng-click="activeData = [I , item]"

I have passed multiple parameters to one of my functions itself like getInfo (I, items) and tried to access in controller without having to use any property. It works fine

Firebase / Angular JS show only firebase entries created by logged in user

Right now I have a table that is currently showing all the entries form an "events" node in firebase.
However, I only want to show the events created by the logged in user. Right now they are showing events created by all users.
I'm guessing I might be able to use an ng-if directive after the ng-repeat in the tag, however, I am not sure what to put into it.
This is my table:
<table class="table table-striped">
<thead>
<tr>
<th>Title</th><th>Location</th> <th>Actions</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr scope="row" ng-repeat="event in events | reverse" >
<td>{{event.title}}</td>
<td>{{event.location}}</td>
<td><button class="btn btn-primary" ng-click="events.$remove(event)"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-trash" aria-hidden="true"></span></button></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
The user object looks like so:
{
"provider": "password",
"uid": "635gt3t5-56fe-400d-b50b-1a6736f8874a",
"token":
"eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJlbWFpbCI6Im1pY2hhZWwubGFyaXZpZXJlMTk3M0BnbWFpbC5jb20iLCJlbWFpbF92ZXJpZmllZCI6ZmFsc2UsImlhdCI6MTQ2OTEyNTYyOSwidiI6MCwiZCI6eyJwcm92aWRlciI6InBhc3N3b3JkIiwidWlkIjoiNmY5ZmM0NTUtNTZmZS00MDBkLWI1MGItMWE2NzM2Zjg4NzRhIn19.yIzzV7Or7tUlXi-sSWeioNx6LLoQ0U9qnW1X06rpSmA",
"password": {
"email": "xxxxxx.xxxxxx1234#gmail.com",
"isTemporaryPassword": false,
"profileImageURL": "https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/5f9effbf8cbea69792c595079cf25d38?d=retro"
},
"auth": {
"provider": "password",
"uid": "635gt3t5-56fe-400d-b50b-1a6736f8874a",
"token": {
"email_verified": false,
"email": "xxxxxx.xxxxxx1234#gmail.com",
"exp": 1469212029,
"iat": 1469125629,
"sub": "635gt3t5-56fe-400d-b50b-1a6736f8874a",
"auth_time": 1469125629,
"firebase": {
"identities": {
"email": [
"xxxxxx.xxxxxx1234#gmail.com"
]
}
}
}
},
"expires": 1469212029
}
My controller looks like this:
angular.module('myApp').controller('ChatCtrl', function($scope, user,
Ref, $firebaseArray, $timeout) {
console.dir('user: ' + JSON.stringify(user));
// synchronize a read-only, synchronized array of events, limit to most recent 10
$scope.events = $firebaseArray(Ref.child('events').limitToLast(10));
// display any errors
$scope.events.$loaded().catch(alert);
// provide a method for adding a event
$scope.addEvent = function(newEvent) {
if (newEvent) {
// push a event to the end of the array
$scope.events.$add({
title: newEvent.title,
location: newEvent.location,
createdBy: user.uid,
createdAt: Firebase.ServerValue.TIMESTAMP
})
// display any errors
.catch(alert);
}
};
function alert(msg) {
$scope.err = msg;
$timeout(function() {
$scope.err = null;
}, 5000);
}
});
This is what the users and events look like in firebase:

To get the results that you're looking for, try using an angularjs filter.
In you controller add a function called
$scope.filterByUID = function(event) {
if (event.createdBy === user.uid) {
return true;
}
return false;
}
This function will act as a filter that only let's through events that were created the current user by comparing the event's createdBy to the user's uid.
Then change this line in your html
<tr scope="row" ng-repeat="event in events | reverse" >
To
<tr scope="row" ng-repeat="event in events | reverse | filter:filterByUID" >
This tells angularjs that you want to have your items filtered with the filter we defined in the controller.
Edit: Here's a reference on using custom filters: AngularJS : Custom filters and ng-repeat

trying to display json data with angularjs ng-repeat not working

I've seen so many ways to do this, but most are pretty old and I want to make sure I'm doing this correctly. Right now, the way I'm using isn't working and I feel like I'm missing something.
I'm getting the JSON back fine, I just need to get it to display in a table after I click the button.
Here is the JSON. This is how I'm going to get it from our server, I can't add any "var JSON =" or add any scope like "$scope.carrier" to the data, unless there's a way to add it after I've fetched the data.
{
"carrier":
[
{
"entity": "carrier",
"id": 1,
"parentEntity": "ORMS",
"value": "Medica"
}, {
"entity": "carrier",
"id": 2,
"parentEntity": "ORMS",
"value": "UHG"
}, {
"entity": "carrier",
"id": 3,
"parentEntity": "ORMS",
"value": "Optum"
}, {
"entity": "carrier",
"id": 4,
"parentEntity": "ORMS",
"value": "Insight"
}, {
"entity": "carrier",
"id": 5,
"parentEntity": "ORMS",
"value": "Insight"
}
]
}
Here is the app.js file to bring back the JSON data:
var app = angular.module('myTestApp', []);
app.controller('myController', ['$scope', '$http', function($scope, $http) {
var url = 'test.json';
$scope.clickButton = function() {
$http.get(url).success(function(data) {
console.log(data);
});
}
}]);
And then of course the HTML:
<div class="col-lg-12 text-center">
<button type=button class="btn btn-primary load" ng-click="clickButton()">Click!</button>
<table class="">
<tbody ng-repeat="carrier in carriers">
<tr>
<td>
<h3 class="">{{ module.entity }}</h3>
<h3 class="">{{ module.id }}</h3>
<h3 class="">{{ module.parentEntity }}</h3>
<h3 class="">{{ module.value }}</h3>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</div>
I'm also wondering if I can use the ng-grid to put this in a table. I know they just upgraded it to ui grid so I'm not sure if this is still a feasible approach.
Also, I'm not getting errors, the data just won't display in the table right now. All I know is its returning the data properly, just not displaying in the table.
Any help is appreciated.

I looked at your plunker seems like you need to:
add angular script
wire the app and the controller
your variable in the repeater is wrong, I change it
take a look to this fixed plunker:
http://plnkr.co/edit/TAjnUCMOBxQTC6lNJL8j?p=preview
$scope.clickButton = function() {
$http.get(url).success(function(returnValue) {
alert(JSON.stringify(returnValue.carrier));
$scope.carriers = returnValue.carrier;
});
}

You never assign the value of the returned array to $scope.carriers.
At the line where you say console.log(data); add this:
$scope.carriers = data.data;
Here is the updated clickButton function (with a variable name change to reduce confusion):
$scope.clickButton = function() {
$http.get(url).success(function(returnValue) {
$scope.carriers = returnValue.data;
});
};

Nested JSON not display in ng-repeat

I'm having trouble accessing the nested JSON using the ng-repeat directives. I know it is working because the not nested part of the JSON object is displaying.
Here is a plunker of my code: http://plnkr.co/edit/V2iURMa8t7vG9AqDFMOf?p=preview
JavaScript:
var app = angular.module("app", [ ]);
app.controller("AppTest", function($scope){
$scope.currentInfo=[{"id":0,"article":"JavaScript Conquers the World","publisher":"Daily Times","meta_data":{"comments":4}},
{"id":1,"article":"The Problem with Foobar","publisher":"New York Times","meta_data":{"comments":27}}];
$scope.tableInfo=[{"name":"id","dataType":"Integer","isEditable":false},
{"name":"article","dataType":"String","isEditable":true},
{"name":"publisher","dataType":"String","isEditable":false},
{"name":"meta_data.comments","dataType":"Integer","isEditable":false}];
});
HTML:
<body ng-app="app" ng-controller="AppTest as app"
<table>
<tbody ng-repeat="anotherItem in currentInfo">
<tr>
<td ng-repeat="item in tableInfo">{{anotherItem[item.name]}}</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
</body>

Another solution that is better is to add function in the controller that will resolve the value for you. The issue with your solution is that you need Angular to resolve meta_data.comments, but it is treating it as the string that is used in the array lookup since it has already resolved item.name.
$scope.resolveLookup = function(object, lookup) {
var depth = lookup.split('.').length;
var currentObj = object;
for(var x=0; x<depth; x++) {
currentObj = currentObj[lookup.split('.')[x]];
}
return currentObj;
};
Then change the HTML to look like:
<td ng-repeat="item in tableInfo">{{resolveLookup(anotherItem,item.name)}}</td>
Here is the Plunker: http://plnkr.co/edit/RVd2ncwstyQtCtdhcC9U?p=preview

The issue is that it is putting 'metadata.comments' in the [] and it doesn't realize that it needs to be resolved again by angular. I can't think of fix without changing the data structure of your 'tableInfo' object.
Here is how I would do it.
Change table info to:
$scope.tableInfo = [{
"name": ["id"],
"dataType": "Integer",
"isEditable": false
}, {
"name": ["article"],
"dataType": "String",
"isEditable": true
}, {
"name": ["publisher"],
"dataType": "String",
"isEditable": false
}, {
"name": ["meta_data", "comments"],
"dataType": "Integer",
"isEditable": false
}];
Change your HTML to:
<td ng-repeat="item in tableInfo" ng-if="item.name.length==1">{{anotherItem[item.name[0]]}}</td>
<td ng-repeat="item in tableInfo" ng-if="item.name.length==2">{{anotherItem[item.name[0]][item.name[1]]}}</td>

Big nested JSON data and updating DOM when changed

I'm dealing with pretty big amounts of json and the data is something like this:
{
"name": "John Smith",
"age": 32,
"employed": true,
"address": {
"street": "701 First Ave.",
"city": "Sunnyvale, CA 95125",
"country": "United States"
},
"children": [
{
"name": "Richard",
"age": 7,
"field": {
"field": "value"
}
}
]
}
Whenever I change anything I get a new response which is somewhat similar to the previous data, but where new properties might have been added, stuff might have been removed and so on.
My testcode is something like this (don't mind the infinite amount of bad practices here):
<div data-viewmodel="whatevz">
<span data-bind="text: stuff['nested-thingy']"></span>
</div>
<script>
function vm() {
var self = this;
this.stuff = ko.observable();
require(["shop/app"], function (shop) {
setTimeout(function () {
self.stuff(shop.stuff);
}, 1200);
});
}
ko.applyBindings(new vm(), $("[data-viewmodel]")[0]);
</script>
I want stuff['nested-thingy'] to be updated whenever stuff is updated. How do I do this without all kinds of mapping and making everything observable?

You should only have to update your biding:
<div data-viewmodel="whatevz">
<span data-bind="text: stuff()['nested-thingy']"></span>
</div>
You have to access the value of the observable with the (). That returns your object and then you can access it. The content of the binding is still dependent on the observable stuff therefore it should update whenever stuff is updated.
At least my fiddle is working that way: http://jsfiddle.net/delixfe/guM4X/
<div data-bind="if: stuff()">
<span data-bind="text: stuff()['nested-thingy']"></span>
</div>
<button data-bind="click: add1">1</button>
<button data-bind="click: add2">2</button>
Note the data-bind="if: stuff(). That is necessary if your stuff's content is empty at binding time or later...
function Vm() {
var self = this;
self.stuff = ko.observable();
self.add1 = function () {
self.stuff({'nested-thingy': "1"});
};
self.add2 = function () {
self.stuff({'nested-thingy': "2"});
};
}
ko.applyBindings(new Vm());

Any reason you can't use the mapping plugin to deal with the mapping for you? You can use the copy option for the properties that you don't want to be made observables:
var mapping = {
'copy': ["propertyToCopy"]
}
var viewModel = ko.mapping.fromJS(data, mapping);
