ngRepeat Filter by deep property
If I have a complex object with objects as property values, how can I filter by one of the nested properties?
Can this be done with the OOB ng-repeat filter?
Data
{
Name: 'John Smith',
Manager: {
id: 123,
Name: 'Bill Lumburg'
}
}
ngRepeat
<li ng-repeat="e in emps | filter:Manager.Name">{{ e.Name }}</li>
You need to pass in the argument to filter by:
<input ng-model="filter.key">
<ul>
<li ng-repeat="e in list | filter: {Manager: {Name: filter.key}}">
{{e.Name}} (Manager: {{e.Manager.Name}})
</li>
</ul>
Example on Plunker
If you are filtering multiple properties then the syntax would be similar to below.
<ul>
<li ng-repeat="item in list | {filter: top_object_property_name: value, top_object_property_with_nested_objects_name: {nested_object_property_name: value}}">
...
</li>
</ul>
eg:
var employees = [name: 'John', roles: [{roleName: 'Manager'},{roleName: 'Supervisor'}]];
<li ng-repeat="staff in employees | {filter: name: 'John', roles: {roleName: 'Manager'}}">
...
</li>
