AngularJs How to filter ngRepeat with another array elements

Question

Is there any option to filter from $scope.items where the ID exist in the array $scope.myitems ?

ng-repeat="item in items | filter:{item.id == myitems}

angular.module('myapp', [])
  .controller("mycontroller", function($scope) {
    $scope.items = [
      {
        "id": 1,
        "name": "Melodie"
      }, {
        "id": 2,
        "name": "Chastity"
      }, {
        "id": 3,
        "name": "Jescie"
      }, {
        "id": 4,
        "name": "Hamish"
      }, {
        "id": 5,
        "name": "Germaine"
      }, {
        "id": 6,

It might be easier to create a custom filter in another file, and then call it. That way you can do as much complex logic as you want with one small filter declaration. – Rheinland

Answer 1

Your problem is that you are trying to get a match on a sub-property of the object(s) you are iterating over.

From the docs:

Note that a named property will match properties on the same level only, while the special $ property will match properties on the same level or deeper. E.g. an array item like {name: {first: 'John', last: 'Doe'}} will not be matched by {name: 'John'}, but will be matched by {$: 'John'}.

I would recommend you will make your custom filter. I have changed your code by implementing custom filter, working copy of your requirement.

<li class="list-group-item" ng-repeat='item in items | customArray:myitems:"id"'>{{item.name}}</li>

Use this excellent filter from this answer :

https://mcmap.net/q/593572/-is-it-possible-to-filter-angular-js-by-containment-in-another-array

.filter('inArray', function($filter){
    return function(list, arrayFilter, element){
        if(arrayFilter){
            return $filter("filter")(list, function(listItem){
                return arrayFilter.indexOf(listItem[element]) != -1;
            });
        }
    };
});

angular.forEach($scope.items, function (v, k) { 
   console.log($scope.myitems[v.id - 1]);
   $scope.myitems[v.id- 1].name = v.name;
}, $scope.myitems);

Just for some hint. Hope helps

Tha above example given by Kashif Mustafa perfectly works. The only change we had to do is, parse the ids into integers from string.

cshtml:

    <div ng-repeat="e in AllEntities | customArray:SelectedEntities:'id'">{{ e.label }}</div>

controller:

     var eIds = detail.entityIds;
     var eArray = eIds.split(",");

     if (eArray.length > 0) {
         $scope.showEntities = true;
         $scope.showNone = false;
         for (var i = 0; i < eArray.length; i++) {
            $scope.SelectedEntities.push(parseInt(eArray[i]));
           }
     }

filter:

(your controller).filter('customArray', function ($filter) {
    return function (list, arrayFilter, element) {
        if (arrayFilter) {
            return $filter("filter")(list, function (listItem) {
                return arrayFilter.indexOf(listItem[element]) != -1;
            });
        }
    };
});
