Can I group by multiple fields using Angular-Filter?

Solved angularjs group-by angular-filters

I'm using Angular-Filter's groupBy filter.

Example from GitHub:

$scope.players = [
  {name: 'Gene', team: 'alpha'},
  {name: 'George', team: 'beta'},
  {name: 'Steve', team: 'gamma'},
  {name: 'Paula', team: 'beta'},
  {name: 'Scruath', team: 'gamma'}
];

<ul>
  <li ng-repeat="(key, value) in players | groupBy: 'team'">
    Group name: {{ key }}
    <ul>
      <li ng-repeat="player in value">
        player: {{ player.name }}
      </li>
    </ul>
  </li>
</ul>

So, the example groups the players collection by team. Imagine there's an age property for every player object:

$scope.players = [
  {name: 'Gene', team: 'alpha', age: 19},
  {name: 'George', team: 'beta', age: 19},
  {name: 'Steve', team: 'gamma', age: 23},
  {name: 'Paula', team: 'beta', age: 23},
  {name: 'Scruath', team: 'gamma', age: 23}
];

I want to group by team and age. How can I do that?

Have you tried just adding another groupBy? – Threepiece 25/3, 2016 at 16:21

What are expected results? What have you tried? Seems like a nested groupBy would do what you need – Timbre 25/3, 2016 at 16:23

Follow the example of multiple fields

angular.module('app',['angular.filter'])
  .controller('MainController', function($scope) { 
    $scope.players = [
      {name: 'Gene', team: 'alpha', age: 19},
      {name: 'George', team: 'beta', age: 19},
      {name: 'Steve', team: 'gamma', age: 23},
      {name: 'Paula', team: 'beta', age: 23},
      {name: 'Scruath', team: 'gamma', age: 23}
    ];
 });

How do you access the multiple key's separately in your html? Key seems to become a string of "team,age" do I need to split that? {{key.team}} is undefined. etc. – Hallo 23/12, 2017 at 9:3

To answer my own comment: {{value[0].team}} and {{value[0].age}} will do the trick. With a groupby you should be able to count on at least one row per "team" and "age" (or group) existing, so no need to check count > 0. Far from elegant but it should work and be reliable. Wish the key would become json or something though when using multiple fields for the key. – Hallo 23/12, 2017 at 9:14

try the following i am assuming you want groups to be created using multiple values as criteria

ng-repeat="(key, value) in players | groupBy: '[team,age]'"
