I would like to use tabs to hide and show items in an ng-repeat. Is it possible to change the value of a scope like so?
<a ng-click="packageType = '1'">Package 1</a><a ng-click="packageType ='2'">Package 2</a><a ng-click="packageType = '3'">Package 3</a>
<div ng-repeat="item in packages" ng-show="packageType >=item.packageID">
{{item.name}}</div>
and the scope:
$scope.packages = [...{ "name": "some name",
"packageID": 1}...]
Where packageID can be 1, 2 or 3?
Here's the code that does exactly what your asking

I would write a function that encapsulates what you want to happen on click. That would make it easier to understand.
So I assume packages is an array and what you posted is not your complete code.
You will want to change your ng-show to say
ng-show="packageType == item.packageID"
this will only show the div if the packageID is the same as the package type. Your ng-click should work fine. You will want to set a default value for packageType somewhere in your controller however so something shows initially
You code has a few problems:
You first ng-click is does not have a closing quote.
<a ng-click="packageType = '1'>Package 1</a>
You set packageType to a string when it is a number later:
packageType ='2'
$scope.packages = { "name": "some name",
"packageID": 1}
You don't need {{}} in the ng-show
ng-show="packageType >={{item.packageID}}"
I think you meant for packages to be an array instead of an object:
$scope.packages = { "name": "some name",
"packageID": 1}
Example of how to do it is below. I set it to show on the second and third links :
(function() {
'use strict';
angular
.module('exampleApp', [])
.controller('ExampleController', ExampleController);
function ExampleController($scope) {
var vm = this;
$scope.packageType = 1;
$scope.packages = [{
"name": "some name1",
"packageID": 2
}, {
"name": "some name2",
"packageID": 2
}, {
"name": "some name3",
"packageID": 2
}, {
"name": "some name4",
"packageID": 3
}, {
"name": "some name5",
"packageID": 3
}, {
"name": "some nam6",
"packageID": 3
}];
}
ExampleController.$inject = ['$scope'];
})();
