I have a multidimensional associative array.
this.items = ko.observableArray([
{ name: "name1", viewable: true, children: [
{ name: "name1-1", viewable: true, children: []},
{ name: "name1-2", viewable: false, children: []}
] },
{ name: "name2", viewable: false, children: [] },
{ name: "name3", viewable: true, children: [
{ name: "name3-1", viewable: true, children: []},
] },
{ name: "name4", viewable: true, children: [] }
]);
The goal is to loop through this array and print out only the values that have 'viewable' set to true.
I have this working using a bunch of if and foreach statements, but the code is starting to get out of hand. This example only covers 2 levels buy my array can get up to 5 levels deep, so this code is going to multiply and get ugly really quick.
<ul data-bind="foreach: items">
<!-- ko if: viewable -->
<li data-bind="text: name"></li>
<!-- ko foreach: children -->
<!-- ko if: viewable -->
<li data-bind="text: name"></li>
<!-- /ko -->
<!-- /ko -->
<!-- /ko -->
</ul>
So is there an easier/better way to loop through the entire array?
