How to iterate through JavaScript Maps using ng-re

问题:

I'm trying to use JavaScript Maps in ng-repeat angular's directive while searching I found that it could be done this way :

<ul ng-controller="MyCtrl">
    <li ng-repeat='(key, value) in {"First Name":"John", "Last Name":"Smith"}'>
        <span>Key: {{key}}, value: {{value}}</span>
    </li>
</ul>

but this works only with normal JSON objects, when I create a real Map the following way, it doesn't work.

I have this controller for example

function MyCtrl($scope) {
    $scope.items = new map();
    $scope.items.set('adam',{'age':10,'fav':'doogie'});
    $scope.items.set('amalie',{'age':12});
}

and this html code

<ul>
    <li ng-repeat='(key, value) in items'>
        <span>Key: {{key}}, value: {{value}}</span>
    </li>
</ul>

回答1:

since ng-repeat not support Map iteration, you could use a custom filter fromMap like below

angular.module('app', []).filter('fromMap', function() {
  return function(input) {
    var out = {};
    input.forEach((v, k) => out[k] = v);
    return out;
  };
}).controller('ctrl',function ($scope) {
    $scope.items = new Map();
    $scope.items.set('adam',{'age':10,'fav':'doogie'});
    $scope.items.set('amalie',{'age':12});
    
    $scope.logAdamAge = function() { console.log($scope.items.get("adam").age) };
});

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.23/angular.min.js"></script>
<div ng-app="app" ng-controller="ctrl">
  <div>with Map</div>
  <ul>
    <li ng-repeat="(key, value) in items | fromMap">
      <div>{{key}}</div>
      <div ng-repeat="(k, v) in value">{{k}}: <input ng-model="value[k]" /></div>
    </li>
  </ul>
  <pre>{{items | fromMap}}</pre>
  <button ng-click="logAdamAge()">log Adam age from Map</button>
</div>

this won't work because a javascript Map is an iterable object (you can loop over only through the entries iterator, calling a next() each time) and is not directly supported by angular ng-repeat.

what you can do if you have a pre-existent code is to transform the iterable object (map) to a plain array

$scope.itemsToArray = Array.from($scope.items.entries()); 

this will make your iterable object an array , at this point you can loop over in the standard way

<ul>  
  <li ng-repeat='item in itemsToArray'>
     <span>Key: {{item[0]}}, value: {{item[1]}}</span>
  </li>
</ul>

Although I like Jag's answer, I've built a more extensive snippet with different implementations to achieve the same, and I took out the most of ES6 arrow functions and spread operator to implement the filter as a one-liner: .filter('fromMap', () => mapObject => [...mapObject])

One setting a watcher and even unsuscribing to that watcher.

Here is how you can implement ng-repeat on Map class objects:

angular.module('ui.bootstrap.demo', ['ngAnimate', 'ngSanitize', 'ui.bootstrap']);
angular.module('ui.bootstrap.demo')
  .filter('fromMap', () => mapObject => [...mapObject])
  .controller('myCtrl', function($scope, $log) {
    $scope.myMap = new Map([
      ['key1', 'value1'],
      ['key2', 'value2'],
      ['key3', 'value3'],
      ['key4', 'value4'],
    ]);
    const unsuscribeWatcher1 = $scope.$watch(() => $scope.myMap.size, (newVal, oldVal) => {
      if (newVal !== oldVal) {
        //Splicing and pushing keeps the reference to the Array instead of reassigning.
        $scope.myLoopedMap.splice(0);
        $scope.myLoopedMap.push(...[...$scope.mySet].filter(k => $scope.myMap.has(k)).map(k => $scope.myMap.get(k)))
        $scope.myArrFromMap.splice(0);
        $scope.myArrFromMap.push(...[...$scope.myMap])
      }
    })
    const unsuscribeWatcher2 = $scope.$watch(() => $scope.mySet.size, (newVal, oldVal) => {
      if (newVal !== oldVal) {
        $scope.myLoopedMap.splice(0);
        $scope.myLoopedMap.push([...$scope.mySet].filter(k => $scope.myMap.has(k)).map(k => $scope.myMap.get(k)));
      }
    })
    $scope.mySet = new Set(['key1', 'key3']);
    $scope.mySet.add('not in the Map')
    $scope.mySet.add('key7')
    $scope.myKeys = ['key1', 'key3'];
    $scope.myArr = [
      ['key1', 'value1'],
      ['key2', 'value2'],
      ['key3', 'value3'],
      ['key4', 'value4'],
    ];
    $scope.myArrFromMap = [...$scope.myMap]
    $scope.myLoopedMap = [...$scope.mySet].filter(k => $scope.myMap.has(k)).map(k => $scope.myMap.get(k))
    $scope.myLoopedMap2 = [...$scope.myKeys].reduce((acc, k) => {
      return $scope.myMap.has(k) ? acc.concat($scope.myMap.get(k)) : acc;
    }, [])

    // added to the map later
    setTimeout(() => {
      $scope.$apply(() => {
        // this will be updated as we are watching the Map
        $scope.myMap.set('key7', 'value7')
      })
      setTimeout(() => {
        unsuscribeWatcher1(); // this breaks the watching of the Map
        $scope.$apply(() => {
          // this will not be updated as the watcher is not working anymore
          $scope.myMap.set('key8', 'value8')
        })
      }, 3000)
    }, 3000)


  });
