Angular JS break ForEach

Question

The angular.forEach loop can't break on a condition match.

My personal advice is to use a NATIVE FOR loop instead of angular.forEach.

The NATIVE FOR loop is around 90% faster then other for loops.

USE FOR loop IN ANGULAR:

var numbers = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5];

for (var i = 0, len = numbers.length; i < len; i++) {
  if (numbers[i] === 1) {
    console.log('Loop is going to break.'); 
    break;
  }
  console.log('Loop will continue.');
}

There's no way to do this. See https://github.com/angular/angular.js/issues/263. Depending on what you're doing you can use a boolean to just not going into the body of the loop. Something like:

var keepGoing = true;
angular.forEach([0,1,2], function(count){
  if(keepGoing) {
    if(count == 1){
      keepGoing = false;
    }
  }
});

please use some or every instances of ForEach,

Array.prototype.some:
some is much the same as forEach but it break when the callback returns true

Array.prototype.every:
every is almost identical to some except it's expecting false to break the loop.

Example for some:

var ary = ["JavaScript", "Java", "CoffeeScript", "TypeScript"];

ary.some(function (value, index, _ary) {
    console.log(index + ": " + value);
    return value === "JavaScript";
});

Example for every:

var ary = ["JavaScript", "Java", "CoffeeScript", "TypeScript"];

ary.every(function(value, index, _ary) {
    console.log(index + ": " + value);
    return value.indexOf("Script") > -1;
});

Use the Array Some Method

 var exists = [0,1,2].some(function(count){
      return count == 1
 });

exists will return true, and you can use this as a variable in your function

if(exists){
    console.log('this is true!')
}

Array Some Method - Javascript

As far as I know, Angular doesn't provide such a function. You may want to use underscore's find() function for this (it's basically a forEach which breaks out of the loop once the function returns true).
