I've read a lot of other posts on this and they all tend to describe uniquely complicated solutions. I just want to filter a list of items based on the checkboxes I click (I need an 'AND' Filter & be able to see all items initially until a checkbox is clicked).
This seems like it should be a piece of cake with AngularJS, But I'm just not getting it. how can I modify my code to make the filtering work?
Here is my incomplete JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/mromrell/qx3cD/1/

Thank you in Advance!
<div ng-controller="MyCtrl">
<li class="no-decoration" ng-repeat="tech in technologyArray">
<label>
<input type="checkbox" ng-model="strict" />{{tech}}</label>
</li>
<hr>
<div ng-repeat="portfolioItem in portfolioArray | filter:strict" class="ng-scope">
<h3>{{portfolioItem.name}}</h3>
</div>
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', []);
function MyCtrl($scope) {
$scope.technologyArray = ["HTML", "CSS", "Django", "Python", "AngularJS", "Javascript", "3rd party Payment API", "3rd party Libraries", "Jquery", "RestfulAPI", "AAAAAHH", "NodeJS", "Mongo", "Express", "Jade", "Wordpress", "MySQL", "Joomla", "Magento", "Jira"]
$scope.portfolioArray = [{
"id": "1",
"name": "Storm Pig",
"technology": ["HTML", "CSS", "Django", "Python", "AngularJS", "Javascript", "3rd party Payment API", "3rd party Libraries"]
}, {
"id": "2",
"name": "Placer",
"technology": ["HTML", "CSS", "Django", "Python", "AngularJS", "Javascript", "Jquery"]
}, {
"id": "3",
"name": "Custom Proposal App",
"technology": ["RestfulAPI", "AAAAAHH", "AngularJS", "HTML", "CSS", "Javascript", "NodeJS", "Mongo", "Express", "Jade"]
}, {
"id": "4",

}, {
"id": "5",

}
I think I have solved it in a fairly simple way: http://jsfiddle.net/qx3cD/4/
The problem you are having is that checkboxes work on a true/false value system, while a basic filter is looking to match data. So you need to create some sort of custom filter to map the checkbox states to the data itself. I used this basic function, which simply compares checkbox states to their corresponding name, and if they are associated with the tech list.
$scope.myFunc = function(a) {
for(tech in $scope.technologyArray){
var t = $scope.technologyArray[tech];
if(t.on && a.technology.indexOf(t.name) > -1){
return true;
}
}
};
EDIT: Updated
I have updated the fiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/qx3cD/9/
Basically two things were done. The first was that the checkboxes were watched with ng-change
, so that all results were shown when no checkboxes were selected. The second was that the filter function was updated to only show items that contain all of the selected technologies.
