Add new values to attribute of the same object

Question

I have a button that needs to add some values to an object attribute. The problem I have found is that I'm creating new objects on every click. And what I need is to add new values to a specific attribute of a specific object.

I'm getting this

Object { id=0,  title="Rolling Stones",  sessionsBegin="1443564000000"}
Object { id=0,  title="Rolling Stones",  sessionsBegin="1443564000001"}
Object { id=0,  title="Rolling Stones",  sessionsBegin="1443564000002"}

What I need to generate is this

Object { id=0,  title="Rolling Stones",sessionsBegin="1443564000000, 1443564000001,1443564000002"}

This on the controller part:

 $scope.addItem = function(indexItem, title) {
          $scope.cart = {
              "id" : indexItem,
              "title" : title
          }
          if ($scope.cart.id==indexItem){
              $scope.cart.sessionsBegin=$scope.sessions[indexItem].date;
             console.log($scope.cart);
          }
        }

This on the partial view side:

<div class="row" >
  <div class="large-6 columns" >
  <div class="panel">
    <div ng-repeat="session in sessions">
     {{event.id}} Date:  {{session.date }} &nbsp
     Availability: {{session.availability}} &nbsp
       <a ng-click="addItem($index, session.title);" ng-show="addMore">ADD </a>
    </div>
  </div>  
  </div> 
</div>

Answer 1

You need to concat a string to your current value, like that:

// Add a comma if needed:
$scope.cart.sessionsBegin += ($scope.cart.sessionsBegin) ? ', ' : ''; 

// and then add the value itself:
$scope.cart.sessionsBegin += $scope.sessions[indexItem].date;

Btw. usually you'd want a list of those sessionsBegin values to be an array - it will be much easier to work with. In that case I'd suggest:

if (!$scope.cart.sessionsBegin) {
    $scope.cart.sessionsBegin = [];
}
$scope.cart.sessionsBegin.push($scope.sessions[indexItem].date);
