eval on expression of ngrepeat

Question

I would like to access a scope expression, that is assigned to a variable, through a ng-repeat expression.

So, what I wanna do is something like that:

ng-repeat="variable in eval(key)"

Unfortunately it is not valid. How can I workaround this?

Answer 1

This would work:

HTML:

<div ng-controller="MyCtrl">
    <div ng-repeat="item in $eval(key)">{{item}}</div>
</div>

JS:

function MyCtrl($scope) {
    $scope.key = "items";
    $scope.items = [1,2,3];
}
