I'm trying to fill out a 2 column table out in AngularJS. I'm using ng-repeat directive to fill out the table, but it's not's working the way I'm planning. My $scope.items is:[Coors, Jameson, Bacardi, Corona] I want the table to look like this:
however, it looks like this:
I'm confused as to why the [$index+1] directive in the my script is only working in the actual text portion of the script (in parenthesis), while the div does not seem to properly displaying items[$index+1], and instead is displaying items[$index]. Here is my script:
<div class=row ng-repeat="item in items" ng-if="$index %2 ==0">
<div class="col col-50" ng-if="$index < items.length">
<item-card item="{{item[$index]}}"></item-card>
({{$index}})
</div>
<div class="col col-50" ng-if="$index +1 < items.length">
<item-card item="{{items[$index+1]}}"></item-card>
({{$index+1}})
</div>
</div>
Anyone know why this might not be working as intended?
Edit: Including is itemcard.html.
<div class = "card" >
<img id = "cardImage" ng-src= "data:image/jpeg;base64,{{item.image}}" width = "100%"/>
{{item.cartQuantity}}
<cardHeader>{{item.itemName}}</cardHeader><br>
<cardHeader ng-if= "item.paksize >1">{{item.paksize}} pack</cardHeader>
<button class="button" ng-click="addToCart(item)">+</button>
<button class="button" ng-click="decrementCart(item)">-</button>
</div>
What you're trying to do seems a little odd to me. Rather than trying to split the array of items
into even chunks of 2 columns with Directive Fu, might you consider using lodash.chunk
?
<script>
angular.module('example', [ ])
.run(function($scope){
$scope.items = _.chunk([ /* . . . */ ], 2);
});
</script>
<div ng-app="example">
<div class=row ng-repeat="chunk in items">
<div class="col col-50">
<item-card item="{{chunk[0]}}"></item-card>
({{$index}})
</div>
<div class="col col-50">
<item-card item="{{chunk[1]}}"></item-card>
({{$index+1}})
</div>
</div>
</div>
If you wanted to be really Angular about it (a pun!), you could register lodash.chunk
as a custom Filter instead:
<script>
angular.module('example', [ ])
.run(function($scope){
$scope.items = [ /* . . . */ ];
})
.filter('chunk', function(){
return _.chunk;
});
</script>
<div ng-app="example">
<div class=row ng-repeat="chunk in items | chunk:2">
<div class="col col-50">
<item-card item="{{chunk[0]}}"></item-card>
({{$index}})
</div>
<div class="col col-50">
<item-card item="{{chunk[1]}}"></item-card>
({{$index+1}})
</div>
</div>
</div>
