Protractor Search by row property using by.repeater and evaluate

Question

I'm trying to implement a search by row property using by.repeater and evaluate for e2e with ui-grid.

The idea is to map the result from by.repeater to an new object with the underneath object id I get from evaluate and the row so that I can do a filter by id on the new array of objects. Something like this:

return this.getGrid( gridId ).all( by.repeater('(rowRenderIndex, row) in  rowContainer.renderedRows track by $index') ).map(function(row, index){
        return {
            index: index,
            row: row,
            id: row.evaluate('row.entity.id') 
        };                
    }).then(function(maps){            
        return maps.find(function(e){
            return e.id === rowId;                   
        });  
    });    

The map function seems to hang when I use or return the row object. According to this https://github.com/angular/protractor/issues/392: Add map() function to element.all it should work but it doesn't. Any idea?

Thanks, David.

You can directly use filter() method to filter the rows based on any condition. look at below example.

return this.getGrid(gridId).all(by.repeater('(rowRenderIndex, row) in  rowContainer.renderedRows track by $index')).filter(function(row_element){
    return row_element.evaluate('row.entity.id').then(function(Current_rowid){
       return Current_rowid == rowId;
   })
}).first()
