I have a filter in my controller like this:
$scope.LegEntQueue = $filter('filter')(legEncoderQueue, {FileAppCD: 'ENT'}).length;
Where I am counting the results of an array called legEncoderQueue
based on a property called FileAppCD
if it has the value of ENT
This works perfectly, but is there a way to have it fuzzy search and select anything that has ENT
in the value? Such as ENT-M-And
and ENT-M-iOS
?
Thank you all for your input, it took me a moment to realize my ignorance, thinking I could just use some built in angular filter to do what just plain javascript could do.
My Solution, was to create a function:
$scope.regexCount = function(array, feild, pattern) {
var count = 0;
for (index = 0; index < array.length; index++) {
if (pattern.test(array[index][feild])) {
count ++;
}
}
return count;
};
And then pass in my parameters.
$scope.LegEntQueue = $scope.regexCount(legEncoderQueue, 'FileAppCD', /ENT.*/);
