Iterate two arrays in *ngFor— IONIC2/Angular2

Question

I have stored values in two arrays to iterate in a single ion-list . Billerstatusstate and Billerstatusnamelst are the two arrays.

I have tried the following to iterate

<ion-list ion-item *ngFor="let stat of Billerstatusstate;let bil of Billerstatusnamelst "  >

  {{bil}} <button round>{{stat}}</button>

</ion-list>

and

<ion-list ion-item *ngFor="let stat of Billerstatusstate" *ngFor="let bil of Billerstatusnamelst "  >

  {{bil}} <button round>{{stat}}</button>

</ion-list>

Its taking first iterated value for both local variable.

Is there something am i missing ??

is there anyother way to store both values in single array and split it in View side using ngFor..

Answer 1

I could create a pipe to "merge" your two arrays into a single one and then you can iterate over this new array.

Here is a sample:

@Pipe({
  name: 'merge'
})
export class MergePipe {
  transform(arr1, arr2) {
    var arr = [];
    arr1.forEach((elt, i) => {
      arr.push({ state: elt, name: arr2[i] });
    });
  }
}

And use it this way:

<ion-list ion-item *ngFor="let elt of Billerstatusstate | merge:Billerstatusnamelst"  >
  {{elt.name}} <button round>{{elt.state}}</button>
</ion-list>    

Answer 2

Why instead of doing this

<ion-list ion-item *ngFor="let stat of Billerstatusstate;let bil of Billerstatusnamelst "  >

  {{bil}} <button round>{{stat}}</button>

</ion-list>

don't you create a single array in your code:

// I'm assuming they both have the same size
for (var _i = 0; _i < Billerstatusstate.length; _i++) {
    this.singleArray.push({
                         stat: this.Billerstatusstate[_i],
                         bil: this.Billerstatusnamelst[_i] 
                        });
}

And then in your page:

<ion-list ion-item *ngFor="let item of singleArray;"  >

  {{item.bil}} <button round>{{item.stat}}</button>

</ion-list>

Answer 3

You can leverage the index of the ngFor directive to achieve this.

<ion-list ion-item *ngFor="let stat of Billerstatusstate; let i=index">

  {{Billerstatusnamelst[i]}} <button round>{{stat}}</button>

</ion-list>

Answer 4

I have followed this approach.. I have stored values in single array instead of two arrays as it comes from a single source.

 this.Billerstatusnamelst.push({name:"testname",Status:"Failure"});

In HTML part

 <ion-list ion-item *ngFor="let bil of Billerstatusnamelst "  >

  {{bil.name}} <button round>{{bil.Status}}</button>

</ion-list>

Its worked for me..

Multiple array in single array am using

    this.termlist = this.result.termlst.$values;
    this.disableterm = this.result.disableterms.$values;
    this.customlist = this.result.customgrplist.$values;

single array code

 this.totalarrayob =[ this.termlist,this.disableterm, this.customlist];

how can i call in html using *ngfor

<ion-col col-12 no-padding *ngFor="let list of totalarrayob;let k = index">
    <h6>lorem Ipsum</h6>
    <ion-list>
      <ion-item>
        <ion-label>I Term</ion-label>
        <ion-checkbox checked="false"></ion-checkbox>
        <ion-note item-right>
          25000
        </ion-note>
      </ion-item>
    </ion-list>
  </ion-col>
