AngularJS ng-repeat filtering with an OR-statement

Question

So I have a dataset of companies stored in a variable in a controller. ``` $scope.companies = [ { name: "first company", type: ["a", "b"] }, { name: "second company", type: ["b"] }, { name: "third company", type: ["c"] } ] ``` Then i have my list where I want to list all companies of either a or b. I thought sending and array would work as an or-statement. Turns out it's more like an and-statement. ```

{{company.name}}

``` The code above would list "first company" while I would like it to list both the "first company" and the "second company". I know I could manipulate the $scope.companies dataset from within the controller, but I'd like to know if there's any "native" way to achieve this first. Best regards! // Richard

Accepted Answer

Your only options is to use a filter using a function: ```

{{company.name}}

``` Where ``` $scope.customFunction = function(item){ /* true if you want item, false if not */ } ``` Source: http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng.filter:filter#parameters
