I\'ve created this fiddle to show my issue...

I\'m passing a newly created array to a directive, and everything is working out jus
That error is because your directive is not able to interpret the array as an array, Try this:
<body ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="ctrl1">
<test-dir fam-people='people'> </test-dir>
</body>
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', []);
myApp.directive('testDir', function() {
return { restrict: 'E'
, scope: { famPeople: '=' }
, template: "<ol> <li ng-repeat='p in famPeople'> {{p}}"
};
});
Controller and directive:
myApp.controller("ctrl1",function($scope){
$scope.people=[1,4,6];
});
EDIT
or you could pass it in as an attribute and parse it to an array:
<body ng-app="myApp" >
<test-dir fam-people='[1,4,6]'> </test-dir>
</body>
Directive:
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', []);
myApp.directive('testDir', function() {
return { restrict: 'E',
//scope: { famPeople: '=' },
template: "<ol> <li ng-repeat='p in people track by $index'> {{p}}",
link:function(scope, element, attrs){
scope.people=JSON.parse(attrs.famPeople);
}
};
});
See fiddle.
JSON parse doesn't work as effective when the array contains string.
For example:
<file-handler fh-services="['BOX','DROPBOX']"></file-handler>
In the directive you can use scope.$eval
to convert what appears in the attribute to an array.
scope.$eval(attrs.fhServices)
what about:
<body ng-app="myApp">
<test-dir fam-people='1;4;6'> </test-dir>
<test-dir fam-people='2;1;0'> </test-dir>
</body>
and
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', []);
myApp.directive('testDir', function() {
return { restrict: 'E',
//scope: { famPeople: '=' },
template: "<ol> <li ng-repeat='p in people track by $index'> {{p}}",
link:function(scope, element, attrs){
scope.people= attrs.famPeople.split(';');
}
};
});
cleanest solution?
