AngularFire used to have a orderByPriority filter

Question

From Google result it looks like AngularFire used to have a orderByPriority filter. But I cannot find this in the current AngularFire api docs: https://www.firebase.com/docs/web

Answer 1

There is no longer a need for orderByPriority since you can utilize a synchronized array, which is already implicitly ordered.

So in ancient days, you would do something like:

$scope.data = $firebase(ref);

<div ng-repeat="item in data | orderByPriority" />

In not so ancient times (i.e. 0.8.x or greater) you would simply choose an array format:

$scope.data = $firebase(ref).$asArray();

<div ng-repeat="item in data" />
