AngularJS：如何构建具有多层深度数据的HTML表？

Question

I need to create a table from some data with multiple levels of arrays and sub-arrays. I have found some solutions to do this as long as I only have two levels of arrays, but none that would work with anything more than that.

For example, take the sample data below --

$scope.professors = [{
    'name': 'Albert Einstein',
    'classes': [{
        'name': 'Physics 101',
        'students': [{
            'name': 'Joe',
            'grade': 'B'
        }, {
            'name': 'Mary',
            'grade': 'A'
        }]
    }, {
        'name': 'Physics 201',
        'students': [{
            'name': 'Gunther',
            'grade': 'C'
        }, {
            'name': 'Hans',
            'grade': 'C'
        }]
    }]
}, {
    'name': 'Charles Darwin',
    'classes': [{
        'name': 'Biololgy 101',
        'students': [{
            'name': 'Danielle',
            'grade': 'A'
        }, {
            'name': 'Anne',
            'grade': 'A'
        }]
    }, {
        'name': 'Biology 201',
        'students': [{
            'name': 'Frida',
            'grade': 'A'
        }, {
            'name': 'Fritz',
            'grade': 'F'
        }]
    }]
}];

You have some professors each with some disciplines each in turn with some students enrolled. I want to create a table-report that show all professors along with all their disciplines and students and grades. In order to do this, I would need a table such as the one below --

<table>
    <tbody>
        <tr>
            <th rowspan="4">Albert Einstein</th>
            <th rowspan="2">Physics 101</th>
            <td>Joe</td>
            <td>B</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>Mary</td>
            <td>A</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <th rowspan="2">Physics 201</th>
            <td>Gunther</td>
            <td>C</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>Hans</td>
            <td>C</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <th rowspan="4">Charles Darwin</th>
            <th rowspan="2">Biology 101</th>
            <td>Danielle</td>
            <td>A</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>Anne</td>
            <td>A</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <th rowspan="2">Biology 201</th>
            <td>Frida</td>
            <td>A</td>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <td>Fritz</td>
            <td>F</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

ie

|------------------|-------------|----------|---|
| Albert Einstein  | Physics 101 | Joe      | B |
|                  |             | Mary     | A |
|                  | ------------|----------|---|
|                  | Physics 201 | Gunther  | C |
|                  |             | Hans     | C |
|------------------|-------------|----------|---|
| Charles Darwin   | Biology 101 | Danielle | A |
|                  |             | Anne     | A |
|                  |-------------|----------|---|
|                  | Biology 201 | Frida    | A |
|                  |             | Fritz    | F |
|------------------|-------------|----------|---|

The solutions I've found generate multiple tbody elements with ng-repeat for each professor (in this case) and then another ng-repeat on a tr for each "class" for that professor. Like --

<table>
    <tbody ng-repeat="prof in professors">
        <tr ng-repeat="c in prof.classes">
            <th ng-if="$first" rowspan="{{prof.classes.length}}">{{prof.name}}</th>
            <td>{{c.name}}</td>
        </tr>
    </tbody>
</table>

Others use ng-repeat-start and ng-repeat-end but none more than two levels deep. Is there a way to add one more level—in this case, the students—to this?

Answer 1

After much frustration and head scratching, I found a way to do it using ng-repeat-start

<table>
    <tbody>
        <tr ng-repeat-start="p in professors" ng-if="false"></tr>
        <tr ng-repeat-start="c in p.classes" ng-if="false"></tr>
        <tr ng-repeat="s in c.students">
            <th ng-if="$parent.$first && $first" rowspan="{{p.count}}">
                {{p.name}}
            </th>
            <th ng-if="$first" rowspan="{{c.students.length}}">{{c.name}}</th>
            <td>{{s.name}}</td>
            <td>{{s.grade}}</td>
        </tr>
        <tr ng-repeat-end ng-if="false"></tr> <!-- classes -->
        <tr ng-repeat-end ng-if="false"></tr> <!-- professors -->
    </tbody>
</table>

This solution generates valid HTML table markup. By using ng-if="false" on the ng-repeat-* elements, they iterate through the arrays but generate no actual element on the page. The only elements generated are the tr rows in s in c.students .

The other thing I needed to do is create a new property inside the professor objects named count that holds the total number of students enrolled in all the classes. I needed that for the rowspan and it's of course trivial to generate on the fly when I get data from the server.
