在angularjs控制器中从json获取字符串数组

Question

I am trying to fetch string arrays from a json file and return the data back to a variable to form a word filer list, but "uncaught syntax error" kept showing can anyone help? Here comes my code:

    var filterWords = $http.get('word.json').success(function(res) {
      return angular.fromJson(res.data);
    });

    $scope.filterWord = function($string) {
         var wRegExp = new RegExp(filterWords.join("|"), "gi");
         return wRegExp.test($string);
    };

Thanks in advance!

You don't have to do the angular.fromJson part, AngularJS does that for you. res.data will contain an object parsed from JSON if the result is JSON.

In the line var wRegExp = new RegExp(filterWords.join("|"), "gi"); you are not waiting for the result of filterWords , so you are calling join("|") on an HTTP promise. I'm not sure what the structure of your code is since I can only see the two lines you've shown, but perhaps you meant to set a variable in the success handler? Or have the success handler in the filterWord function?
