Splice or Remove list of elements from JSON Array

Question

I am having a JSON Array Output from REST API like this , I am displaying this items on the HTML using ng-repeat.

var searchresponse = [{
    "items": [{
        "employeeId": "ABC",
        "type": "D",
        "alive": "Yes"

    }, {
        "employeeId": "DEF",
        "type": "D",
        "alive": "Yes"

    }, {
        "employeeId": "NPK",
        "type": "D",
        "alive": "Yes"

    }, {
        "employeeId": "PKN",
        "type": "A",
        "alive": "Yes"
    }],
    "more": false
}];

when user tries to delete using selectall/single select i am calling a REST API to remove the employee id from the db . once i get a successful response i am planning to splice / remove the values that have been selected by the user from the VIEW. I would like to remove the following employeeid and their type,alive removed from the searchresponse

 var data1=["ABC","NPK"];

Whatever the data1 has corresponding details should be removed from the searchresponse

Answer 1

All you need is to eliminate each item from items array whose employeeId is in data1 ,using splice method.

• splice method.

• indexOf method

 var searchresponse = [{ "items": [{ "employeeId": "ABC", "type": "D", "alive": "Yes" }, { "employeeId": "DEF", "type": "D", "alive": "Yes" }, { "employeeId": "NPK", "type": "D", "alive": "Yes" }, { "employeeId": "PKN", "type": "A", "alive": "Yes" }], "more": false }]; var data1=["ABC","DEF"]; var items=searchresponse[0].items; var i=items.length; while (i--) { if(data1.indexOf(items[i].employeeId)!=-1){ items.splice(i,1); } } console.log(searchresponse[0].items);
