Filter AngularJS Array by another Array

Question

I need to filter an array of objects by another array of objects, which I am finding more difficult than I thought it would be.

$scope.ArrayMain = [{
  "LocationID": 1,
  "AdornmentID": 11,
  "ApplicabilityID": 111
},{
  "LocationID": 2,
  "AdornmentID": 22,
  "ApplicabilityID": 222
},{
  "LocationID": 3,
  "AdornmentID": 33,
  "ApplicabilityID": 333
},{
  "LocationID": 4,
  "AdornmentID": 44,
  "ApplicabilityID": 444
}];

var FiterByArray = [{
  "filterID": 1,
  "ApplicabilityID": 222
},{
  "FilterID": 2,
  "ApplicabilityID": 444
}];

I need to filter by the applicabilityID and return something similar to what is below...

$scope.filteredList = [{
  "LocationID": 1,
  "AdornmentID": 11,
  "ApplicabilityID": 111
},{
  "LocationID": 3,
  "AdornmentID": 33,
  "ApplicabilityID": 333
}]

If that array was simpler I could do it this way..

var notWhatIWant = [ 222, 444 ];

$scope.FiterByArray = function(e) {
  return FiterByArray.indexOf(e.ApplicabilityID) === -1;
}

<div ng-repeat="a in ArrayMain | filter: FiterByArray">
  {{ a }}
</div>

This doesn't work with the FiterByArray. I have considered creating a function that loops through the FilterByArray and removed just the ApplicabilityID and creates a new array to filter against, but not sure that is the correct approach for this.

This doesn't work but here is the fiddler I setup to experiment on JSFiddler

Try this filter https://jsfiddle.net/17jtu5r5/5/

 angular.module('myApp', [])
  .controller('myCtrlr', ['$scope', function($scope) {

    $scope.ArrayMain = [{
      "LocationID": 1,
      "AdornmentID": 11,
      "ApplicabilityID": 111
    }, {
      "LocationID": 2,
      "AdornmentID": 22,
      "ApplicabilityID": 222
    }, {
      "LocationID": 3,
      "AdornmentID": 33,
      "ApplicabilityID": 333
    }, {
      "LocationID": 4,
      "AdornmentID": 44,
      "ApplicabilityID": 444
    }];

/*
    var FiterByArray = [ 222, 444 ];
*/

    var FiterByArray = [ {
      "filterID": 1,
      "ApplicabilityID": 222
    },{
      "FilterID": 2,
      "ApplicabilityID": 444
    }];


  }]).filter('myFilter',function(){
   return function (items) {
          var obj = items.filter(function(x){
           return x.ApplicabilityID  === 111
           });
           return obj;
        }

  });

By pure JS you may do as follows;

 var ArrayMain = [{ "LocationID": 1, "AdornmentID": 11, "ApplicabilityID": 111 }, { "LocationID": 2, "AdornmentID": 22, "ApplicabilityID": 222 }, { "LocationID": 3, "AdornmentID": 33, "ApplicabilityID": 333 }, { "LocationID": 4, "AdornmentID": 44, "ApplicabilityID": 444 } ], FiterByArray = [{ "filterID": 1, "ApplicabilityID": 222}, { "filterID": 2, "ApplicabilityID": 444} ], resultArray = ArrayMain.filter(e => !FiterByArray.some(f => f.ApplicabilityID === e.ApplicabilityID)); console.log(resultArray)
