Essentially what I want are numbers that I can pass into HTML based on a the number of times substring is matched from a response body.

I understand the best way to get that number is through regex. If I were to look for the number of occurrences of 'RED' for example I would want something like:

    var count1 = (proj.match(/RED/g) || []).length;

This is assuming that proj is a var with a response that has that in there.

Let's go with proj having too occurrences of 'RED'.

count1 should equal '2' or so I believe it should. So I want this to be stored for use with AngularJS so I go:

    $scope.red = count1;

And in the HTML I add {{red}}. This however, does not show 2. It also does not break the AngularJS and the response is also fine.

Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong?

  • your count looks fine and as per your steps assuming you are doing a match with case sensitive red should display 2 share your code its may be somewhere wrong in your angular implementation Commented Nov 17, 2016 at 11:08
  • put $scope.red = 'foo', if foo is rendered, then your problem is angularjs, not regex. for angulrajs, post your html and controllers setup Commented Nov 17, 2016 at 11:08
