Loading drop down values for angularJS

Question

I am trying to load the drop down values from an array using angular js.

I see and can make it work when data (array is in this format);

items = [
    { id: 1, name: 'Foo' },
    { id: 2, name: 'Bar' } 

which can be loaded

<div ng-controller="ExampleCtrl">
    <select ng-model="selectedItem" 
            ng-options="item as item.name for item in items"></select>

</div>

However data I am receiving is in this format with no identifiers;

items = {["Moe", "Larry", "Curly"]}

How would i load the select with the names from my array?

Answer 1

I think you'll be looking for item as item for item in items as silly as that looks haha.

So;

<div ng-controller="ExampleCtrl">
<select ng-model="selectedItem" 
        ng-options="item as item for item in items"></select>
</div> 

Hope that helps!
