How do I run ngRepeat on obj with strings

Question

Im trying to run ng-repeat on this obj to display "settings":

var settingsTest = {
            "id": "2",
            "active": "1",
            "settings": {
                "action":0,
                "somestaff":0,
                "message":0,
                "mouth":0,
                "heost":0,
                "gaming":0,
                "live.live":0,
                "notifications": 0,
                "profile": 0
            }
        };

And here is HTML to display it:

<ul>
   <li ng-repeat="(name, value) in settingsTest['settings'] | orderBy: 'name'">
   </li>
</ul>

At the end it gives me an error that the message has to be a string.

I tryed it, didnt work, possibly I did it wrong – Andre Kuznetcov May 26 '15 at 17:27 — Andre Kuznetcov, May 26 '15 at 17:27
what is your controller code? – Samir Das May 26 '15 at 17:33 — Samir Das, May 26 '15 at 17:33

First, make sure your settingsTest is on the $scope or controller -- as you have it, var settingsTest = [...], the view is not going to know about it.

$scope.settingsTest = {
   ...
}

Then, in your view:

<li ng-repeat="(setting, value) in settingsTest.settings">
  {{setting}} {{value}}
</li>

don't you need (settings, value)? – Josh Stevens May 26 '15 at 17:33
No, those are just just aliases. You could have `(whatever, youWant)` as long as you call them correctly in the `{{whatever}} {{youWant}}` markup @JoshStevens – Tom May 26 '15 at 17:35
ohh cool! yeah makes sense, i just like them to match! :) OCD – Josh Stevens May 26 '15 at 17:37
