I have a $rootScope object in AngularJS like this:

$rootScope.stuff = {
    someId: {
        name: "Patrick",
        age: 105
    },
    anotherId: {
        name: "Joseph",
        age: 94
    }
};

I have a function defined that adds objects to $rootScope.stuff, and it works fine:

$rootScope.addSomeStuff = function(id, data) {
    $rootScope.stuff[id] = data;
};

However, I also have a function that tries to delete (based on ), and it is not working:

$rootScope.deleteStuff = function(id) {
    delete $rootScope.stuff[id];
};

When I check $rootScope.stuff[id] I am getting the correct object that I want to delete. I have also tried splice, but that throws an error like I thought it would. Any suggestions? Thanks.

• Could you show me what you did for your splice function? – John Cooling Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 21:17
• Sure. $rootScope.stuff.splice($rootScope.stuff[id], 1); And I got the error "TypeError: $rootScope.stuff.splice is not a function." – psnoonan Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 21:21
• Why don't you think it works? Is there an error? – tymeJV Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 21:22
• Just to confirm - you named the arg that you're passing into the delete method "id" but you're actually passing in the index of the object you want to delect, correct? $rootScope.deleteStuff = function(index) – jordajm Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 21:24
• Splice only works on arrays, correct? $rootScope.stuff is just an object. – psnoonan Commented Jun 25, 2015 at 21:24

Change the object to an array of objects, then pass in the index of the object you want to delete:

$rootScope.stuff = [
    someId: {
        name: "Patrick",
        age: 105
    },
    anotherId: {
        name: "Joseph",
        age: 94
    }
];



$rootScope.deleteStuff = function(index) {
    delete $rootScope.stuff[index];
};

HTML (assuming this is rendered via ng-repeat):

<button ng-click="deleteStuff($index)"></button>

EDIT

If you need to keep the data as an object, it will be a difficult data structure to work with because the ID of each object is actually not an ID but an object with a name and an age. So, I actually don't know if it'll be possible to delete the entire object. You could delete the name and the age but without a unique identifier for the whole object I don't know how you'd delete the object itself.
