Hello, in my database representing job offers, I have a field called ‘sentences’ (representing requirements for a given job offer) and this field contains an array of sentences (each table entry might have different number of those sentences)

On my dynamic side connected to that database , I would like to print all the sentences for a given row one under another like that:

870×304 27.3 KB

so that each element of my array ‘sentences’ [‘sentence_1’, ‘sentence_2’ … ‘sentence_n’] will be displayed in a separate line one under another with lets say that little dot in the beginning(dot is not necessary).

I will be more thank grateful for some help

You can use a repeater for your purposes.

let’s say …
-you have a DB-FIELD in your DATABASE called —> ‘sentences’, which is of type → ARRAY or TAGS, doesn’t really matter

You have 5 sentences inside…
-mySentence-1
-mySentence-2
-mySentence-3
-mySentence-4
-mySentence-5

Let’s recreate this situation…

let sentenceCollection = ["mySentence-1", "mySentence-2", "mySentence-3", "mySentence-4", "mySentence-5"];

console.log("Sentence-1: sentenceCollection[0]);
console.log("Sentence-2: sentenceCollection[1]);
console.log("Sentence-3: sentenceCollection[2]);
console.log("Sentence-4: sentenceCollection[3]);
console.log("Sentence-5: sentenceCollection[4]);

To be able to use a → REPEATER for your purposes, you will have to generate a new ARRAY, carriying Objects and including an → ID ← inside it. It can consist of a counting-up index, or you use for example random IDs.

At the end it will have to look like…


let preparedRepeaterObject = [
  {
    "_id": "1",
    "firstName": "John",
    "lastName": "Doe",
    "image": "http://someImageUrl/john.jpg",
    "sentence": 
  },
  {
    "_id": "2",
    "firstName": "Jane",
    "lastName": "Doe",
    "image": "http://someImageUrl/jane.jpg"
  }
]

It won’t work without orange marked parameters.
