I've been beating my head up against the wall on this one for a while but I finally feel close. What I'm trying to do is read my test data, which goes to a two dimensional array, and print its contents to a table in the html, but I can't figure out how to use an ngfor to loop though that dataset
Here is my typescript file
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Http } from '@angular/http';
@Component({
selector: 'fetchdata',
template: require('./fetchdataponent.html')
})
export class FetchDataComponent {
public tableData: any[][];
constructor(http: Http) {
http.get('/api/SampleData/DatatableData').subscribe(result => {
//This is test data only, could dynamically change
var arr = [
{ ID: 1, Name: "foo", Email: "[email protected]" },
{ ID: 2, Name: "bar", Email: "[email protected]" },
{ ID: 3, Name: "bar", Email: "[email protected]" }
]
var res = arr.map(function (obj) {
return Object.keys(obj).map(function (key) {
return obj[key];
});
});
this.tableData = res;
console.log("Table Data")
console.log(this.tableData)
});
}
}
Here is my html which does not work at the moment
<p *ngIf="!tableData"><em>Loading...</em></p>
<table class='table' *ngIf="tableData">
<tbody>
<tr *ngFor="let data of tableData; let i = index">
<td>
{{ tableData[data][i] }}
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Here is the output from my console.log(this.tableData)
My goal is to have it formatted like this in the table
1 | foo | [email protected]
2 | bar | [email protected]
Preferably I'd like to not use a model or an interface because the data is dynamic, it could change at any time. Does anyone know how to use the ngfor to loop through a two dimensional array and print its contents in the table?

You can simply use an inner
*ngFor="let d of data"
.index
is the counter and specifies how many times your loop is executed. – Marco Luzzara Commented Jul 7, 2017 at 19:26

Reset to default 6Like Marco Luzzara said, you have to use another *ngFor for the nested arrays.
I answer this just to give you a code example:
<table class='table' *ngIf="tableData">
<tbody>
<tr *ngFor="let data of tableData; let i = index">
<td *ngFor="let cell of data">
{{ cell }}
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
