How to replace single quotes with double quotes in Angular expression syntax + html

Question

In the below code snippet i want to replace string in single quote to string in double quote. is there any way to do that

<ul>
    <li ng-class="{ 'text-success': $first }" ng-repeat="item in items"
    {{item.name}}</li>
</ul>

when i tried doing it by adding escape character, angular logged an error "Error: [$parse:lexerr] Lexer Error: Unexpected next character at columns 1-1 [] in expression [{\]

Why you need to do that? If you replace, I think it won't work — Mad Angle, Oct 30 '17 at 08:04

This should do what you want.

<ul>
    <li ng-class='{ "text-success": $first }' ng-repeat="item in items">
    {{item.name}}</li>
</ul>

I don't know why you would want it like this though.

@Bandesh29 sometimes it better we amend to standards, because your today's code, may be the problem of someone's tomorrow code. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2373074/single-vs-double-quotes-vs – Thirueswaran Rajagopalan Oct 30 '17 at 08:37
You can change your class name to not contain dash. For example: `textSuccess`. Then quotes around it won't be needed. – Episodex Oct 30 '17 at 08:37
