Angularjs add a Child Object to Json Object

Question

When I try to add the Children to Json Object i am getting an issue :

TypeError: ctrl.otsact.tests.push is not a function

Script :

function addOTSACT() {
        var data = {
            'date': '',
            'subjects': angular.copy(ctrl.otsactSubjectsCopy)
        }
        $('.dateField').datepicker({
        changeMonth: true,
        changeYear: true
        });
        ctrl.otsact.tests.push({});
    }

Json Object :

      "name":"ACT",

In your JSON tests is not an array but an object, and you cannot push to an object. So this line is wrong:

ctrl.otsact.tests.push({});

You have to change it to:

ctrl.otsact.tests[MYNEWID] = MYNEWOBJECT;

Your tests property is...an object, not an array. Tests should be tests: [], not tests: {}.
