AngularJS render HTML within double curly brace notation - html

Question

I have JSON variables that contain HTML.
By doing: {{source.HTML}} Angular is showing < and > instead of < and >.
What can I do to have Angular render the actual HTML?
UPDATE:
This is my controller:
app.controller('objectCtrl', ['$scope', '$http', '$routeParams',
function($scope, $http, $routeParams) {
var productId = ($routeParams.productId || "");
$http.get(templateSource+'/object?i='+productId)
.then(function(result) {
$scope.elsevierObject = {};
angular.extend($scope,result.data[0]);
});
}]);
Inside my HTML i can then use:
<div>{{foo.bar.theHTML}}</div>

Do you want to show the HTML (like <b>Hello</b>) or render the HTML (like Hello) ?
If you want to show it, the curly bracket is enough. However if the html you have has html entities (like <stuff) you need to manually unescape it, see this SO question.
If you want to render it, you need to use the ng-bind-html directive instead of curcly bracket (which, FYI, is a shortcut to the ng-bind directive). You need to tell Angular that the content injected into that directive is safe, using $sce.trustAsHtml.
See example of both cases below:
angular.module('test', []).controller('ctrl', function($scope, $sce) {
$scope.HTML = '<b>Hello</b>';
$scope.trust = $sce.trustAsHtml;
});
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.23/angular.min.js"></script>
<div ng-app="test" ng-controller="ctrl">
<div>Show: {{HTML}}</div>
<div>Render: <span ng-bind-html="trust(HTML)"></span></div>
</div>
