I have 2 related inputs in angular one is type number and the other is type text.
They both display the same value with the only difference being that the type text input displays the value of the type number input formatted for currency.
Only one of these is displayed at any given time. The behaviour I'd like is for the text input to be displayed initially and then on the click event the text input is hidden and the number input is shown. Similarly when the blur event happens on the number input the number input is hidden and the text input is shown.
The markup for this looks something like this:
<div>
<input type="number" ng-model="aValue" ng-blur="hideMeAndShowInputBelow">
<input type="text" ng-value="aValue | currency:'': '0'" ng-click="hideMeAndShowAndFocusInputAbove" readonly="readonly">
</div>
I know I could add extra properties to make this work but being relatively new to Angular this feels like the sort of thing that there is probably an elegant solution for.
Any help would be much appreciated.
You can assign a variable in ng-blur/ng-click and hide/show the inputs depending on the variable value.
<div>
<input type="number" ng-model="aValue" ng-show="showNumber" ng-blur="showNumber = false">
<input type="text" ng-value="aValue | currency:'': '0'" ng-show="!showNumber" ng-click="showNumber = true" readonly="readonly">
</div>

Alternatively, if this is a component you're going to use multiple times around your app, you could create a custom directive that achieves the same functionality, and thus avoid a lot of code duplication etc.
Try out something like this
<div ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="myCtrl">
<button class="btn btn-success" type="text" ng-model="firstName" ng-show="display" ng-click="display=!display"> BUTTON 1</button>
<br />
<button class="btn btn-warning" ng-click="display=!display" ng-model="lastName" ng-show="!display"> BUTTON 2
</button>
</div>

Thanks for the suggestions. I followed the same approach but because I had some additional requirements (I wanted the value to be focussed when switching to the edit mode so the user can edit immediately without having to click the input again) I ended up writing a directive. It's here:
PLUNKER
But here is the markup.
<div class="mt-flight-input" ng-class="{'mt-dirty': value.newvalue != value.initial, 'mt-zero': value.newvalue == 0}">
<input type="number" class="mt-input" placeholder="0" ng-show="value.isAuthoring" ng-model="value.newvalue" ng-blur="checkValue('blur', value)" ng-focus="checkValue('focus', value)">
<input type="text" class="mt-input" placeholder="0" ng-show="!value.isAuthoring" ng-value="value.newvalue | currency:'': '0'| comma2dots" ng-click="showEditor($event, value)" ng-focus="showEditor($event, value)" readonly="readonly">
</div>

I have used the following code segment where I wanted to change the value of the input box when it is loaded, but it didn't work
test.template.html
<div class="col-value">
<input type="text" class="input-box" autofocus="autofocus" ng-blur="saveData(value)" ng-class="getColor(value)" ng-model="value" >%
</div>
getColor function is written in the controller where the color is decided according to the value given.
Could soomeone help me to solve this issue ? Thanks inadvance
The above code is correctly work when the relevant css classes are set into the input box as follows.
<span class="color">
<div class="col-value">
<input type="text" class="input-box" autofocus="autofocus" ng-blur="saveData(value)" ng-class="getColor(value)" ng-model="value" >%
</div>
</span>
I currently has a simple form that I am trying to test with Protractor. While it seems to work fine with basic input types, it does not seem to work with ngTagsInput the way I have it set up. I was wondering if there was a particular way of setting this up without triggering the error below.
Failed: unknown error: cannot focus element
(Session info: ...)
(Driver info: ...)
...
Currently my form, has 4 elements. A name (standard input), a type (radio buttons), targets (the tag inputs), and a submit button. In HTML, it appears something like this.
<div class="form-group">
<input class="form-control" placeholder="Enter name here..." ng-model="name">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div id="t1" class="radio">
<input name="radioType" id="a" value="A" checked="" type="radio" ng-model="type">
</div>
<div id="t2" class="radio">
<input name="radioType" id="b" value="B" type="radio" ng-model="type">
</div>
<div id="t3" class="radio">
<input name="radioType" id="c" value="C" type="radio" ng-model="type">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<tags-input class="btags" name="targets" min-length=1 placeholder="Enter your targets here..." min-tags=1 add-on-blur="true" ng-model="targets">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<button id="submit" type="button" class="btn btn-primary" ng-click="submitThing()"></button>
</div>
Lastly, the one Protractor test I have written looks like this.
it('should submit a valid thing',function(){
//Sets a name for the object
element(by.model('name')).sendKeys('user');
//Sets a type for the object
element(by.id('t1')).click();
/*Inputting tags (the functions below) seem to not work and throw an error*/
//Clicks (or focuses on) the tag input box
element(by.model('targets')).click();
//Types in the elements within it
element(by.model('targets')).sendKeys('target1');
//Presses Enter to submit that particular target
browser.actions().sendKeys(protractor.Key.ENTER).perform();
//Repeat for more
element(by.model('targets')).sendKeys('target2');
browser.actions().sendKeys(protractor.Key.ENTER).perform();
element(by.model('targets')).sendKeys('target3');
browser.actions().sendKeys(protractor.Key.ENTER).perform();
element(by.id('submit')).click();
}
The managed to find a solution thanks to MBielski's comment. It turns out that you need to look at the HTML that is rendered and focus on one of those elements since it is a custom element. Using Google Chrome's developer tools, I managed to find some of the inner code for the make up of the tags. In short, it appears as:
<input class="input" ng-model="newTag.text">
There is much more information in this inner element, but I left what was relevant. So, you add information into the tags inbox I've defined in the question asked, you would simply focus on the model called "newTag.text", like this.
it('should submit a valid thing',function(){
//Sets a name for the object
element(by.model('name')).sendKeys('user');
//Sets a type for the object
element(by.id('t1')).click();
//Clicks (or focuses on) the tag input box // This may not be needed
element(by.model('newTag.text')).click();
//Types in the elements within it
element(by.model('newTag.text')).sendKeys('target1');
//Presses Enter to submit that particular target
browser.actions().sendKeys(protractor.Key.ENTER).perform();
//Repeat for more
element(by.model('newTag.text')).sendKeys('target2');
browser.actions().sendKeys(protractor.Key.ENTER).perform();
element(by.model('newTag.text')).sendKeys('target3');
browser.actions().sendKeys(protractor.Key.ENTER).perform();
element(by.id('submit')).click();
}
This solved the problem for me. Hopefully it also does for others.
not sure why but the property binds just fine to textarea and doesnt want to bind to a text box...
Here is HTML:
<form method="post" ng-submit="vm.executeAction('CompleteWorkOrder')">
<div class="form-group">
<label for="resolutionNote">#("Resolution Note".T())</label>
<textarea name="resolution" class="form-control" rows="4" placeholder="Provide resolution..." ng-bind="vm.woComplete.Resolution" required></textarea>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="completionDate">#("Completion Date".T())</label>
<input type="text" name="completionDate" class="form-control" ng-bind="vm.woComplete.Resolution" required>
</div>
<label>#("MRT".T()) {{vm.data.MRT}}</label>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success pull-right">Submit</button>
</form>
and the result
Does anyone know why this is happening? Thanks.
The ngBind attribute tells Angular to replace the text content of the specified HTML element with the value of a given expression, and to update the text content when the value of that expression changes.
In your screenshot you can see that the text you entered in the text area DOES appear between the <input> and </input> tags. But, while that's fine for a textarea, that's not how an input works. An input stores it's data in the value attribute. You would want to use ng-model to get what you want.
I have a form where a model contains an array of sub-models, like this:
<form name="form1">
<div ng-repeat="sub in model.submodels">
<input ng-model="sub.name" required>
<button ng-click="delSubmodel($index)">x</button>
</div>
<button ng-click="addSubmodel()">+</button>
<button ng-disabled="form1.$invalid" type="submit">Save</button>
</form>
How can I make form invalid when there are no input fields (or, in general, when the count of input fields is less than/greater than some value)
Update: Thanks for responses, I hope this can be done outside of controller.
Okay, I just got what you want to achieve, you will had to add a constraint to the form, which is the size of the subModel, so in your submit method:
Before doing anything
$scope.form1.$setValidity('size', model.subModels.length <= 0);
This will set the validity of the form to false in case your condition is false, or viceversa, you can also show a message to notify it to the user, adding this:
<form name="form1">
<div ng-repeat="sub in model.submodels">
<input ng-model="sub.name" required>
<button ng-click="delSubmodel($index)">x</button>
</div>
<input type="hidden" name="size" ng-model="model.subModels.length" />
<button ng-click="addSubmodel()">+</button>
<button ng-disabled="form1.$invalid" type="submit">Save</button>
You can check this example if you don't feel you didn't understood well my point, which is doing the same, just changing the validity for a single input.
Hope it helps you.
I am trying to submit the form on only successful validation.
validation is working for required but not working for ng-minlength
form input is invalid but form is still being submitted.
<form name="myForm" ng-submit="count = count + 1" ng-init="count=0" ng-app>
<div class="control-group" ng-class="{error: myForm.mobile.$invalid}">
<label class="control-label" for="mobile">Mobile</label>
<div class="controls">
<input type="text" name="mobile" placeholder="07XXXXXXXXX" ng-model="mobile" ng-minlength="11" required />
<span ng-show="myForm.mobile.$error.required" class="help-inline">Required</span>
<span ng-show="myForm.mobile.$error.minlength" class="help-inline">Mobile number should be minimum 11 character starting from 07</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="control-group">
<div class="controls">
<input class="btn" type="submit" value ="submit" />
</div>
count: {{count}}<br />
<tt>myForm.$invalid = {{myForm.$invalid}}</tt><br/>
</div>
</form>

what am I doing wrong.
I don't want to use submit button disable method.
This is what you are doing wrong: you are mixing two concepts, Angular validators and
HTML5 validators.
The required HTML5 validators, for instance, states that:
When present, it specifies that an input field must be filled out before submitting the form.
So, if you try to submit a form that has an input with this attribute, it will show a message explaining this to the user, and it will prevent the form from being sent. This is the behavior you want. Why isn't working for ng-minlength? Because ng-minlength is an Angular validator (you can tell because it begins with ng-), and it doesn't add any special behavior to the form. It simply set the input where it is located to invalid (and hence, the form), and let you decide what to do with it.
You have an option: you can use the pattern HTML5 validator, to specify the field requires at least 11 characters. It would like this:
<input type="text" pattern=".{11,}">
So when you submit a form containing this input, it will no be sent if the user has enter less than 11 characters.
But since we are it, and you are already using the pattern validator, you could use the regular expression in its full potential, and define something like:
<input type="text" pattern="07[0-9]{9}" />
Which will only admit values of 11 characters, that start by "07" and that contains only digits. I have modified your fiddle to show you how it would work: http://jsfiddle.net/helara/w35SQ/
I mistakenly used ngMaxlength="12" ngMinlength="6" instead of ng-minlength="6" ng-maxlength="12", it's working fine now.
Both ng-minlength & mg-maxlength works in AngularJS.
I've tested this in AngularJS version 1.3.
Make sure to use novalidate with <form> to disable browser's native validation.
This should work:
To enter mobile number
ng-show="myForm.mobile.$touched && myForm.mobile.$error.required"
For minimum length
ng-show="myForm.mobile.$touched && myForm.mobile.$error.minlength"
For maximum length
ng-show="myForm.mobile.$touched && myForm.mobile.$error.maxlength"
This work for me guys
<div class="mdl-textfield mdl-js-textfield mdl-textfield--floating-label">
<input ng-minlength="11" class="mdl-textfield__input" type="text" name="cpf" id="cpf" ng-model="avaliacao.cpf" ng-required="true" ng-pattern="/^\d+$/">
<label class="mdl-textfield__label" for="cpf">CPF *</label>
</div>
<p style="color: #d50000;" ng-show="myForm.cpf.$error.required && myForm.cpf.$dirty">Field Required</p>
<p style="color: #d50000;" ng-show="myForm.cpf.$error.pattern">Only numbers</p>
<p style="color: #d50000;" ng-show="myForm.cpf.$error.minlength">Min 11 Chars</p>
I'm facing the same issue, and I think you can only disable the button or ignore the entered value by yourself. You can also check the $valid property in your controller and ignore the value... It is not so nice, but I found no other way.
