Hi Can any one let me know how can I make ng-options to select from multiple collections based up on a condition.
<select class="form-control" data-ng-model="model1" data-ng-options="tmp.Name as tmp.Name for tmp in Temp.Names.FiltereDepartments"><option value="">Select Value</option></select>
In the above code instead of FiltereDepartments, I want to change the value of this to property based up on a condition, is this possible to achieve using ng-class or which one can I use with in select clause to check for conditions and change the collection name accordingly.

I'm working on angularjs app, and I can't find the answer for simple question. I've got an select with ng-options, when array that is set for options has more then one object inside the select is empty on start, but when array has only one element it automatically set it as default value. I need this select to be empty at the begining all the time, is there any solution?
in angularJS you may separate the variable used to fill in your options values and the model that stores your selected value.
See that example :
//Model used to store selected values
<select class="form-control" ng-model="myModel.country">
//I have a $scope.countries array of country
<option ng-repeat="country in countries" ng-value="country" required>{{country.name}}</option>
</select>
I have a lot of select boxes in my application, being generated by lists of data and assigned to various ng-models.
I want to set the ng-model value to the first available option (respecting filters) of all select inputs globally in the app.
So for example a select input like this:
<select ng-model="entry.employee">
<option ng-value="employee.name" ng-repeat="employee in employees | filter:active">{{employee.name}}</option>
</select>
The entry.employee ng-model defaults to null, I need every select box to never be null but always select the first valid option of a select input by default.
It needs to be global as well and be generic enough to work with any type of select input.
Here is the data:
$scope.employees= [
{'name':'Bill'},
{'name':'Frank'},
{'name':'Ted'},
];
Instead of using ng-repeat on option elements use directly ng-option on select tag.
for example
<select class="form-control" ng-options="item.name for item in employees track by item.id" ng-model="selectedItem"></select>
in you controller use:
$scope.selectedItem=$scope.employees[0];
your object would be like:
$scope.employees= [
{id:'1','name':'Bill'},
{id:'2','name':'Frank'},
{id:'3','name':'Ted'},
];
In this case let you select tags be 'n' numbers but whenever you want you ng-model to be the first one just initialize it with the first element in your Object.
Also there is a good thing using ng-option is whenever you want to change the value of the select element at runtime you just need to update the selectedItem element.
Hope this resolves your query
I have the code listed below which works fine, however when i attempt to add ng-model and related ng-change to the select, an empty option is added. I understanding why, it is because on init the selectedOption for ng-model is empty.
What I want to do is set a default value so when I can use ng-change to set options IsSelected value to true when user selects it. I'm just not sure how to go about this, I have no issues doing this when I'm working with a static generated select list, but for some reason I can't figure it out for this dynamic generated list.
Any input is appreciated!
<div ng-repeat="optionType in productDetailModel.OptionTypes">
<select name="{{optionType.OptionTypeName}}">
<option ng-repeat="option in optionType.Options"
value="{{option.OptionValue}}">{{option.OptionValue}}
</option>
</select>
</div>
Here's plunkr I mocked to give a basic idea of what I have in mind: http://plnkr.co/edit/xBDfc0XzDwsF0mBiFZOv?p=preview
The initial option is blank because the model is initially undefined.
As tymeJV said, initializing your scope inside of your .js will define a default value that will be shown as selected initially.
$scope.modelName = $scope.optionType.Options[0];
It might be helpful to use ng-options instead of ng-repeat. One reason why it might be beneficial is that ng-options does not create a child scope (unlike ng-repeat). This could help simplify linking to your model and avoid confusion.
<select name="{{optionType.OptionTypeName}}" ng-model="modelName" ng-options="option for option in optionType.Options">
</select>
This article covers the basics of ng-options as well as discusses why it would be used as opposed to ng-repeat.
Hope this helps.
Use ng-options when using a select!
<select name="{{optionType.OptionTypeName}}" ng-model="someModel" ng-options="option as option for option in optionType.Options>
</select>
And then set the ngModel to the default option you want selected:
$scope.someModel = $scope.optionType.Options[0]
There is one directive of select element is ng-init but it call once while first time rendering, but if you change the options dynamically then it will not call again. So for that you need to set the model field with value in scope just below of your new option population logic.
$scope.modelName = $scope.Options[0]; // if array
$scope.modelName = $scope.Options[key]; // if Json Object
In Angular 1.2.11, given a controller with:
$scope.produce = { 'apples' : [{ 'variety' : 'granny smith', 'price': 2.00}] }
And a view with
<select ng-model='fruits'>
<option value="0">More Fruits...</option>
<option ng-repeat="p.apple for p in produce" value="p">{{ p.variety }}</option>
</select>
How can I bind 'p' to the value attribute? If I try as above the model is bound as a JSON string, not as the model itself (as it would be if I were able to use ng-options).
I'm working around this now by using an ng-change function that uses the value bound to fruits as a lookup in $scope.produce, but this seems like a workaround rather than a solution.
EDIT: Sorry I wasn't more clear about this: I need to be able to hard code 1+ options into the select list, so using ng-options is not a solution.
Here are some fiddles to help illustrate my problem:
** Using ng-options **
ng-options allows for one element that it uses for creating a default option for use as a label. Two problems with this: if I try to use that <option> for its intended purpose I can't add a second option to the select. On the other hand, if I just try to add one <option> element, it gets placed at the top of the <select> list. No good.
** Using ng-repeat **
I'm unable to bind the model to the value attribute of the <option> element. Instead, the value is stringified JSON, which is not bindable.
You need to use ng-options:
<select ng-model='fruits' ng-options="thisFruit.variety in apples">
</select>
If you need to have an option selected as a default (your "More Fruits" option) then you need to add that to the data before it gets to the repeater, and also set your model $scope.fruits = 0 to make that selection selected by default.
I'm using a select tag with a ng-model attribute. I get the value of the selected element in ng-model. How is it possible to also get the label of the selected element.
I would like to retrieve both the label and its value. Thanks.
I'm guessing you are either using ng-repeat to create your choices, or typing them manually in the template. It is possible if you set your labels and values in the same model. If you have:
$scope.choices = {
"choiceone" : "The first Choice",
"choicetwo" : "The second Choice",
"choicethree" : "The third Choice"}
You can implement them like so:
<select ng-model="choice">
<option ng-repeat="(key, value) in choices" value="{{key}}">{{value}}</option>
</select>
However, this isn't the best way to use the select directive (assuming this is what you are doing). The select directive has a ng-options attribute that defines both value and label, in a cleaner fashion. I've edited the doc's example Plunkr on this subject, including a example usage of a ngRepeat here: http://plnkr.co/edit/sjQuhlgBh8WWJJoaSSMG?p=preview
