AngularJS Form submit - angularjs

Question

Working on my first small AngularJS App I'm facing problems with a form submit. I worked trough the CodeSchool course and figured the most out by myself, but this form submit thingy... well I just don't get where I'm wrong so that's why it would be nice if you could show me the right solution, so I can go on.
Project: A simple Workout List where you can list all the training sessions you had. This is my HTML, Element 3 is the problem:
<header class="wob-masthead container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6" ng-init="tab = 1">
<ul class="nav nav-pills">
<li ng-class="{ active:tab === 1 }"><a href ng-click="tab = 1">Overview</a></li>
<li ng-class="{ active:tab === 2}"><a href ng-click="tab = 2">Stats</a></li>
<li ng-class="{ active:tab === 3 }"><a href ng-click="tab = 3">New</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<form class="navbar-form pull-right" role="search">
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Search">
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Search</button>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</header>
<section class="wob-main mainlist container" id="headjump">
<!--- ==========================================
Element 1: Overview

<div class="subsite" ng-show="tab === 1">

<form name="WorkoutForm" ng-controller="EntryController as entryCtrl">

<h3>Last Workout:</h3>
<strong>{{entryCtrl.wo.name}}</strong><br>
<small>am: {{entryCtrl.wo.date}}</small><br>

</blockquote>
<input ng-model="entryCtrl.wo.date" type="date" placeholder="date" />
<input ng-model="entryCtrl.wo.name" type="name" placeholder="name" />
<input ng-model="entryCtrl.wo.repeat" type="repeat" placeholder="repeat" />
<input ng-model="entryCtrl.wo.time" type="time" placeholder="time" />
<input type="submit" value="Add" />

<!-- Ende Subsite -->
</div>
</section>
I styled it with Bootstrap and this is my app.js:
(function(){
var app = angular.module('wobuddy', [ ]);
app.controller('ListController', function(){
this.sessions = wos;
});
var wos = [
{
name: 'Squat',
date: '01.01.2015',
repeat: 50,
time: 10
},
{
name: 'Push Ups',
date: '01.01.2015',
repeat: 50,
time: 10
}
];
})();
Switching between the sections using the nav works pretty fine and also printing out the data-elements in the table, but when I push submit nothing happens - really hope you can help me to learn :-)

Answer 1

You need to make an EntryController that will add a new object to the end of the wos collection. Something like this:
app.controller('EntryController', function($scope) {
$scope.wo = {};
$scope.submit = function() {
wos.push($scope.wo);
$scope.wo = {}; // Clear the form fields
};
});
Then your HTML for that section could look something like this:
<form name="WorkoutForm" ng-controller="EntryController">
<blockquote>
<h3>Last Workout:</h3>
<strong>{{wo.name}}</strong><br>
<small>am: {{wo.date}}</small><br>
{{wo.repeat}} repeats in {{wo.time}} minutes.
</blockquote>
<input ng-model="wo.date" type="date" placeholder="date" />
<input ng-model="wo.name" type="name" placeholder="name" />
<input ng-model="wo.repeat" type="repeat" placeholder="repeat" />
<input ng-model="wo.time" type="time" placeholder="time" />
<button ng-click="submit()">Add</button>
</form>
Notice that it's more usual for a controller to communicate data to the template via the $scope object rather than via the controller object itself.

Answer 2

By looking at you form HTML, I think you missed the name attribute inside your form and also ng-submit directive is missing which will gets called after a submit form. Do check form validation inside controller using $valid() method and perform post else give alert to user.
HTML
<form name="workoutForm" ng-controller="ReviewController as reviewCtrl" ng-submit="submit(workoutForm, entryCtrl.wo)">
<blockquote>
<h3>Last Workout:</h3>
<strong>{{entryCtrl.wo.name}}</strong>
<br>
<small>am: {{entryCtrl.wo.date}}</small>
<br> {{entryCtrl.wo.repeat}} repeats in {{wo.time}} minutes.
</blockquote>
<input name="date" ng-model="entryCtrl.wo.date" type="date" placeholder="date" />
<input name="name" ng-model="entryCtrl.wo.name" type="name" placeholder="name" />
<input name="repeat" ng-model="entryCtrl.wo.repeat" type="repeat" placeholder="repeat" />
<input name="time" ng-model="entryCtrl.wo.time" type="time" placeholder="time" />
<input type="submit" value="Add" />
</form>
Controller
$scope.submit = function(workoutForm, item){
if(workoutForm.$valid)
//then make $http.post by sending item values
else
//show error
};

UPDATE
<html ng-app='demoApp'>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.4.8/angular.min.js"></script>
<body>
<form ng-controller="validationCtrl">
<input type="text" placeholder="Name...." ng-model="user.name"/>
<input type="text" placeholder="Password...." ng-model="user.pass"/>
<input type="text" placeholder="Mobile...." ng-model="user.mo"/>
<input type="submit" ng-click="alldata(user)"/>
</form>
<script>
//This is controller
var app = angular.module('demoApp', []);
app.controller('validationCtrl', function($scope) {
$scope.alldata=function(user)
{
alert(JSON.stringify(user));
}
});
</script>
</body>
</html>

You can also use this method, and
Your form shoud be like
<form method="post" name="sentMessage" id="my_contact" novalidate="novalidate">
<div class="control-group">
<div class="form-group floating-label-form-group controls mb-0 pb-2">
<label>Name</label>
<input class="form-control" id="name" type="text" name="name" placeholder="Name" required="required" data-validation-required-message="Please enter your name.">
<p class="help-block text-danger"></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="control-group">
<div class="form-group floating-label-form-group controls mb-0 pb-2">
<label>Email Address</label>
<input class="form-control" id="email" type="email" name="email" placeholder="Email Address" required="required" data-validation-required-message="Please enter your email address.">
<p class="help-block text-danger"></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="control-group">
<div class="form-group floating-label-form-group controls mb-0 pb-2">
<label>Phone Number</label>
<input class="form-control" id="phone" type="tel" name="phone" placeholder="Phone Number" required="required" data-validation-required-message="Please enter your phone number.">
<p class="help-block text-danger"></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="control-group">
<div class="form-group floating-label-form-group controls mb-0 pb-2">
<label>Message</label>
<textarea class="form-control" id="message" rows="5" name="Message" placeholder="Message" required="required" data-validation-required-message="Please enter a message."></textarea>
<p class="help-block text-danger"></p>
</div>
</div>
<br>
<div id="success"></div>
<div class="form-group">
Send
</div>
</form
import jquery as below
npm install jquery using CLI
import * as $ from 'jquery';
send_query() function will be
send_query() {
var data = $("#my_contact").serializeArray();
var indxarr = {};
$.each(data,function(i,v){
indxarr[v['name']] = v['value'];
});
data = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(indxarr))
//POST YOUR DATA
this.httpClient.post('http://localhost/rajat/ajax/contact_query_submit/', data,httpOptions)
.subscribe(data => {
console.log(data);
});
}
Your backend code will be
public function contact_query_submit(){
if ($this->input->post()) {
$postdata = file_get_contents("php://input");
$_POST = json_decode($postdata,TRUE);
$addArr = array(
'name' => $this->input->post('name'),
'email' => $this->input->post('email'),
'phone' => $this->input->post('phone'),
'message' => $this->input->post('message'),
'created' => time()
);
if($this->main_model->create('rjt_contact', $addArr)){
$arr[] = array('type' => 'success', 'msg' => '<p>Your query has been received. <br>We will get back to you soon.</p>');
echo json_encode($arr);
}else{
$arr[] = array('type' => 'warning', 'msg' => '<p>'.$this->db->last_query().'</p>');
echo json_encode($arr);
}
}else{
$arr[] = array('type' => 'warning', 'msg' => '<p>No data post yet</p>');
echo json_encode($arr);
}
}
