I have a quite typical scenario:
AngularJS (currently 1.2, want to upgrade to 1.3/1.4 soon)
Bootstrap 3.x
AngularStrap 2.1.x
As top-level menu I place a navbar with some dropdown menus and I'd like it to be collapsable for smaller devices (tablet portrait, phone).
<div class="navbar navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top"
ng-controller="MenuCtrl" bs-navbar>
<div class="container-fluid" bs-collapse start-collapsed="true">
<div class="navbar-header">
<button type="button" class="navbar-toggle"
bs-collapse-toggle>
<span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span><span class="icon-bar"></span><span class="icon-bar"></span>
</button>
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#">ACME</a>
</div>
<div class="navbar-collapse collapse" bs-collapse-target>
<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
<li>Home</li>
<li class="dropdown" bs-dropdown>
<a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle"
data-toggle="dropdown"
id="tst-dropdown-session">
Session <b class="caret"></b>
</a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Login</li>
<li>Logout</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
(Of course above code is reduced compared to my real code)
The problem is: when clicking on the top-menu item, only a small dropdown shows up (~10px height) without sub-menu items.
Does anybody have a working example for this?
I could manage the menu items in a model of the controller, but how does "collapse" work then? Any ideas?
Edit (add pictures)
On narrow devices it should not look like this:
But it should more like this:
Define your menu items in controller.
And use it your html template as follows
HTML code
<li>Home</li>
<li class="dropdown" bs-dropdown="dropdownHtml">
<a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle"
id="tst-dropdown-session">
Session <b class="caret"></b>
</a>
</li>
Controller code
$scope.dropdownHtml = [
{
text: "Login",
href: '#/login',
title: 'Log out'
},
{
text: "Logout",
href: '/api/auth/logout',
title: 'Log out'
}
];

Problem
Click on Navbar and then click on Hello: It does not show the li items
Please suggest.
It's clear that you are using click event with bootstrap component which require bootstrap javascript files. You must include it. Then you have to add a trigger to your menu. I belive the menu should be something like that :
<div class="dropdown">
<a role="button" href="#" class="dropdown-toggle"
data-toggle="dropdown" >Hello <b class="caret"></b>
</a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu" ng-show="true">
<li>
item 1
</li>
<li>
item 2
</li>
<li>
item 3
</li>
</ul>
That is a little Plunker figure out your problem plunker.
I hope that helps
<ul class="nav navbar-nav friend-label">

<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li ng-repeat="subModule in module.SubModules">
<a href=""><b>{{subModule.SubModuleName}} </b>
</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
By which, I'm getting following out put.
Question and problem is, when I do have submenu its fine if dropdown appears,
but when there is no submenu, dropdown should not come. still it shows dropdown small pointer arrow. and if you click it, it comes out with blank dropdown.
As shown in this fig, Contact Us menu doesn't have submenu. Still blank dropdown comes. I want to stop it using above code of HTML. Its a small problem. but I'm unable to fig it out.
Using ngRepeat you can dynamically populated menu from the model:
<span class="dropdown" dropdown on-toggle="toggled(open)">
<a href class="dropdown-toggle" dropdown-toggle>
Click me!
</a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li ng-repeat="choice in items">
<a ng-click="runFn(choice.fn)">{{choice.name}}</a>
</li>
</ul>
</span>
Look for fully worked example on Plunker
I am inferring that you are populating your dropdown items dynamically via ajax or server-side.
If that is true, then you could make use of small CSS/Javascript to hide empty menus. But, you have to take care of a few quirks.
First make sure that your markup looks like this:
<li class="dropdown">
Contact Us <span class="caret"></span>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu"></ul>
</li>
Important: Notice, that there is no white space between your ul.dropdown-menu start and end tags. This is because, the CSS :empty selector will fail if there is a white-space or line-break.
Now, if there are menu-items in your database you could populate those inside the ul.dropdown-menu as li. If there are no items, then it will left empty. At this point you will have a small dropdown which is empty and still a caret showing.
A little CSS can make the empty dropdown go away:
ul.dropdown-menu:empty {
display: none;
}
But, because CSS does not have reverse adjacent sibling combinator, we cannot target the caret. So, we have to resort to a little Javascript/jQuery:
$("ul.dropdown-menu:empty").prev("a").children("span.caret").first().hide();
You can choose to have both implemented only in jQuery if you wish to. This is just to give you an idea.
Put together your setup now looks and behaves something like this snippet below. Please view it in full-screen to prevent collapsing.
Snippet:
$("ul.dropdown-menu:empty").prev("a").children("span.caret").first().hide();
ul.dropdown-menu:empty {
display: none;
}

I created a contact form with angularJS and when I try to integrate it in the page that I built with bootstrap, the Navbar dropdowns and the toggle button don't work. How do I fix it in the best and easiest way?

Don't use Bootstrap's js file and try to avoid jQuery with Angular (jQuery shouldn't be needed). Instead, just include UI Bootstrap and it will add bootstrap's JavaScript functionality as Angular directives.
Include the ui-bootstrap script:
<script src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/angular-ui-bootstrap/0.10.0/ui-bootstrap-tpls.min.js"></script>
then, inject it as a module dependency in your app:
angular.module('myApp', [
'ui.bootstrap'
]);
This will make the Bootstrap components work in your application. Be sure to read the documentation for UI Bootstrap.
I'm trying to use the Angular UI Dropdown Toggle to create a multi-level / nested drop down.
When I click on the first level of the dropdown it simply closes up altogether and does not reveal the second tier.
I've attached a very basic plunkr to demonstrate a bare bones version of what I'm trying to achieve.

Any help, greatly appreciated.

Sub-menu has been removed from Boostrap 3 as it is deemed irrelevant for mobile.
"Submenus just don't have much of a place on the web right now, especially the mobile web. They will be removed with 3.0" - https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/pull/6342
An example that uses Bootstrap 3.0.0 (final): http://bootply.com/86684
Code from StackOverflow post:
Bootstrap 3 dropdown sub menu missing
You can use the class "dropdown-submenu" to achieve this.
<div class="btn-group dropdown">
<button class="dropdown-toggle">Toggle</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Item 1</li>
<li>Item 2</li>
<li class="dropdown-submenu">
Sub List
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Submenu Item 1</li>
<li>Submenu Item 2</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
You can use the ng-bootstrap-submenu module to get the sub-menu you're looking for.
https://www.npmjs.com/package/ng-bootstrap-submenu
Here is a plnkr demonstrating it's usage.
<nav class="navbar navbar-default">
<div class="navbar-header">
<button class="navbar-toggle" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".navbar-collapse">
<span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
</button>
<a class="navbar-brand">ng-bootstrap-submenu</a>
</div>
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<bootstrap-submenu ng-repeat="item in menuItems" menu-item="item">
</bootstrap-submenu>
</ul>
</div>
</nav>
I've created a JSFiddle with a dropdown navbar using angular-ui-boostrap's module "ui.bootstrap.dropdownToggle": http://jsfiddle.net/mhu23/2pmz5/
<div class="navbar navbar-fixed-top">
<div class="navbar-inner">
<div class="container"> <a class="brand" href="#">
My Responsive NavBar
</a>
<ul class="nav">
<li class="divider-vertical"></li>
<li class="dropdown"> <a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle">
Menu 1 <b class="caret"></b>
</a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Entry 1
</li>
<li>Entry 2
</li>
</ul>
</li>
....
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
As far as I understand this is the proper, angular kind of way to implement such a dropdown menu. The "wrong" way, in terms of angularjs, would be to include bootstrap.js and to use "data-toggle="dropdown"... Am I right here?
Now I'd like to add responsive behaviour to my navbar as done in the following Fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/ghtC9/6/
BUT, there's something I don't like about the above solution. The guy included bootstrap.js!
So what would be the correct angular kind of way to add responsive behaviour to my existing navbar?
I obviously need to use bootstraps responsive navbar classes such as "nav-collapse collapse navbar-responsive-collapse". But I don't know how...
I'd really appreciate your help!
Thank you in advance!

Based on antoinepairet's comment/example:
Using uib-collapse attribute provides animations: http://plnkr.co/edit/omyoOxYnCdWJP8ANmTc6?p=preview
<nav class="navbar navbar-default" role="navigation">
<div class="navbar-header">
<!-- note the ng-init and ng-click here: -->
<button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" ng-init="navCollapsed = true" ng-click="navCollapsed = !navCollapsed">
<span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
</button>
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Brand</a>
</div>
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" uib-collapse="navCollapsed">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
...
</ul>
</div>
</nav>
Ancient..
I see that the question is framed around BS2, but I thought I'd pitch in with a solution for Bootstrap 3 using ng-class solution based on suggestions in ui.bootstrap issue 394:
The only variation from the official bootstrap example is the addition of ng- attributes noted by comments, below:
<nav class="navbar navbar-default" role="navigation">
<div class="navbar-header">
<!-- note the ng-init and ng-click here: -->
<button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" ng-init="navCollapsed = true" ng-click="navCollapsed = !navCollapsed">
<span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
</button>
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Brand</a>
</div>
<!-- note the ng-class here -->
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" ng-class="{'in':!navCollapsed}">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
...
Here is an updated working example: http://plnkr.co/edit/OlCCnbGlYWeO7Nxwfj5G?p=preview (hat tip Lars)
This seems to works for me in simple use cases, but you'll note in the example that the second dropdown is cut off.
You can do it using the "collapse" directive: http://jsfiddle.net/iscrow/Es4L3/
(check the two "Note" in the HTML).
<!-- Note: set the initial collapsed state and change it when clicking -->
<a ng-init="navCollapsed = true" ng-click="navCollapsed = !navCollapsed" class="btn btn-navbar">
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
</a>
<a class="brand" href="#">Title</a>
<!-- Note: use "collapse" here. The original "data-" settings are not needed anymore. -->
<div collapse="navCollapsed" class="nav-collapse collapse navbar-responsive-collapse">
<ul class="nav">
That is, you need to store the collapsed state in a variable, and changing the collapsed also by (simply) changing the value of that variable.
Release 0.14 added a uib- prefix to components:
https://github.com/angular-ui/bootstrap/wiki/Migration-guide-for-prefixes
Change: collapse to uib-collapse.
Not sure if anyone is having the same responsive issue, but it was just a simple css solution for me.
same example
... ng-init="isCollapsed = true" ng-click="isCollapsed = !isCollapsed"> ...
... div collapse="isCollapsed"> ...
with
#media screen and (min-width: 768px) {
.collapse{
display: block !important;
}
}
