I'm using Select2 library for autocomplete(directive name) with angularjs single-page. But I have a trouble with get the text of selected option:
<!--$scope.testData = [{code:1, value:'Test1'}, {code:2, value:'Test2'}];-->
<select id="test" name="test" ng-model="test" autocomplete>
<option ng-repeat="obj in testData" value="{{obj.code}}">{{obj.value}}</option>
</select>
I'm using ng-repeat instead of ng-options because select2 plugin doesn't have support for that.
At this part I got the value of obj.code and save it on $scope.test, but, additionaly I need to save in a other variable the text of obj.value selected. How can I do this? Basically this is because I need to print in another step that value (not code) but I too need save the code.
Thanks for advance.
You would have to watch the test value (or ng-change if that's supported) and when it changes loop through your testData to find the object with the same code and then update your other variable for display.
Alternatively you could use ui-select which lets you set test to be the object then you can display the value or code as you need.

Having a lot of trouble with ng-repeat in a select tag. The below is not working for some reason though all documentation indicates that it should.
<select id="blahh" ng-model="log_instances" class="selectpicker" multiple>
<option>this works</option> <!-- this works -->
<option ng-repeat="comp in env.status.components">test-value</option>
</select>
The only option that ends up showing is the 'this works' one, but I would expect 'test-value' to show up for each of the items described in the ng-repeat's.
Additionally, I also checked the console for angular.element(document.getElementById('blahh')).scope() and it shows the proper data that I would expect to see. Also, if I include a table right below this select with the same ng-repeat's and fields, it produces the expected output just fine. I'm using Angular 1.6.5
Any help is appreciated!
The HTML snippet included with the original question had <span> tags as immediate children of the <select> tag, which would've produced invalid markup as only <option> or <optgroup> elements are permitted.
Whenever you have a data collection that needs to be presented as a select list, Angular's ng-options attribute makes it easy.
DEMO
Also, if you need a default option (for when the collection data might be in transit due to an AJAX request), include an <option> element assigned with an empty value (i.e. value=""), then you could use ng-if to hide this default option when it is no longer necessary.
Use ng-options like below. But your code also should work check env.status.components
<select ng-options="item as item.label for item in items track by item.id" ng-model="selected"></select>
My question to you would be, why do you want to use a ng-repeat inside a multiple select, when you have ng-options handy?
Assuming your comp object looks like this:
{
name: 'somevalue'
}
I would change your code to look like so:
<select id="blahh" multiple="true" ng-model="log_instances" ng-options="comp.name for comp in env.status.components"></select>
Please have a look at the plunker demo I have made for you
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
I want use select in angularjs.
I have a json that every element have 2 part: name and value. I want show name in dropdown and when user select one of theme, value is copy to ng-model.
$scope.list = [{name:"element1",value:10},{name:"element2",value:20},{name:"element3",value:30}];
For this I have 2 way to use select:
ng-options:
I use ng-options like below:
<select ng-model="model.test" ng-options="element.name for element in list"></select>
It's work correctly, but when I select each of element, I want just value of element is copy to ng-model, but a json is copy to ng-model, like below:
$scope.model.test = {name:"element1",value:1}
I can resolve this problem in angular controller, but I want find a better way that resolve this problem.
For resolove this problem, I use second way:
2.use ng-repeat in options:
<select ng-model="model.test">
<option ng-repeat="element in list" value="{{element.value}}">{{element.name}}</option>
</select>
In second way, just value is copy to ng-model, but as a string type:
$scope.model.test = "10";
I use below code, but all of them return a string value to model.
<option ng-repeat="element in list" value={{element.value}}>{{element.name}}</option>
<option ng-repeat="element in list" value="{{element.value}}|number:0">{{element.name}}</option>
<option ng-repeat="element in list" value={{element.value}}|number:0>{{element.name}}</option>
How can fix this problem?
you can resolve it with ng-options as well
ng-options="element.value as element.name for element in list"
please read this blog to understand more about ng-options.
Also another advantage of ng-options is, it binds the object as opposed to json string in case you want to attach the selected object to ng-model.
Have you tried this :
<select ng-model="model.test" ng-options="element.value element.name for element in list"></select>
btw, if you may have hundreds of records into your list, you should create your own directive, where you would manipulate your DOM with a simple javascript for loop
ng-repeat will be slow to be rendered,
ng-options adds every record into $watch.
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
