I'm pretty new to Angular directives, and I'm having a lot of trouble getting this to do what I want. Here's the basics of what I have:
Controller:
controller('profileCtrl', function($scope) {
$scope.editing = {
'section1': false,
'section2': false
}
$scope.updateProfile = function() {};
$scope.cancelProfile = function() {};
});
Directive:
directive('editButton', function() {
return {
restrict: 'E',
templateUrl: 'editbutton.tpl.html',
scope: {
editModel: '=ngEdit'
}
};
});
Template (editbutton.tpl.html):
<button
ng-show=!editModel
ng-click=editModel=true></button>
<button
ng-show=editModel
ng-click=updateProfile(); editModel=false></button>
<button
ng-show=editModel
ng-click=cancelProfile(); editModel=false></button>
HTML:
<edit-button ng-edit=editing.section1></edit-button>
If it's not clear, I want the <edit-button> tag to contain with three different buttons, each interacting with whatever scope property is passed into ng-edit. When clicked, they should change that property then call the appropriate scope method.
The way it is now, clicking the buttons correctly changes the values of $scope.editing, but the updateProfile and cancelProfile methods don't work. I may be way off base on how to use directives properly, but I'm having trouble finding an example online to help me accomplish what I'm trying to do. Any help would be appreciated.
