How to load data into ngDialog
I have a requirement where I need to open a dialog from a jsp page and when the dialog opens I need to load it with some pre-filled data from the server (using an AJAX call). If I make an AJAX call before opening the dialog, I get the data, but the dialog is loaded as a new page. If I try to get data in a new controller, the dialog still doesn't reflect the data. What should I use to make sure the dialog reflects the data I am receiving from the server.
<div class="container-fluid" ng-controller="EditUserController">
<div class="text-center container-fluid">
<label class="sub-header">Edit User: {{userEmail}}</label>
</div>
<form action="editUser" method="post" name="editForm">
<div>
<div class="pull-right">
<label>Delete User</label><br> <a href="#"
class="btn btn-block btn-sm btn-danger" ng-click="deleteUser(userEmail)">{{userEmail}}</a>
</div>
<div>
<label>Change Role</label>
</div>
<div>
<label>
<input type="checkbox" ng-model="superVisor" name="superVisorFlag"
ng-true-value="1" ng-false-value="0" value="${existingUser.superVisorFlag}">
Make a Supervisor</label>
</div>
<div>
<input type="text" class="form-control" ng-model="email"
name="emailAddress" ng-disabled = "true"
ng-options="email for email in userEmail"
value="${existingUser.emailAddress}"
placeholder="Enter New User Email Address" bs-typeahead>
</div>
<div>
<input type="text" class="form-control" ng-model="firstName"
name="firstName" value="${existingUser.firstName}"
placeholder="Enter First Name" bs-typeahead>
</div>
<div>
<input type="text" class="form-control" ng-model="lastName"
name="lastName" value="${existingUser.lastName}"
placeholder="Enter Last Name" bs-typeahead>
</div>
<div>
<a href="#" class="btn btn-sm btn-primary" ng-click="saveChanges()">Save Changes</a>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="<c:url value="/resources/scripts/admin.js"/>"></script>
The above jsp is for dialog. Below is my js file -
var app = angular.module('scc-admin', [ 'ngDialog', 'mgcrea.ngStrap' ]);
app.factory("UserList", function() {
var UserList = {};
UserList.data = [ {
userId : 111,
userFirstName : "xxx",
userLastName : "yyy",
userEmail : "xxx.yyy@zzz.com",
userRole : "Admin"
}, {
userId : 222,
userFirstName : "second",
userLastName : "last",
userEmail : "second.last@zzz.com",
userRole : "Manager"
}];
return UserList;
});
app.controller('UserSettingsController', function($scope, ngDialog, UserList,$http) {
// variable for the bashboard list
$scope.userList = UserList;
$scope.editUser = function(userEmail) {
$scope.userEmail = userEmail;
ngDialog.open({
template : 'editUser' ,
className : 'ngdialog-theme-default',
controller : 'EditUserController',
closeByEscape : true,
scope : $scope
});
};
$scope.addUser = function() {
ngDialog.open({
template : 'addUser',
className : 'ngdialog-theme-default',
controller : 'AddUserController',
closeByEscape : true,
scope : $scope
});
};
});
app.controller('EditUserController', function($scope, ngDialog, $http) {
ngDialog.template = $scope.output;
ngDialog.$modelValue = $scope.output;
var responsePromise = $http.get("initUser?email=" + $scope.userEmail);
responsePromise.success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
$scope.output = data;
console.log(data);
});
console.log($scope);
$scope.deleteUser = function(){
$scope.cfdump = "";
var str = {emailAddress : $scope.userForm.emailAddress.$modelValue};
str = JSON.stringify(str);
var request = $http({
method: 'post',
url: "deleteUser?formData=" + str,
data: ({formData:str})
});
request.success(function(html){
alert("success");
});
request.error(function(errmsg){
alert("Unable to delete user");
});
}
});
I open a dialog in the usersettings controller and try to load it with default data. I tried to set up a new dialog template to output an AJAX call, it didn't work. What am I missing here?

After consulting the documentation, I found out the following solution. It should work for you as it does for me.
To pass data (JSON object) for ng model internally ngDialog
, you can declare yours ngDialog
like this.
ngDialog.open({
template: 'my-template.html',
className: 'ngdialog-theme-plain',
data: $scope.myJSONObject
});
Now that you've completed the part above, you need to bind the data in your ngDialog popup, so go ahead and put ngDialogData.myJSONObjectFieldName
in yours ng-model
.
Consider the following example for further development. Suppose we have myJSONObject
as follows.
myJSONObject={
first_name: 'John',
last_name: 'Doe'
};
To use first_name
inside your ngDialog ng-model
just put ng-model="ngDialogData.first_name"
.

To check if controller (VM) data is received in Modal Dialog,
<pre>{{vm|json}}</pre>
Module and controller:
var app = angular.module("DemoApp",['ngDialog']);
app.controller("DemoController",["$rootScope","ngDialog","productService",function($rootScope,ngDialog,productService){
var vm=this;
$rootScope.ngDialog = ngDialog; // to close Dialog using "ngDialog.close();" in ProductDialog.html
/* vm.products=[{brand:"Apple", price:60000, os:"iOS"},
{brand:"Samsung", price:35000, os:"Android"},
{brand:"Microsoft Lumia", price:30000, os:"Windows 10"}
];
*/
vm.getProductDetails=function() {
productService.getData().then(function (response) {
if (response.data) {
vm.products=response.data;
vm.ProdDialog();
}
});
};
vm.productPopup = function(x){
ngDialog.open({
template: 'ProductDialog.html',
className:'ProductDetailsDialog'
scope:$scope,
data:x,
closeByDocument:true
});
}
vm.getProductDetails();
}]);
Services:
app.factory("productService",["$http",function($http){
return {
getData: function() {
return $http.get("http://xxxxxxx/xxx/xxxxx");
}
};
}]);

/* <table>
