h2#section-responding-to-user-input Responding to user input with event syntax
|
|
|
|
p.
|
|
You can make your application respond to user input by using the event syntax. The event syntax starts with an event name surrounded by parenthesis: <code>(event)</code>. A controller function is then assigned to the event name: <code>(event)="controllerFn()"</code>.
|
|
p.
|
|
For a particular control like an input you can have it call methods on your controller on keyup event like so:
|
|
|
|
code-example(language="html").
|
|
<input (keyup)="myControllerMethod()">
|
|
|
|
h3#local-variables Local variables
|
|
p.
|
|
As in previous examples, you can make element references available to other parts of the template as a local
|
|
variable using the <code>#var</code> syntax. With this and events, we can do the old "update text as you type" example:
|
|
|
|
code-example(language="html").
|
|
<input #myname (keyup)>
|
|
<p>{{myname.value}}</p>
|
|
|
|
p.text-body(ng-non-bindable).
|
|
The <code>#myname</code> creates a local variable in the template that we'll refer to below in the
|
|
<code><p></code> element. The <code>(keyup)</code> tells Angular to trigger updates when it gets a keyup
|
|
event. And the <code>{{myname.value}}</code> binds the text node of the <code><p></code> element to the
|
|
input's value property.
|
|
p Let's do something a little more complex where users enter items and add them to a list like this:
|
|
|
|
figure.image-display
|
|
img(src='/resources/images/examples/user-input-example1.png' alt="Example of Todo App")
|
|
|
|
|
|
.l-ain-section
|
|
h2#section-create-an-array-property Create an array property
|
|
p.
|
|
With the default bootstrapping in place, create a controller class that will manage interactions with the
|
|
list. Inside the controller, add an array with an initial list of items. Then add a method that pushes new items
|
|
on the array when called.

constructor() {

function TodoList() {
|

this.todos = ["Eat Breakfast", "Walk Dog", "Breathe"];
|

this.addTodo = function(todo) {
|

this.todos.push(todo);
|
|
};

header Production Best Practice
|
|
p.
|
|
As with the previous example, in a production application you will separate your model out into another class
|
|
and inject it into <code>TodoList</code>. We've omitted it here for brevity.
|
|
|
|
.l-main-section
|
|
h2#section-display-the-list-of-todos Display the list of todos
|
|
p.
|
|
Using the <code>*for</code> iterator, create an <code><li></code> for each item in the todos array and set
|
|
its text to the value.
|
|
|
|
code-example(language="html" format="linenums").
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li *for="#todo of todos">
|
|
{{ todo }}
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
.l-main-section
|
|
h2#section-add-todos-to-the-list Add todos to the list via button click
|
|
p.
|
|
Now, add a text input and a button for users to add items to the list. As you saw above, you can create a local
|
|
variable reference in your template with <code>#varname</code>. Call it <code>#todotext</code> here.
|
|
|
|
code-example(language="html" format="linenums").
|
|
<input #todotext>
|
|
p.
|
|
Lastly, specify the target of the click event binding as your controller's <code>addTodo()</code> method and pass
|
|
it the value. Since you created a reference called <code>todotext</code>, you can get the value with
|
|
<code>todotext.value.</code>
|
|
|
|
code-example(language="html" format="linenums").
|
|
<button (click)="addTodo(todotext.value)">Add Todo</button>
|
|
|
|
p And then create the <code>doneTyping()</code> method on TodoList and handle adding the todo text.
|
|
|
|
code-example(language="javascript" format="linenums").
|
|
doneTyping($event) {
|
|
if($event.which === 13) {
|
|
this.addTodo($event.target.value);
|
|
$event.target.value = null;
|
|
}
|
|
}
