Binding Angularjs select items to model using property of item - javascript

I have a collection as follows:
$scope.TeamType = [
{
"name": "Beginner",
"value": 0
},
{
"name": "Novice",
"value": 1
},
{
"name": "Expert",
"value": 2
},
{
"name": "Masters",
"value": 3
}];
I also have a variable in my controller:
$scope.SelectedTeamType = 0;
I am trying to use these items in the following statement
<select ng-model="SelectedTeamType" ng-options="v as v.name for v in TeamType track by v.value"></select>
I would like the select to init with the corresponding value in the model and save the value to the model when select changes. I am not sure why the model SelectedTeamType is getting the entire object stored to it instead of the v.value and why it isnt initializing with beginner.

As per comment I need to keep $scope.SelectedTeamType as an integer value
Use
<select
ng-model="SelectedTeamType"
ng-options="v.value as v.name for v in TeamType"
></select>
DEMO
Its storing object due to expression which you have provided in ngOptions.
You need to bind object, use
$scope.SelectedTeamType = $scope.TeamType[0];
better
$scope.SelectedTeamType = $scope.TeamType.filter(function(t) {
return t.value == 0;
});

How to make linked(dynamic?) select fields in oracle jet?

Im very new to JS and OJET. I'm using oracle jet to create a form. I need to create two select fields, the firts displays a client's name and the next one must change is values with the selected client's team members.
I have a JSON File with this format:
{
"clients": [
{
"id": "C01",
"name": "Client 1",
"manager": "Manager 1",
"team": [
{
"id": "C1MEM1",
"name": "member 1"
},
{
"id": "C1MEM2",
"name": "member 2"
},
{
"id": "C1MEM3",
"name": "member 3"
},
{
"id": "C1MEM4",
"name": "Member 4"
}
]
},
{
"id": "C02",
"name": "Client 2",
"manager": "Manager 2",
"team": [
{
"id": "C2MEM1",
"name": "member 1"
},
{
"id": "C2MEM2",
"name": "member 2"
},
{
"id": "C2MEM3",
"name": "member 3"
},
{
"id": "C2MEM4",
"name": "member 4"
}
]
}
I managed to create a select field with the clients name:
self.clientsListVal = ko.observableArray(['C01']);
self.clientsList = ko.observableArray();
$.getJSON("http://localhost:8000/js/json/clients.json").
then(function(data){
$.each(data["clients"],function(){
self.clientsList.push({
value: this.id,
label: this.name
});
});
});
Then I tried to get the next select fields this way, but it doesn't work :( :
self.memberList = ko.observableArray();
$.getJSON("http://localhost:8000/js/json/clients.json").
then(function(data){
$.each(data["clients"],function(){
if (this.id === self.clientsListVal ) {
$.each(this["team"], function(){
self.memberList.push({
value: this.id,
label: this.name
});
});
}
});
});
This is the HTML im using:
<div class="oj-applayout-content">
<div role="main" class="oj-hybrid-applayout-content">
<div class="oj-hybrid-padding">
<h3>Dashboard Content Area</h3>
<div>
<label for="clients">Clients</label>
<select id="clients"
data-bind="ojComponent:
{component: 'ojSelect',
options: clientsList,
value: clientsListVal,
rootAttributes: {style:'max-width:20em'}}">
</select>
<label for="select-value">Current selected value is</label>
<span id="select-value" data-bind="text: clientsListVal"></span>
<label for="members">Members</label>
<select id="members"
data-bind="ojComponent: {component: 'ojSelect',
options: memberList,
value: memberListVal,
rootAttributes: {style:'max-width:20em'}}">
</select>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Any help or hint? thank you!.
EDIT:
I think the problem is that self.clientsListVal is returning a function not the current selected value. I added console.log(self.clientsListVal) to the view model to see the current value.
If I change self.clientsListVal for a string:
if(this.id === 'C01'){}
I get the members of the client "C01".
I tried changing self.clientsListVal to $('#clients').val(), this is the id of the select input and i get undefined in the console.log.
How can I get the select field string value inside the viewmodel?
In Knockout, observables are functions -- so when you ask for the observable directly, like self.clientsListVal, you get the function definition. To get the underlying value, call the observable like a function: self.clientsListVal().
So your test becomes if (this.id === self.clientsListVal() ) {
Now you have another problem -- the observable holds an array, not an ID. The array may have a single ID element in it, but you have to reach into the array to get it.
Since you didn't show us how a value gets into clientsListVal, it's hard to say what you need to do. Is it bound to an input field where the user specifies a value? Is it populated from a data call? either way, do you ever need to have more than one ID in clientsListVal? If you only need to hold one ID at a time, change clientsListVal from an observableArray to a simple observable and your test will work.
If clientsListVal can hold multiple values, you'll need to loop over them. There are various ways to do this. You can get the underlying array by assigning the value of the observableArray to a variable: var clients = clientsListVal(). clients now holds the array, and you can use jQuery's $.each, the native Array.each, or some other way to loop over or map the array. Or you can use Knockout's built-in array utilities, like arrayForEach
if you don't want to change to a regular observable but expect the array to only have a single element, you can get at it like clientsListVal()[0] -- that's the 0th (first) element of the array. Watch out for empty arrays, tho.

Render a directive with two datasources

My problem is a bit complex, so i will try to explain it as detailed as possible.
I have a directive in a SPA that render their components based on a JSON data that i'm getting from an API. Based on the elements and their types (the JSON is an array of different objects) i'm rendering every object in an specific directive:
Objects Type 1: Renders in a Directive Type 1.
Objects Type 2: Renders in a Directive Type 2.
Objects Type 3: Renders in a Directive Type 3.
Directives Type 1-2-3 are contained in the parent directive and every directive has different controls (select, checkbox). This is a very simple Sketch:
And the "sub-directives":
I'm rendering my elements as follows (Container directive):
<div ng-repeat="element in elementList | customFilter:itemsType1">
<div class="line"></div>
<div class="form-group">
<directivetype1 itemdata="element" modeldata="data"></directivetype1>
</div>
</div>
<div ng-repeat="element in elementList | customFilter:itemsType2">
<div class="line"></div>
<div class="form-group">
<directivetype2 itemdata="element" modeldata="data"></directivetype2>
</div>
</div>
...
And this is the Directive 1 code:
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="form-group">
<div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-3">
<div class="checkbox">
<label><input type="checkbox"/>{{itemdata.metadata.description}}</label>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 col-sm-3">
<label>Option</label>
<select class="form-control" ng-model="" ng-options="list.id as list.label for list in item.optionData"></select>
</div>
</div>
</div>
My problem goes when i try to attach the model to every element rendered, because of:
The model data comes from another API, in another structure.
I'm iterating the list of controls with ng-repeat, but, when i pass the model data to the sub-directive i'm passing all the possible data (as Array) and i'm not being capable of filter and know what object in that array belongs to an specific view element.
The data has the following structure:
View data:
[
{
"elementA": {
"metadata": {
"id": "001",
"subId": "016",
"description": "Element 1"
},
"optionData": [
{
"id": "5",
"label": "Option 1"
},
{
"id": "6",
"label": "Option 2"
},
{
"id": "7",
"label": "Option 3"
}
]
}
},
{
"elementB": {
"metadata": {
"id": "002",
"subId": "024",
"description": "Element 2"
},
"optionData": [
{
"id": "1",
"label": "Option 1"
},
{
"id": "2",
"label": "Option 2"
},
{
"id": "3",
"label": "Option 3"
}
]
}
}
]
Model data:
[
{
"metadata": {
"id": "002",
"subId": "024",
"description": "Element 2",
"selected": "1"
},
...(Some other data belonging to the model)
},
{
"metadata": {
"id": "001",
"subId": "016",
"description": "Element 1",
"selected": "5"
},
...(Some other data belonging to the model)
},
...
]
As you can see, the only way to correlate both models is with id and subId Fields in the metadata object (because the metadata itself can vary having more or less fields).
QUESTION
How can i filter my model object, based on the view object? My goal is to get the model object that correlates to the view object and pass it to the sub-directive for setting it as the model of the control that i'm rendering at that point.
EDIT:
As cmw pointed out, i've coded a function to correlate every model object with their respective view object, but that object is not reflected in the directive scope. itemdata and modeldata are passed to the directive using a bi-directional scope ('='). I think (but i'm not entirely sure) that, when i pass a function to modeldata the directive is not being capable of setting the returned object. The solution that i've coded based on the cmw answer is as follows:
Directive:
<directivetype1 itemdata="element" modeldata="getModelObject(data)"></directivetype1>
JS (coded in the Ctrl of the parent):
$scope.getModelObject = function(element){
var id = typeof element.metadata === 'undefined' ? null : element.metadata.id;
var subid = typeof element.metadata === 'undefined' ? null : element.metadata.subid;
var modelElement = null;
for (var i = 0; i < $scope.data.length; i += 1){
element = $scope.data[i];
if (modelElement.metadata.id === id && modelElement.metadata.subid === id) return element;
}
return null;
};
But when i try to work in the directive with modeldata i see "null" in FF/Chrome Console.
Any guideline to know what's happening?
Thanks.
EDIT 2:
I've added a version of my code here: http://plnkr.co/edit/xjp1l3PuWczdqYf5LP8q?p=preview. Sadly, in that Plunkr it works as expected but my code does not (i'm expecting to see the output of <h1>{{modeldata}}</h1>). I'm comparing the two versions to see any difference (note that i've included the same AngularJS version that i'm using in my project).
As you've pointed out, I believe the key is simply to make use of the id and subId properties on the meta object.
Something like this would probably work...
<div ng-repeat="element in elementList | customFilter:itemsType1">
<div class="line"></div>
<div class="form-group">
<directivetype1 itemdata="element" modeldata="modelDataFor(element)">
</directivetype1>
</div>
</div>
Then, in your controller, define a function like the following...
$scope.modelDataFor = function (element) {
var id = element.meta.id,
subId = element.meta.subId,
curr;
for (var i = 0; i < $scope.data.length; i += 1) {
curr = $scope.data[i];
if (curr.meta.id === id && curr.meta.subId === subId) {
return curr;
}
}
return null;
}
This seems like the most natural place to pluck out the relative data model object to pass into your nested directives.

Splice from ng-options in select drop downusing filter

How can I splice some elements in an array to display it in ng options
Heres the JSON
$scope.result=[
{
"id": 1,
"name": "min",
},
{
"id": 2,
"name": "hour",
},
{
"id": 3,
"name": "second",
},
{
"id": 4,
"name": "inch",
},
{
"id": 5,
"name": "km",
}
]
I want to splice inch and km from the array and display it it select dropdown
<select ng-options="r.id as r.name for r in result"><option value="">--Select---</option></select>
Have also tries inline filter that will only display based on id's like tihis <select ng-options="r.id as r.name for r in result|filter:{id:'!4'}"><option value="">--Select---</option>
</select>
But this will splice only one element ie.,with id:5(km).I want to splice id:4 as well
Use native javascript filter for your work
var newResult = $scope.result.filter(function(obj){
return obj.name === 'km' || obj.name === 'inch';
});
console.log(newResult); // will give expected result.
You can assign the result of filter to the key in scope on which you want to loop.

Complex JSON string Parsing in JavaScript

This is my sample JSON file , which im trying to parse and read the values ....
C = {{
"Travel": {
"ServiceProvider": {
"Name": "SRS",
"Rating": "3 stars",
"Rates": "Nominal",
"Features": {
"OnlineBooking": "Yes",
"SMS_Ticket": "No"
},
"UserDetails": {
"Name": "Jack",
"Age": "33",
"Gender": "Male"
}
},
"BusProvider": {
"Name": "SRS",
"Rating": "3 stars",
"Rates": "Nominal",
"Features": {
"OnlineBooking": "Yes",
"SMS_Ticket": "No"
},
"UserDetails": {
"Name": "Jack",
"Age": "33",
"Gender": "Male"
}
}
}
}
I'm pretty new to JS , and i need to access the nested elements in a generic fashion.
Im not able to extract the details properly. Im getting stuck accessing nested the child elements.
The problem for me is that i wont always know the names of the "key's' to acess them , the JSON will be dynamic , hence i need a generic mechanism to acess the nested child elements. The Nesting can go upto 3 -4 levels.
what notation do we use to access the key / value pairs when the nesting is deep.
Any Help would be appreciated.
ater desirializing your object you can do this
var resultJSON = '{"name":"ricardo","age":"23"}';
var result = $.parseJSON(resultJSON);
$.each(result, function(k, v) {
//display the key
alert(k + ' is the key)
}
you can do it using recursively offcourse like this - Link Here
the way is the same just adapt to your example
For dynamic access you can use brackets notation i.e. var json = {nonKnown: 1}; now you can access it like that:
var unknowPropertyName = "nonKnown";
var value = json[unknownPropertyName];
But if you can not even define dynamically name of the property, then you should use
for(variableName in json){
if(json.hasOwnProperty(variableName)){
console.log(variableName);
}
}
You should get the basic idea from this. Good luck

Fill dropdown list with json

I have SQLite table with columns id and name. I return array of those rows like json from autocomplete.php page. How to fill select with options ( drop down list ) with this json using jquery and JavaScript ? I am new to JavaScript and JQuery, I googled but didn't find how. In ASP.NET this is easy but here I don't know. Would somebody help ?
This is example of my JSON, can be much longer.
[
{
"id": "1",
"name": "test"
},
{
"id": "1",
"name": "test"
}
]
HTML:
<select id="sel">
</select>
JavaScript:
$(function() {
var data = [
{
"id": "1",
"name": "test1"},
{
"id": "2",
"name": "test2"}
];
$.each(data, function(i, option) {
$('#sel').append($('<option/>').attr("value", option.id).text(option.name));
});
})
Here's a working example. http://jsfiddle.net/ms2Ma/
Try this, This will give you an option to have any number of dropdown boxes and JSON nodes to configure dropdown boxes.
You need to follow few steps:
Create an array of dropdown boxes.(e.g. if you have to configure a phone then you should be using dropdown of color, memory etc.)
Create a JSON object as it is created in code. Dont change the configurable items name which starts with "level1" and end with any number of nodes, As it has to be sync with the index of items of array you are creating in the first place.
Here is the data:
var Dropdowns = ["Model", "Color", "Memory","design","covers","music"];
var Data ={"phones":[
{
"oid":":000000F0:00000458:",
"level1":"3G",
"level2":"white",
"level3":"16GB",
"level4":"slim",
"level5":"Back cover",
"level6":"headphone",
"price":"£568.63",
"addToCart":"#Cart1"
},
{
"oid":":000000F0:000003DA:",
"level1":"3G",
"level2":"black",
"level3":"16GB",
"level4":"slim",
"level5":"Flip cover",
"level6":"headphone",
"price":"£615.79",
"addToCart":"#Cart7"
}]};
See the full working code here:
https://jsfiddle.net/raju_sumit/681ppgq0/5/
Try this :)
Javascript:
$.getJSON("/array.json",
function (json) {
$.each(json,
function (key, value) {
$("#id-select").append("<option value='" + value.c + "'>" + value.d + "</option>");
});
});
A pure Javascript solution: this snippet shows how to populate a dropdown select from JSON data (using id as value and name as text.
The code creates a new Option object for each item in the JSON data and appends it to the select element with appendChild(). map is used in place of a for loop.
let data = [{
"id": "1",
"name": "name_1"
},
{
"id": "2",
"name": "name_2"
}
];
var selectElement = document.getElementById('mySelect');
data.map(item => mySelect.appendChild(new Option(item.name, item.id)).cloneNode(true));
<select id="mySelect" onchange="alert(this.value)"></select>
