I've created a site that has multiple panels that slide in from the right side of the screen.
I want to be able to put a link on each panel that will share my webpage, and when the user comes to the site, that specific panel will be open.
For example:
www.something.com/#/panel-1
Will show my page with panel-1 opened, while:
www.something.com/#/panel-2 will show my page with panel-2 opened.
What's the easiest way to do this? Can I use Ember,Angular, or Backbone's router and views with only simple html? Should I just use something like router.js?
Any help, advice, or links would be appreciated.
Of course you can do that. That's the one of the strongest qualities of ember.js. After declaring your routes, framework can generate all the corresponding controllers and views automatically (it's called convention over configuration). See an example
Ember.Application.create({});
Ember.Router.map(function(){
this.route('panel1');
this.route('panel2');
});
<script type="text/x-handlebars">
{{link-to 'index' 'index'}}
{{link-to 'first panel' 'panel1'}}
{{link-to 'second panel' 'panel2'}}
<!--your panels will be inserted automatically in the outlet property-->
{{outlet}}
</script>
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="panel1">
panel 1
</script>
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="panel2">
panel 2
</script>

I am completely new for ember mobile application.
I am trying to crate tab but i am not able to do it.
my .hbs file
<div class="tabpanel">
<div class="tabs">
<div {{action "goToFirstTab"}}>First tab</div>
<div {{action "goToSecondTab"}}>Second tab</div>
</div>
{{outlet}}
</div>
I have done tab with like when i tapped on it it will go at another screen.
I need it like when i will tap on tab it should be on same screen i.e. toggling.
Thanks in Advance.
I would recommend you to use nested routes for this.
So this is your router:
this.route('tabbing', function() {
this.route('tab1');
this.route('tab2');
});
and then in your tabbing.hbs:
<div class="tabpanel">
<div class="tabs">
{{#link-to 'tabbing.tab1' tagName="div"}}First tab{{/link-to}}
{{#link-to 'tabbing.tab2' tagName="div"}} Second tab{{/link-to}}
</div>
{{outlet}}
</div>
You put the tab content in your subroutes. So tab1.hbs and tab2.hbs. So the content of tabbing.hbs will always be present and the content of tab1 and tab2 will be toggled.
Here are some resources & addons about implementing Tabs in Ember :
ivy-tabs addon: tabs without routing (selecting a tab does not transition to route)
bootstrap-for-ember addon: a (very) more complete addon with tabs support (with and without routing)
IMHO using routes is always a best choice.
Here is also a more complete discussion about implementing Tabs with routes in Ember : http://discuss.emberjs.com/t/tabbed-ui-with-routing/7336
Hope it helps
So the concept is simple: You come to the app, you have a default template, with a default navigation element. You click a link in that navigation element it renders a new template: #/rails.
From here the default navigation needs to be hidden, and your new nav needs to be rendered.
The way i attempted to approach this, seems a bit silly: what I did was,
SG.Router.map(function(){
this.resource('rails');
});
$(document).ready(function() {
if($('#rails-nav').length !== 0){
$('#main-nav').hide();
}
});
Now the issue with this is that if you go from the default application template, to the rails template via the link - you get two navs unless you refresh that page. My friend stated that I should use something like:
{{outlet nav}} and then render a navigation based on template. The issue is I don't know how to set this up and I have been looking all over the ember site.
Could some one help me out?
If i understood correctly, when you say default template you mean the application template, where all other templates are rendered within its {{outlet}} helper.
There are several approaches to achieve what you want, but a simple one i think would be to use the index template as your default template. In this case evertyhting will be much simpler and work as you require, since you can specify whether the navigation element is shown by placing it inside a template or not.

<script type="text/x-handlebars">
<h2> Welcome to Ember.js</h2>
{{outlet}}
</script>
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="index">
This is the default template using <i>index</i>
<br/>
<br/>
<span style="background-color:grey">this is the nav part {{#link-to 'rails'}}go to rails{{/link-to}}</span>
</script>
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="rails">
this is the rails app
</script>
js
App = Ember.Application.create();
App.Router.map(function() {
this.resource("rails");
});
Also to make this answer a bit more relevant to the title of the question, in order to do something when a template has rendered one way would be to use the didInsertElement callback of the View class.
App.RailsView = Ember.View.extend({
didInsertElement:function(){
if($('#rails-nav').length !== 0){
$('#main-nav').hide();
}
}
});

I am building an Angular app and hitting a bit of a snag in how to handle the home page. The home page is 90% different - only the header stays the same - in there I have directives that show user login state for ex.
To make use of routing/templates etc I'd ideally like to have my ngview in the white area of sample shown - that all works fine - just not sure how to build the home page. It doesn't need an ngview area persay since it's the only one of it's kind. I don't want to make it as a second apps however as that seems wasteful and would reload everything.
Googling this brings up suggestions of replacing the white area with a directive but then I think I would lose the whole routing/template benefit.
Alternatives I have seen have code to determine if on home and load a body CSS class etc but that is not ideal either as the content is so different.
UI Router is a possibility but I'd like to avoid prebeta stuff if possible.
Suggestions?
You could have this:
index.html:
<body>
...header..
<div ng-if="isHomePage()">
<div ui-view></div>
</div>
<div ng-if="!isHomePage()">
<div ng-include="'shell.html'"></div>
</div>
...footer..
</body>
home.html (with route '/')
...your home page html...
shell.html (any route different than '/')
<div>
<div>
<div ui-view></div>
</div>
<aside><aside>
</div>
finally, add isHomePage() to your root scope
$rootScope.isHomePage = function() {
return $location.path() == '/';
};
I'm trying to dynamically include a template into my index.html. The general structure of index.html is:
<body>
<header ng-controller="Main">
<section>
<!-- global stuff -->
</section>
<section ng-include="moduleName + '/views/menubar.html'">
<!-- module-based stuff -->
</section>
</header>
<div id="view" ng-view></div>
</body>
Sample URL
example.com/<app_name>/index.html#/<module_name>[/method_name]
I can't figure out how to update $scope.moduleName when the route changes. My trouble is two-fold:
The header's controller is Main, not the controller associated with the view, so I can't? update $scope.moduleName from the view's controller (because Main and the view's controller are siblings).
In Main, I tried setting a $scope.$on('$routeChangeSuccess',…), but apparently it is not notified of route changes.
I've thought of setting up a $rootScope.$on listener (as described in SO#15355346) for the route change and broadcasting down to children, who then emit back up their route, which is broadcasted back down so it is available to Main. But that seems heinous.
And I would really prefer to keep the header outside of ng-view.
EDIT I noticed that $route.current.scope has an object named with module_name (possibly because the name of the controller associated with the route's module_name is the same). I'm wondering if I might be able to somehow use the name of that object…
It's hard to say what's wrong in your code without the full picture. Things you show look fine to me.
Please see this plunk I've created to display the ability to do it. Take note that you also can extend route objects with custom properties, like moduleName here:
$routeProvider.when('/page1', {
template: 'one',
controller: 'one',
moduleName: 'firstModule'
});
I've been trying to learn Ember.js for the last two weeks and I've really struggled. I'm hoping for an 'a-ha' moment but each new feature I try to implement always results in hours of failed testing. I just don't seem to be grasping the framework. I feel like I'm working against it. I'm hoping someone can explain a path forward through this simple example.
I am creating a web app that allows the user to pick products that they will sell to a client. There is a list of products they can chose from and then a list of products they've selected.
I imagine a left-column with navigation controls and a main column showing either the selected products or new products they can add to the order. Here is the basic template:
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="pc">
<div id="nav">{{outlet nav}}</div>
<div id="main">{{outlet main}}</div>
</script>
Here is the left navigation template:
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="nav">
<div class="button">{{#linkTo "pc.add"}}Add Products{{/linkTo}}</div>
</script>
Here is the selected products template:
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="selectedProducts">
{{#each p in controller}}
<div class="product">
<h4>{{p.name}}</h4>
</div>
{{/each}}
</script>
Here is the available products template:
<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="addProducts">
<div id="addProducts" class="addProducts">
{{#each p in controller}}
<div class="product">
<h4>{{p.name}}</h4>
</div>
{{/each}}
<button {{action "addSelectedProducts"}}>Add Selected Products</button>
<button {{action "back"}}>Back</button>
</div>
</script>
I can load the 'pc' template with some already selected products. Great. I can also navigate to the 'Add Products' template. Great. But when I click 'Add Selected Products', I can't figure out how to move the selected products into the controller/model behind the 'Selected Products' template and then get that template to re-render in place of the 'Add Products template'. It's really two question. How do I update the model of another controller from within a different controller? And, how do I then transition from an event to another route?
Can someone show me how you would design the Route(s) and Controllers? I know that's asking a lot. I"m mostly interested in seeing how you respond to an event in the AppProductsController, update SelectedProductsController's model, and then transition to SelectedProductsRoute and have it re-render the template.
I want to believe this is an amazing framework but I just keep hitting walls.

How do I update the model of another controller from within a different controller?
Connect controllers using the needs property. So something like:
//in AddProductsController
needs: ['selectedProducts']
addSelectedProducts: function() {
// Now selectedProductsController can be accessed via the controllers property
otherController = this.get('controllers.selectedProducts');
// add the selected ones...
}
See http://emberjs.com/guides/controllers/dependencies-between-controllers/
how do I then transition from an event to another route?
//in AddProductsController
this.transitionToRoute('blogPosts');
See http://emberjs.com/api/classes/Ember.Controller.html#method_transitionToRoute
