Here's an example in an Angular directive (since SweetAlert is offered through an angular directive wrapper). This is one 'elegant' method for doing this in JavaScript. On a click event, there is an e.stopImmediatePropagation(), then if the user confirms, it evaluates the "ng-click" function. (Note scope.$eval is not a JavaScript eval()).
Markup:
Simple "confirm click" directive:
/**
* Confirm click, e.g.
*/
angular.module('myApp.directives').directive('confirmClick', [
'SweetAlert',
function (SweetAlert) {
return {
priority: -1,
restrict: 'A',
link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
element.bind('click', function (e) {
e.stopImmediatePropagation();
e.preventDefault();
var message = attrs.confirmClick || 'Are you sure you want to continue?';
SweetAlert.swal({
title: message,
type: 'warning',
showCancelButton: true,
closeOnConfirm: true,
closeOnCancel: true
}, function (isConfirm) {
if (isConfirm) {
if(attrs.ngClick) {
scope.$eval(attrs.ngClick);
}
} else {
// Cancelled
}
});
});
}
}
}
]);
