Creating a modal window to load data with AngularJS

Question

I\'ve been trying to load data inside a modal window using AngularJS but I\'m not sure how to do that. I need the url also to change when the link is clicked and the data to loa

Answer 1

Not sure if this will completely solve your problem but we have a directive wrapper of the bootstrap modal on http://angular-ui.github.com/. Because you are defining your divs in your page, the two-way data binding should just work. In regards to the url link to change, I'm not sure why you would want this since this is a modal control.

Angular-ui group has an angularjs replacement of the js for modal and some other bootstrap controls see here

If you happen to be using Twitter BootStrap's modal, this jsfiddle keeps the Angular components separate, which allows you to create a partial html file with only your modal's html and properly scoped bindings.

This means you can use an Angular directive declaratively in your html:

 <a my-popup-directive="partials/myModal.html">Open MyModal</a> 

Edit: Per @DanDoyon's (correct) comment, the directive was renamed to a non-ng namespace. Update: Using a Bootstrap 3 modal with Angular 1.x makes a custom directive or angular-ui modal pretty much unnecessary.

Answer 3

The Angular way is view watching the model and you changing the model:

• Put the dialog into the markup.
• Bind content of the dialog to something like selectedPost.
• Clicking the link only change selectedPost and hide/show the dialog.

Here is a very quick version: http://plnkr.co/edit/0fsRUp?p=preview

Checkout Angular UI, they already have a component for Bootstrap's modal.
