Assign directive attributes to an element in template

Question

I have a directive which is supposed to make my select a little fancier:

angular.module(\'myDeadLine\')

    .directive(\'dcSelect\', function () {
        retur         


        

Answer 1

It is the valid scenario, but the resistance from Angular doesn't make it a trivial task to do. Usually replace: true is used to transfer all the attributes to the child template element. But select isn't a direct descendant, it is not an option.

The other possibility is to use terminal: true in conjunction with high priority, because ng-model, ng-options and any other attribute directives shouldn't be compiled on dc-select element. But terminal: true would also stop the bindings from working (in this case they have to be interpolated manually).

I guess the easiest way is

.directive('dcSelect', function ($compile) {
    return {
        restrict: 'E',
        scope: {
            label: '@',
            dcNgModel: '=',
            dcNgOptions: '='
        },
        transclude: true,
        templateUrl: '/web/_utils/dcselect/dcselect.html',
        link: function (scope, element, attrs) {
          var select = element.find('select');

          angular.forEach(attrs.$attr, function (name, normalizedName)  {
            if (!name.match(/^dc-/)) return;

            var val = scope.hasOwnProperty(normalizedName) ? normalizedName : element.attr(name);
            select.attr(name.replace(/^dc-/, ''), val);
          });

          $compile(select)(scope);
        }
    };
});
