I am displaying some data on my html page inside a div using ng-repeat. Inside the div I have a button in order to hide the content of each div seperately.Here is a simplified version of my html file.
<body ng-app="task" ng-controller="repeat">
<div ng-repeat='x in array' ng-show="{{ x.show }}">
<p>{{ x.text }}
</p>
<button ng-click="toggle()">Hide</button>
</div>
</body>
the code in my .js file is as follows
var app = angular.module('task');
app.controller('repeat',function($scope){
$scope.array = [{
show: true,
text:'Sample Text 1'},
{
show: true,
text:'Sample Text 2'},
{
show: true,
text:'Sample Text 3'}];
$scope.toggle = function(){
$scope.array.show = false ;
};
})
Can anyone suggest me the required changes so that on clicking the button inside my div , that particular div gets hidden.
I think I am committing a mistake in referencing the particular element of the array while calling the function toggle() through ng-click
Put your element as an argument in toggle function.
<button ng-click="toggle(x)">Hide</button>
and change it in controller like this:
$scope.toggle = function(x){
x.show = !x.show;
};
And easy to achieve this without calling the function in the controller:
<body ng-app="task" ng-controller="repeat">
<div ng-repeat='x in array' ng-show="showDetail">
<p>{{ x.text }}</p>
<button ng-click="showDetail != showDetail">Hide</button>
</div>
</body>
The method above will also hide the button if you click hide. If you want to hide your content and show it again, the following code can achieve that:
<body ng-app="task" ng-controller="repeat>
<div ng-repeat='x in array'>
<div class="content" ng-show="showContent">
<p>{{ x.text }}</p>
</div>
<div class='btn btn-control'>
<button ng-click="showContent != showContent"> Hide </button>
</div>
</div>
</body>
Well I found a way to actually cater my needs , thank you all for your suggestions. Here is the code I actually used:
<body ng-app="task" ng-controller="repeat">
<div ng-repeat='x in array' ng-hide="x.show">
<p>{{ x.text }}
</p>
<button ng-click="toggle($index)">Hide</button>
</div>
</body>
and in my js file I used it like this:
var app = angular.module('task');
app.controller('repeat',function($scope){
$scope.array = [{
show: true,
text:'Sample Text 1'},
{
show: true,
text:'Sample Text 2'},
{
show: true,
text:'Sample Text 3'}];
$scope.toggle = function(){
$scope.array[index].show = false ;
};
})
In your html pass
<button ng-click="toggle(x.$index)">Hide</button>
While in js
$scope.toggle = function(index){
$scope.array[index].show = !$scope.array[index].show;
};
