@ngdoc overview
@name Cookbook: Form
@description
A web application's main purpose is to present and gather data. For this reason angular strives
to make both of these operations trivial. This example shows off how you can build a simple form to
allow a user to enter data.
<doc:example>
<doc:source>
<script>
function FormController(){
this.user = {
name: 'John Smith',
address:{line1: '123 Main St.', city:'Anytown', state:'AA', zip:'12345'},
contacts:[{type:'phone', value:'1(234) 555-1212'}]
};
this.state = /^\w\w$/;
this.zip = /^\d\d\d\d\d$/;
}
</script>
<div ng:controller="FormController" class="example">
<label>Name:</label><br/>
<input type="text" name="user.name" ng:required/> <br/><br/>
<label>Address:</label><br/>
<input type="text" name="user.address.line1" size="33" ng:required/> <br/>
<input type="text" name="user.address.city" size="12" ng:required/>,
<input type="text" name="user.address.state" size="2" ng:required ng:validate="regexp:state"/>
<input type="text" name="user.address.zip" size="5" ng:required ng:validate="regexp:zip"/><br/><br/>
<label>Phone:</label>
[ <a href="" ng:click="user.contacts.$add()">add</a> ]
<div ng:repeat="contact in user.contacts">
<select name="contact.type">
<option>email</option>
<option>phone</option>
<option>pager</option>
<option>IM</option>
</select>
<input type="text" name="contact.value" ng:required/>
[ <a href="" ng:click="user.contacts.$remove(contact)">X</a> ]
</div>
<hr/>
Debug View:
<pre>user={{user}}</pre>
</div>
</doc:source>
<doc:scenario>
it('should show debug', function(){
expect(binding('user')).toMatch(/John Smith/);
});
it('should add contact', function(){
using('.example').element('a:contains(add)').click();
using('.example div:last').input('contact.value').enter('you@example.org');
expect(binding('user')).toMatch(/\(234\) 555\-1212/);
expect(binding('user')).toMatch(/you@example.org/);
});
it('should remove contact', function(){
using('.example').element('a:contains(X)').click();
expect(binding('user')).not().toMatch(/\(234\) 555\-1212/);
});
it('should validate zip', function(){
expect(using('.example').element(':input[name=user.address.zip]').attr('className'))
.not().toMatch(/ng-validation-error/);
using('.example').input('user.address.zip').enter('abc');
expect(using('.example').element(':input[name=user.address.zip]').attr('className'))
.toMatch(/ng-validation-error/);
});
it('should validate state', function(){
expect(using('.example').element(':input[name=user.address.state]').attr('className'))
.not().toMatch(/ng-validation-error/);
using('.example').input('user.address.state').enter('XXX');
expect(using('.example').element(':input[name=user.address.state]').attr('className'))
.toMatch(/ng-validation-error/);
});
</doc:scenario>
</doc:example>
# Things to notice
* The user data model is initialized {@link angular.directive.@ng:controller controller} and is available in
the {@link angular.scope scope} with the initial data.
* For debugging purposes we have included a debug view of the model to better understand what
is going on.
* The {@link angular.widget.HTML input widgets} simply refer to the model and are auto bound.
* The inputs {@link angular.validator validate}. (Try leaving them blank or entering non digits
in the zip field)
* In your application you can simply read from or write to the model and the form will be updated.
* By clicking the 'add' link you are adding new items into the `user.contacts` array which are then
reflected in the view.
