By default, any change to an input will trigger an immediate model update,
form validation and run a $digest. This is not always desirable, especially
when you have a large number of bindings to update.
This PR implements a new directive `ngModelOptions`, which allow you to
override this default behavior in several ways. It is implemented as an
attribute, to which you pass an Angular expression, which evaluates to an
**options** object.
All inputs, using ngModel, will search for this directive in their ancestors
and use it if found. This makes it easy to provide options for a whole
form or even the whole page, as well as specifying exceptions for
individual inputs.
* You can specify what events trigger an update to the model by providing
an `updateOn` property on the **options** object. This property takes a
string containing a space separated list of events.
For example, `ng-model-options="{ updateOn: 'blur' }"` will update the
model only after the input loses focus.
There is a special pseudo-event, called "default", which maps to the
default event used by the input box normally. This is useful if you
want to keep the default behavior and just add new events.
* You can specify a debounce delay, how long to wait after the last triggering
event before updating the model, by providing a `debounce` property on
the **options** object.
This property can be a simple number, the
debounce delay for all events. For example,
`ng-model-options="{ debounce: 500 }" will ensure the model is updated
only when there has been a period 500ms since the last triggering event.
The property can also be an object, where the keys map to events and
the values are a corresponding debounce delay for that event.
This can be useful to force immediate updates on some specific
circumstances (like blur events). For example,
`ng-model-options="{ updateOn: 'default blur', debounce: { default: 500, blur: 0} }"`
This commit also brings to an end one of the longest running Pull Requests
in the history of AngularJS (#2129)! A testament to the patience of @lrlopez.
Closes#1285, #2129, #6945
Right now, non-integers such as 'aawefwae' are valid.
This ensures that only integers are valid. Hopefully that makes the example more powerful.
Closes#5501
jQuery switched to a completely new event binding implementation as of
1.7.0, centering around on/off methods instead of previous bind/unbind.
This patch makes jqLite match this implementation while still supporting
previous bind/unbind methods.
we now have two types of namespaces:
- true namespace: angular.* - used for all global apis
- virtual namespace: ng.*, ngMock.*, ... - used for all DI modules
the virual namespaces have services under the second namespace level (e.g. ng.)
and filters and directives prefixed with filter: and directive: respectively
(e.g. ng.filter:orderBy, ng.directive:ngRepeat)
this simplifies urls and makes them a lot shorter while still avoiding name collisions
