How to use ng-click with multiple expressions?

I want to use ng-click to perform multiple expressions. I want to both set a value on a model, and call a method from the $scope, like this:

<a ng-click="navigation.book = book && bookSvc.showBook(book)" href="#{{book.id}}">{{book.title}}</a>

Where I have && separating the two different expressions I want to perform. I know I could just add a method that does both things in the controller. Should I just do that, or is there a way to perform two expressions directly from inside ng-click?

Solution

  • Simply using ';' instead of '&&' to separate the expression should work for you:

    <a ng-click="navigation.book = book; bookSvc.showBook(book)" href="#{{book.id}}">{{book.title}}</a>
