Passing Data to Twitter Bootstrap Modal in Angular


I want to show a modal box asking the user if they want to delete a post or not. I can't figure out how to pass the key which I pass in the key argument in which I also can alert.

I took the code from the angular twitterbootstrap site but I can't figure out a method to pass data to confirm the remove.

Thanks Mohammad

$scope.deletePost = function(key, post, event) {
    alert(key);
    var modalInstance = $modal.open({
        templateUrl: 'deletePost.html',
        controller: ModalInstanceCtrl,
        resolve: {
            items: function() {
                return $scope.posts;
            }
        },
    })

    modalInstance.result.then(function(selectedItem) {
        $scope.selected = selectedItem;
        alert(selectedItem);
    });
};


var ModalInstanceCtrl = function($scope, $modalInstance, items) {
    $scope.items = items;
    $scope.selected = {
        item: $scope.items[0]
    };
    $scope.ok = function() {
        $modalInstance.close($scope.selected.item);
    };

    $scope.cancel = function() {
        $modalInstance.dismiss('cancel');
    };
};

Solution

  • Send the key via resolve as a parameter (see plunker):

    angular.module('plunker', ['ui.bootstrap']);
    var ModalDemoCtrl = function ($scope, $modal, $log) {
    
      var key = 1000;
      $scope.items = ['item1', 'item2', 'item3'];
    
      $scope.open = function () {
    
        var modalInstance = $modal.open({
          templateUrl: 'myModalContent.html',
          controller: ModalInstanceCtrl,
          resolve: {
            items: function () {
              return $scope.items;
            },
            key: function() {return key; }
          }
        });
    
        modalInstance.result.then(function (selectedItem) {
          $scope.selected = selectedItem;
        }, function () {
          $log.info('Modal dismissed at: ' + new Date());
        });
      };
    };
    
    // Please note that $modalInstance represents a modal window (instance) dependency.
    // It is not the same as the $modal service used above.
    
    var ModalInstanceCtrl = function ($scope, $modalInstance, items, key) {
    
      alert("The key is " + key)
      $scope.items = items;
      $scope.selected = {
        item: $scope.items[0]
      };
    
      $scope.ok = function () {
        $modalInstance.close($scope.selected.item);
      };
    
      $scope.cancel = function () {
        $modalInstance.dismiss('cancel');
      };
    };
