Where to find angular-xeditable and ajax together work simple example

Question

Now, I am using angular-xeditable.I want to send edit data to server.

<div ng-controller="Ctrl">
        <a href="#" id='username' editable-text="user.name">{{ user.name || "empty" }}</a>
</div>

and js code is

    <script type="text/javascript">
    var app = angular.module("app", ["xeditable"]);


app.controller('Ctrl', function($scope,$http) {
    $scope.user = {
        name: 'awesome user'
    };  
       $http.post("<?php echo base_url(); ?>index.php/welcome/test", {"name":name})
      .success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
       $scope.data = data; 

      })
   .error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
   $scope.status = status;
});    

});
</script>

I received name variable is empty value. This code doesn't work.I can't find error.

You need to invoke your code that posts to the server on the onaftersave event, which is documented here: http://vitalets.github.io/angular-xeditable/#onaftersave

This event is called after the changes in the inputbox have been set on the model.

In your HTML put the function call in the onaftersave attribute like this:

<div ng-controller="Ctrl">
        <a href="#" id='username' onaftersave='postName()' editable-text="user.name">{{ user.name || "empty" }}</a>
</div>

In your controller create the postName function which actually posts the data to the server. Your code would look like this:

<script type="text/javascript">
    var app = angular.module("app", ["xeditable"]);


    app.controller('Ctrl', function ($scope, $http) {
        $scope.user = {
            name: 'awesome user'
        };

        // Called on the onaftersave event of xeditable
        $scope.postName = function () {
            $http.post("<?php echo base_url(); ?>index.php/welcome/test", {"name": $scope.user.name})
                    .success(function (data, status, headers, config) {
                        $scope.data = data;

                    })
                    .error(function (data, status, headers, config) {
                        $scope.status = status;
                    });
        }
    });
</script>
