When `multiple` attribute is set on a `<select>` control and the model value is an empty array,
we should invalidate the control. Previously, this directive was using incorrect logic for
determining if the model was empty.
Closes#5337
`checkboxInputType` and `ngList` directives need to have special logic for whether
they are empty or not. Previously this had been hard coded into their
own directives or the `ngRequired` directive. This made it difficult to handle
these special cases.
This change factors out the question of whether an input is empty into a method
`$isEmpty` on the `ngModelController`. The `ngRequired` directive now uses this
method when testing for validity and directives, such as `checkbox` or `ngList`
can override it to apply logic specific to their needs.
Closes#3490, #3658, #2594
Objects received from outside AngularJS may have had their `hasOwnProperty`
method overridden with something else. In cases where we can do this without
incurring a performance penalty we call directly on Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty
to ensure that we use the correct method.
Also, we have some internal hash objects, where the keys for the map are provided
from outside AngularJS. In such cases we either prevent `hasOwnProperty` from
being used as a key or provide some other way of preventing our objects from
having their `hasOwnProperty` overridden.
BREAKING CHANGE: Inputs with name equal to "hasOwnProperty" are not allowed inside
form or ngForm directives.
Before, inputs whose name was "hasOwnProperty" were quietly ignored and not added
to the scope. Now a badname exception is thrown.
Using "hasOwnProperty" for an input name would be very unusual and bad practice.
Either do not include such an input in a `form` or `ngForm` directive or change
the name of the input.
Closes#3331
Extend ng-options with a new clause, "track by [trackByExpression]", which can be used when
working with objects. The `trackByExpression` should uniquely identify select options objects.
This solves the problem of previously having to match ng-options objects by identity.
You can now write: `ng-options="obj as obj.name for obj in objects track by obj.id"`
The "track by" expression will be used when checking for equality of objects.
Examples:
<select
ng-model="user.favMovieStub"
ng-options="movie as movie.name for movie in movies track by movie.id">
</select>
scope: {
user: { name: 'Test user', favMovieStub: { id: 1, name: 'Starwars' } }
movies: [{ id: 1, name: 'Starwars', rating: 5, ... }, { id: 13, ... }]
}
The select input will match user favMovieStub to the first movie in the movies array, and show
"Star Wars" as the selected item.
Fix a check inside render for select elements with ngOptions, which
compares the selected property of an element with it's desired state.
Ensure the placeholder, if available, is explicitly selected if the model
value can not be found in the option list.
Without these fixes it's up to the browser implementation to decide which
option to choose. In most browsers, this has the effect of displaying the
first item in the list. In IE9 however, this causes the select to display
nothing.
Closes#2150, #1826
Bug caused by the use of the `||` operator to replace all non-truthy
values with an empty string. Changed to replace only `undefined` values.
Closes#1401
previously we expected to find option elements only within select element and if
that was not the case we throw an error. This made it impossible to include datalist
element with nested option elements in the template.
Closes#1165
Previously only when ngOptions was used, we correctly handled situations
when model was set to an unknown value. With this change, we'll add/remove
extra unknown option or reuse an existing empty option (option with value
set to "") when model is undefined.
