To do this, we'll let the user select between "download" and "upload" charts with an HTML select/option menu. + +Creating the Angularized select/option menu +------------------------------------------- + +Add the following just above our Google Chart placeholder in :code:`sdk/ecomp-sdk/epsdk-app-os/src/main/webapp/app/fusion/scripts/myapp/myfirstpage/template.html`: + +.. code-block:: html + + <select ng-model="state.direction" ng-change="getChartData(state.direction)" ng-options="direction for direction in ['download', 'upload']"></select> + +The :code:`state.direction` value for the :code:`ng-model` attribute tells AngularJS that the :code:`state.direction` should hold the current value of the selected option. We saw it earlier in our controller: + +.. code-block:: javascript + + $scope.state = { + . + . + // Holds the selected direction from the select/options control + direction: "download" + . + . + }; + +How this works is simple. Using the options defined in :code:`ng-options`, AngularJS creates a select/option button. When the user selects an option, the value is stored in :code:`ng-model`. If the option changes, AngularJS calls our :code:`getChartData` function with the selected option as an argument. + +Compile, install, and try it out. |
