I am new to angularjs, and I have been reading a ton of documentation and reading through various articles and tutorials as well as videos to help me figure this stuff out.
I am trying to get two directives to interchange information between themselves. a really simplified version of what i am trying to do is at odetocode (http://odetocode.com/blogs/scott/archive/2013/09/11/moving-data-in-an-angularjs-directive.aspx) where k scott allen has wrapped his directives with a div that has the ng-controller attribute it works beautifully.
I have a slightly more complex test I am working on, and I am trying to get it to work similarly to the code I have mentioned.
my two directives talk to each other when I list the ng-controller attribute in the actual template for each directive. it works, but I don't think it is correct. the actual controller code is run twice, once for each directive.
when I move the controller into the div that wraps the two directives, the two directives stop interacting (the change event in the location-selector template doesn't change the park in the controller). I am pretty sure it has something to do with the scope. if anyone can point me in the right direction, or where I should look for information, that would be much appreciated.
here is my fiddle showing my code http://jsfiddle.net/jgbL9/25/
<div ng-app="myApp">
<location-selector ></location-selector ><br/>
<portal-map ></portal-map >
</div>
var App = angular.module('myApp', ['ngResource']);
App.directive('locationSelector',['parkList', function(parkList) {
return {
restrict: 'E',
scope: {
parkId : '=',
parkName : '='
},
template: '<select ng-controller="portalMapCtrl"'+
' ng-model="listParks" ng-change="changePark()" '+
' park-id="parkId" park-name="parkName" ' +
' ng-options="park as park.attributes.NAME for park in Parks" >'+
'</select>',
link: function (scope,element,attrs){
parkList.getListFromGIS().success(function(data) {
scope.Parks = data.features;
});
}
};
}]);
App.directive('portalMap', function(){
return {
restrict: 'E',
scope:{
parkId: "=",
parkName: "="
},
template: '<style type="text/css" media="screen">'+
'#mapCanvas {height: 500px; width:75%; border:thin black solid; }'+
'</style>'+
'<div id="mapCanvas" park-id="parkId" park-name="parkName" ng-controller="portalMapCtrl" ></div>'
}
});
App.controller('portalMapCtrl',['$scope','parkList', function( $scope, parkList ){
var map = {};
var STREETMAPSERVICE = "https://gis.odot.state.or.us/ArcGIS/rest/services/BASEMAPS/Basemap_Streets/MapServer";

var mapService = {};
if(srvcType == 'Tiled'){
mapService = new Tiled(srvc);
}else{
var imageParameters = new Parameters();
imageParameters.layerIds = lyrId;
imageParameters.transparent = true;
mapService = new Dynamic(srvc,{"imageParameters":imageParameters});
}
map.addLayer(mapService);
});
}
function createMap(){
require(["esri/map"],function(Map){
console.log('create map');
map = new Map("mapCanvas");
addService(STREETMAPSERVICE,'Tiled');
addService(FOTOSSERVICE,'Tiled');
addService(UTILSSERVICE,'Dynamic',ALL_LAYERS);
});
}
createMap();
}]);
App.factory('parkList',['$http', function($http) {
return {
getListFromGIS: function() {
var myUrl = 'http://maps.prd.state.or.us/arcgis/rest/services/ESRI_TEST/MapServer/0/query?where=OBJECTID+%3E+0&geometryType=esriGeometryEnvelope&spatialRel=esriSpatialRelIntersects&outFields=PARK_HUB_ID%2CNAME&returnGeometry=false&&returnIdsOnly=false&returnCountOnly=false&orderByFields=NAME&returnZ=false&returnM=false&returnDistinctValues=true&f=pjson&callback=JSON_CALLBACK';
return $http ({ url: myUrl, method: 'JSONP'});
},
getParkFromGIS: function (id){
var myUrl = "http://maps.prd.state.or.us/arcgis/rest/services/ESRI_TEST/MapServer/0/query?where=PARK_HUB_ID%3d"+id+"&f=pjson&callback=JSON_CALLBACK";
return $http ({ url: myUrl, method: 'JSONP'});
},
JSON_CALLBACK: function(data) {}
};
}]);
(this is the code working with the ng-controller listed in the template of each directive).
any other comments or suggestions you would like to offer about my code structure or code choices will be appreciated also, as I mentioned, I am learning, and the more I can learn the more fun I will have coding.
