AngularJS Selecting Dynamic DOM elements created inside ng-repeat

[Raf Kewl]

Hi,

I am trying to figure out the best way to select an element using jquery when it is created as a new DOM element inside ng-repeat while the Array for ng-repeat changes.

Here is a simple Fiddle problem to show the exact problem.

Please let me know the best way.

Thanks

Raf,

Could you elaborate a bit on your use-case?
With AngularJS we very seldom need to access a DOM element in a
controller (in fact it is no-go most of the time), as there are often
easier / nicer ways of accomplishing things just with model
manipulation.

I can see that you are adding inputs and then trying to do something
with a class attribute but I'm not clear what...

Cheers,
Pawel

Hi Pawel,

Yes my actual Use Case is a bit different than what I have done in the jsFiddle. The real scenario is that,

I have a custom Directive which binds the Bootstrapper Datepicker Plugin to the input field inside Ng-Repeat.

So every time a new datepicker is added, I want to set an attribute which states its maximum selectable date. But this date value is calculated inside the controller as it has to do with some other input values in a form. For example, my form have Contract Start and Contract End Date, and inside the contract form, I am adding different seasonal dates within the contract start and end date. Therefore, the first season will have the attribute set to allow selecting date range of the Contract. When the second season is added, I have to make the date range of the second datepicker starting from the ending date selected in the first season.

That is a real scenario.

Any ideas will be very helpful.

Thanks.

http://jsfiddle.net/roychoo/ADukg/1042/ -> this is for the select last dom.

for the datepicker, this is an example fiddle, please only look at "datepicker" directive. the rest is from somebody's fiddle.

What you can do is that you can store the last date selected in your scope model, then you will have a reference to the last date being selected.

Maybe you could create a jsfiddle to elaborate more.
