Angular JS - Changing state depending on item clicked

I want to display content beneath a table, from a JSON file, relative to to item the user clicked on in the table
Example:
JSON file
{
"patentInfo": [
{
"name": "item1",
"cost": "$33",
"date": "13/06",
},
{
"name": "item2",
"cost": "$29",
"date": "02/02",
}
]
}
View - table
click on item 1 > DISPLAY price:$33, date:13/06
click on item 2 > DISPLAY price:$29, date:02/02
I asked this question last week but didn't get a response as I don't think I made it too clear. I'm using ui-view to display content, and it is the state patents.list.item URL that needs to be relative, dependent on what the user clicked on. Any ideas on how to achieve this?

What you have to do first is to add a dynamic URL parameter to the route which is supposed to display information about a selected patent and give it another controller.
.state("patents.list.item", {
url: "/patent-item/:name",
templateUrl: "templates/patents/list/patent-item.htm",
controller: "patentDetailsCtrl"
})
Then when you are navigating to that patent, you have to include the name (assuming that is a unique identifier) in the link.
<td><a ui-sref="patents.list.item({ name: x.name })">{{x.applicationNumber}}</a></td>
After that in your patentDetailsCtrl, you can fetch information about the patent from the JSON file and display it.
Alternative Solutions
Another solution would be handle it in your patentCtrl without an additional (patents.list.item) route. But I would not recommend that approach.
You could also use components if you are using AngularJS v1.5+. To learn more about components, see the official documentation.

nested ng-repeat with json and rest api call back

I am trying to make a UI using list of product in a json(products.json) file on local and their availability in number from wp rest api call back in html(ionic) I have this:
Controller:
.controller('ShopCtrl', function($scope, $ionicActionSheet, BackendService, CartService, $http, $sce ) {
$scope.siteCategories = [];
$scope.cart = CartService.loadCart();
$scope.doRefresh = function(){
BackendService.getProducts()
.success(function(newItems) {
$scope.products = newItems;
console.log($scope.products);
})
.finally(function() {
// Stop the ion-refresher from spinning (not needed in this view)
$scope.$broadcast('scroll.refreshComplete');
});
};
$http.get("http://example.com/wp-json/wp/v2/categories/").then(
function(returnedData){
$scope.siteCategories = returnedData.data;
console.log($scope.siteCategories);
}, function(err){
console.log(err);
});
Template view:
<div ng-repeat = "product in products">
<div class="item item-image" style="position:relative;">
<img ng-src="{{product.image}}">
<div ng-repeat = "siteCategory in siteCategories">-->
<button class="button button-positive product-price" ng-click="addProduct(product)">
<p class="white-color product-price-price">post <b>{{siteCategory[$index].count}}</b></p>
</button>
</div>
</div>
<div class="item ui-gradient-deepblue">
<h2 class="title white-color sans-pro-light">{{product.title}} </h2>
</div>
<div class="item item-body">
{{product.description}}
</div>
</div>
so how can I achieve that? I tried to use nested ng-repeat but it didn't work out.

could not able to open Iframe in view

i have a scenario where i need to open candidate resume in an iframe when click on candidate resume link
Here is my html:
<div ng-class="{'col-xs-6': myVar=='something'}">
<div class="panel panel-default panel-height" ng-repeat="candidateInfo in aCandidateDetails track by $index">
<div class="panel-heading header-background">
<div stop-watch time="xyz" name="candidateInfo.name" time-of-interview="candidateInfo.doi" class="stop-watch"></div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-2"><a style="cursor:pointer" class="pull-right">{{candidateInfo.name}}</a></div>
<div class="col-xs-offset-9">{{candidateInfo.name}} resume</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="{{toggle}}" class="collapse" ng-class="{'col-xs-6': myVar=='something'}">
<iframe name="{{toggle}}"></iframe>
And a controller code where i have simple ajax call and logic for toggle
angular.module('hrPortalApp')
.controller('candidateInterviewCtrl', function($scope, $state, iterateArray, getCandidateInterviewListService) {
getCandidateInterviewListService.fnGetCandidateDetails("xyz").then(function(response) {
$scope.aCandidateDetails = response;
console.log(response);
$scope.toggle = "accor"
});
$scope.fnVar = function(name) {
$scope.checkVar = !$scope.checkVar;
if ($scope.checkVar) {
$scope.myVar = "something";
} else {
$scope.myVar = false;
}
}
});
I have no idea where i am going wrong but this iframe is not getting triggered
Any help would be appreciated.

Working with Angular Material

This is a small project just for learning purposes.
The objective is that when I click in the + button in front of the name of the game, the AngularJS material popup show up. Its working, but I want it to work for the different games. With a different HTML template correspondent to the game I click.

Could some one help me ? Thanks

Sounds like you need to parameterize the controller and template you pass to $mdDialog.
For example:
$scope.showAdvanced = function(ev, popupIdentifier) {
$mdDialog.show({
controller: popupIdentifier + 'Controller',
templateUrl: 'pages/' + popupIdentifier + '.tmpl.html',
targetEvent: ev,
clickOutsideToClose:true
})
};
and then simply call the function with whatever popup content you need:
$scope.showAdvanced($event, 'Game1');

How do I refresh my ng-repeat?

I have a controller (called "catalogueController") that manages my search box and my search page. I have the controller initially set the page to automatically call the search function defined in "catalogueController" when the app loads to pre-load my array of items (called Inventory) to be repeated via ng-repeat in the page.
The process runs like this:
1. I submit the search form.
2. "catalogueController" will send the search term to my factory (called "Search").
3. "Search" will have a function which will make a server call to query my database for that particular search.
4. The database will send the results of the search to the "Search" factory.
5. The "Search" factory will send the results to the "catalogueController" controller.
6. "catalogueController" will update the $scope.Inventory to be equal to the new result that I was received.
My problem is that ng-repeat does not refresh itself to display my new and updated $scope.Inventory array. $scope.Inventory definitely is updated (I have made sure of this through various console logs).
I have also tried to use $scope.$apply(). It did not work for me.
Thank you in advance for your help!
Here is my code:
HTML Template
<form role="search" class="navbar-form navbar-left" ng-controller="catalogueController" ng-submit="search(search_term)">
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" placeholder="Search" class="form-control" ng-model="search_term">
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Search</button>
</form>
<main ng-view></main>
catalogue.html partial
<div id="main" class="margin-top-50 clearfix container">
<div ng-repeat="items in inventory" class="row-fluid">
<div class="col-sm-6 col-md-3">
<div class="thumbnail"><img src="image.jpg" alt="..." class="col-md-12">
<div class="caption">
<h3>{{ items.itemName }}</h3>
<p>{{ items.description }}</p>
<p>Buy <a href="#" role="button" class="btn btn-default">More Info</a></p>

"app.js" Angular App
var myApp = angular.module('qcbApp', ['ngRoute', 'ngCookies', 'appControllers']);
myApp.config(['$routeProvider', function($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider.
when('/login', {

controller: 'registrationController'

}]);
"catalogueController" Controller
myApp.controller('catalogueController', ['$scope', 'Search', function($scope, Search) {
var time = 0;
var searchCatalogue = function(search) {
$scope.inventory = null;
console.log("Controller -- "+search);
Search.searchCatalogue(search)
.then(function(results) {
console.log(results);
$scope.inventory = results;
});
};
if(time == 0)
{
searchCatalogue('');
time++;
}
$scope.search = function(term) {
searchCatalogue(term);
}
}]);
"Search" Factory
myApp.factory('Search', ['$http', '$q', function($http, $q) {
function searchCatalogue(term) {
var deferred = $q.defer();
console.log("Factory -- "+term);
$http.post('/catalogue_data', {term: term}, {headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json'}})
.success(function(result) {
console.log(result[0].SKU);
deferred.resolve(result);
console.log("Factory results -- "+result);
});
return deferred.promise;
}
return {
searchCatalogue: searchCatalogue
}; //return
}]);

I think the problem is the ng-repeat can not access the inventory in scope. You have to create a div which contains both the form and the ng-repeat.
The html should be:
<div ng-controller="catalogueController">
<!-- Move the controller from the form to parent div -->
<form role="search" class="navbar-form navbar-left" ng-submit="search(search_term)">
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" placeholder="Search" class="form-control" ng-model="search_term">
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Search</button>
</form>
<div id="main" class="margin-top-50 clearfix container">
<div ng-repeat="items in inventory" class="row-fluid">
<div class="col-sm-6 col-md-3">
<div class="thumbnail"><img src="image.jpg" alt="..." class="col-md-12">
<div class="caption">
<h3>{{ items.itemName }}</h3>
<p>{{ items.description }}</p>
<p>Buy <a href="#" role="button" class="btn btn-default">More Info</a></p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

I've seen the situation a few times where when you are updating a property directly on the $scope object there are interesting problems around databinding to that value (such as inventory). However if you databind to an object property of an object then the databinding works as expected. So for example use a property on $scope. I believe this is a copy by value vs copy by reference issue.
Update all your inventory references as follows
$scope.data.inventory = result;
Also don't forget to update your inventory reference in the html template:
<div ng-repeat="items in data.inventory" class="row-fluid">
Update: I made this plunk to figure it out - http://plnkr.co/edit/0ZLagR?p=preview
I think the primary problem is you have the controller specified twice. I removed it from the form and it started working.
