Download

You can also install the package using Bower.

bower install ngModal

Or add it to your bower.json file:

dependencies: {
  "ngModal": "~1.2.0"
}

The Basics

To use the library, add the JS file and CSS file, and then include the module in your app:

app = angular.module("myApp", ["ngModal"])

The directive itself is called modal-dialog. The only required attribute is show, which should reference a boolean variable that controls whether or not the dialog is shown. Inside, you can put whatever HTML content you'd like.

<modal-dialog show='dialogShown' dialog-title='My Dialog'>
  <p>Dialog content goes in here</p>
</modal-dialog>

Inline Options

There are a few options that be configured inline with attributes.

Option Default Description
dialog-title null Title placed in the header of the modal dialog.
width 50% Width of the dialog. Can be specified in px or %.
height 50% Height of the dialog. Can be specified in px or %.
on-close null Call a function when the dialog is closed. Ex: on-close='foo()'

Example:

<modal-dialog show='dialogShown' dialog-title='My Dialog' height='400px' width='75%'>
  <p>Dialog content goes in here</p>
</modal-dialog>

Configuration Options

You can also pre-configure some options during your app's configuration phase.

app.config(function(ngModalDefaultsProvider) {
  ngModalDefaultsProvider.set('option', 'value');
  // Or with a hash
  ngModalDefaultsProvider.set({option: 'value', option2: 'value2'});
})
Option Default Description
closeButtonHtml 'X' By default, the close button is just an X character. But you can set it to any HTML. For example, if you're using font-awesome, you could set it to <i class='fa fa-times'></i>

Browser Support

So far, it has only been tested in Chrome. There is some CSS that is not compatible with with older browsers, including IE9.

Potential Features Down the Road

  • Ability to integrate easily with UI-Router. This may be possible already, but it needs to be explored.
