I am new to angularjs and trying create an single page application. I have a home controller with very simple code. Something along the lines of this tutorial
Angular JS controller is initialized with code like:
var phonecatApp = angular.module('phonecatApp', []);
phonecatApp.controller('PhoneListCtrl', function ($scope) {
$scope.phones = [
{'name': 'Nexus S',
'_id': 1,
'snippet': 'Fast just got faster with Nexus S.'},
{'name': 'Motorola XOOM™ with Wi-Fi',
'_id': 2,
'snippet': 'The Next, Next Generation tablet.'},
{'name': 'MOTOROLA XOOM™',
'_id': 3,
'snippet': 'The Next, Next Generation tablet.'}
];
});
but in production data might not be so neatly packed. Now my problem is:
Can I create a download link to a JSON representation of my objects?
<li ng-repeat="phone in phones">
<a
href="data:text/json;charset=utf-8,{{encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify(phone))}}"
download="{{phone._id}}.json">
JSON
</a>
</li>
I basically want to access the current object phone
with the formatting function encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify(phone))
.
Is there a way to do this neatly?
Thanks to the suggestions of rnrneverdiesI added the following to the config
phonecatApp.config(['$compileProvider', function ($compileProvider) {
$compileProvider.aHrefSanitizationWhitelist(/^\s*(https?|ftp|mailto|tel|file|data|blob):/);
}]);
and these functions to the $scope in the controller
$scope.stripClone = function(obj) {
if (null == obj || "object" != typeof obj) return obj;
var copy = obj.constructor();
for (var attr in obj) {
if (obj.hasOwnProperty(attr) && attr != '$$hashKey') {
var obj_attr = obj[attr];
if (typeof obj_attr == "object"){
copy[attr] = this.stripClone(obj_attr);
} else if (typeof obj_attr == "array"){
copy[attr] =[];
for(var i =0; i<obj_attr.length; i++){
copy[attr].push(this.stripClone(obj_attr));
}
}else{
copy[attr] = obj_attr;
}
}
}
return copy;
};
$scope.myEncodeJson = function(obj){
return JSON.stringify(this.stripClone(obj));
};
I can now call these functions in the template to do the json magic I wanted:
<a ng-href="data:text/json;charset=utf-8,{{myEncodeJson(phone)}}
Thanks for your help
