How to pass parameters to a modal?

Question

I want to pass the userName from a list of userNames a logged in user clicks on to twitter bootstrap modal. I am using grails with angularjs, where data is rendered via angularjs.

Configuration

My grails view page encouragement.gsp is

<div ng-controller="EncouragementController">
    <g:render template="encourage/encouragement_modal" />
    <tr ng-cloak
                  ng-repeat="user in result.users">
                   <td>{{user.userName}}</rd>
                   <td>
                      <a class="btn btn-primary span11" href="#encouragementModal" data-toggle="modal">
                            Encourage
                       </a>
                  </td>
                </tr>

My encourage/_encouragement_modal.gsp is

<div id="encouragementModal" class="modal hide fade">
  <div class="modal-header">
    <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal"
      aria-hidden="true">&times;</button>
    <h3>Confirm encouragement?</h3>
  </div>
  <div class="modal-body">
      Do you really want to encourage <b>{{aModel.userName}}</b>?
  </div>
  <div class="modal-footer">
    <button class="btn btn-info"
      ng-click="encourage('${createLink(uri: '/encourage/')}',{{aModel.userName}})">
      Confirm
    </button>
    <button class="btn" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">Never Mind</button>
  </div>
</div>

So, how can I pass userName to encouragementModal?

Answer 1

To pass the parameter you need to use resolve and inject the items in controller

$scope.Edit = function (Id) {
   var modalInstance = $modal.open({
      templateUrl: '/app/views/admin/addeditphone.html',
      controller: 'EditCtrl',
      resolve: {
         editId: function () {
           return Id;
         }
       }
    });
}

Now if you will use like this:

app.controller('EditCtrl', ['$scope', '$location'
       , function ($scope, $location, editId)

in this case editId will be undefined. You need to inject it, like this:

app.controller('EditCtrl', ['$scope', '$location', 'editId'
     , function ($scope, $location, editId)

Now it will work smooth, I face the same problem many time, once injected, everything start working!
