In this video we’ll add a search input and new customer button to our List Customers Page. We’ll also use AngularJS Filters to connect our search input to our list of customers, to let us filter through our list of customers.
We look at:
– Continuing to set up the List Customers Page
– Determining the grid layout for mobile vs. larger devices
– Using col-xs and col-sm to change grid sizes based on device size
– Finding and using Bootstrap classes for input-groups for our search bar
– Adjusting the size of input-groups and buttons to align to the wireframe
– Connecting the search input to the list of customers
– Finding Angular Filter documentation on the AngularJS website
– Using Angular Filter syntax to add filtering functionality to our app
– Adding place-holder text to our Search input
In this tutorial video we’ll get fancy with Autocomplete! We’ll look at some sweet little tricks that you can use when you’re working with small datasets. Both Local and Remote/Server side sets of data can be handled in a similar once the data is available to AngularJS.
In this tutorial video we’ll look at using AngularJS resource services to communicate between AngularJS and your ExpressJS controllers.
Behaviour driven tests are also a great way to make sure that the requirements aren’t forgotten about as the project progresses. There’s no better way to show progress than when you can easily show how many tests are passing at any point in time.
GitHub: has millions of public and private repositories, with thousands more being added everyday. GitHub repositories or ‘repos’, are used as a collaborative means of source control. Github allows a granular level of change control and code management. This means that code changes can be clearly identified, issues can be addressed, and new features can be requested, all in one place.
We’ll look at two Angular directives, looping through an array using ng-repeat, adding some dynamic styles using ng-class and add them to our MEAN Stack
We look at:
– Two Angular Directives
– Looping through an array using ng-repeat
– adding some dynamic styles using ng-class
In this video we’ll continue setting up our Update Customer Modal instance using Angular UI. We’ll focus on the buttons within the Modal to trigger the update function, save the data and close the Modal window, or cancel out of the Modal window.
We look at:
– A recap of our Angular UI Customer Update Modal
– Locating the ‘ok’ and ‘cancel’ functions from the Angular UI documentation
– Adding the ‘ok’ and ‘cancel’ functions to the Update Modal instance
– Aligning our button details to our wireframes
– Adding the update function to the Customers Update Controller
– Adding a reference to the update function from the Update Modal
– Testing out our Model by updating customer details
NodeBots Day is just a couple of weeks away, so I want to share what I’ve been doing with Node and Arduino in recent times. This post is aimed at very basic, hello world type examples of using NodeJS as a server to run JavaScript code on Arduino UNO hardware.
In this video we’ll style our AngularJS Create Customer Modal, and create our first customer using our new Modal. We’ll then add functionality to delete Customers from our list.
We look at:
– A quick recap of opening up our new Create Customer Modal
– Changing the ng-class reference for the Referred field (from danger to pink)
– Making the Surname field a required field
– Creating a reference from our model fields back to our controller
– Creating a new customer using our Create Customer Modal
– Checking our console logs to tell if our record was saved
– Refreshing the page to show our new customer record
– The functions that are still missing from our Controllers
– Adding ‘Delete’ functionality to our controller
– Adding a new button with ng-click to call the delete functionality
– Deleting a customer record from our list of customers
I’m really interested to see just how far the Angular Web/Mobile development experience has grown over the last few years. So, let’s get into the nitty gritty of starting an Android app using Angular.
We go behind the scenes with early designs for a Material Design Web App that I’m working on, and some insight into the types of things that designers need to consider for UX that is created for a specific audience.
In this video we’ll take the changes that we’ve made to the Angular Customers controller, and start mapping the Angular Model to the Create Customer Page. We also begin to style our Create Customer Page based on our Wireframes.
We look at:
– The Yo generated Create Customer Page, and how we find it using the Angular Routes
– Why the page wouldn’t work because we removed the ‘name’ field from our Schema
– Identify the required bootstrap grid based on our wireframes
– Begin to style the Create Customer Page based on our wireframes
– Some tips and tricks on styling Bootstrap for mobile devices
– We map the Angular customer model to our inputs
