angular-checklist-matticusau v1.5.1

angular-checklist-matticusau

Forked copy of angular-checklist to provide angular version updates. Intent is to push content back to upstream but required for personal projects.

A simple Angular directive to bind multiple input[type="checkbox"] controls to a single output array.

<input type="checkbox" [checklist]="myArray" checklistValue="myVal1" />

@Component({
  selector: 'demo',
  template: `
    <label>
      <input type="checkbox"
             [(checklist)]="list"
             [checklistValue]="1" />
      One
    </label>

    <label>
      <input type="checkbox"
             [(checklist)]="list"
             [checklistValue]="2" />
      Two
    </label>
  `,
})
export class DemoComponent {
  list = [2];  // will auto-check pre-populated values
}

Installation

Install via NPM:

npm install --save angular-checklist

Or via Yarn:

yarn add angular-checklist

Add to module imports

Import the dependency, then add to your NgModule's imports array.

import { ChecklistModule } from 'angular-checklist';

@NgModule({
  imports: [
    /* others */
    ChecklistModule,
  ],
})
export class AppModule { }

Use it in your template

Designed to effortlessly work with both one- and two-way binding syntaxes means angular-checklist is immutable friendly.

Two-way binding

For standard forms, simply use Angular's two-way binding ("box of bananas") syntax. This will update your list after every change.

<input type="checkbox"
       [(checklist)]="list"
       checklistValue="1" />

One-way binding

For finer control, use one-way binding syntax. $event will contain an updated, shallow copy of list.

<input type="checkbox"
       [checklist]="list"
       (checklistChange)="store.updateList($event)"
       checklistValue="1" />

Looping and Object binding

angular-checklist works great with *ngFor. Remember to use brackets [] to bind non-string checklistValues.

<label *ngFor="let opt of options">
  <input type="checkbox"
         [(checklist)]="list"
         [checklistValue]="opt.value" />
  {{opt.text}}
</label>

Limited selected items

You can limit the number of possibly selectable items by using the maxSelectedItems input. Default is -1, which mean no limit.

Note: this simply prevents further changes, it does not unselect old value(s).

<label *ngFor="let opt of options">
  <input type="checkbox"
         [(checklist)]="list"
         [checklistValue]="opt.value"
         [maxSelectedItems]="2" />
  {{opt.text}}
</label>
