How to prevent directive with transclude to create new scopes?
This jsfiddle I cant bind anything due to the new scopes illustrated with red borders.
Html:
<div ng-app="components">
<input ng-model="var">
<block>
123
<input ng-model="var">
</block>
</div>
JavaScript:
angular.module('components', []).directive('block',function(){
return{
scope:false,
replace:true,
restrict:"E",
transclude:true,
template:'<div class="block" ng-transclude></div>',
link:function(scope, el, attrs, ctrl){
}
}
});
CSS:
.ng-scope{
border:1px solid red;
margin:10px;
}
It is actually expected behavior as stated here (ng-transclude create a child scope): https://github.com/angular/angular.js/issues/1056 and discussed here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/angular/45jNmQucSCE/hL8x48-JfZIJ
You can workaround this by setting a member on an object in the scope (obj.var) like in this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/rdarder/pnSNj/10/
Although this is not recommended by the Angular team, another workaround is to explicitly call the $parent scope within the transcluded portion:
<div ng-app="components">
<input ng-model="var">
<block>
123
<input ng-model="$parent.var">
</block>
</div>
