Angularjs autocomplete from $http

Question

I\'m trying to write an autocomplete directive that fetches data from the server using an $http request (without using any external plugins or scripts). Cur

Answer 1

the easiest way to do that in angular or angularjs without external modules or directives is using list and datalist HTML5. You just get a json and use ng-repeat for feeding the options in datalist. The json you can fetch it from ajax.

in this example:

• ctrl.query is the query that you enter when you type.
• ctrl.msg is the message that is showing in the placeholder
• ctrl.dataList is the json fetched

then you can add filters and orderby in the ng-reapet

!! list and datalist id must have the same name !!
