Angular.js Dynamic Form input types

Question

I\'m trying to make an Angular.js app that creates dynamic form inputs from a JSON object.

So firstly, I have a JSON object (called fields):

[
  {\"f         


        

Answer 1

Topic if changing type property if element is hot topic.

Actually, as AngularJS behaviour depends on was jQuery added (before or after angular.js).

Here you can read some discussion about possibility to change type: change type of input field with jQuery

Also there is pull request to AngularUI for adding new directive with support of dynamic type change: https://github.com/angular-ui/angular-ui/pull/371

If you find suggested solution is not good enough (though as type is not changed after you render form) you can go with ng-switch way - just show corrent input for user.
