# angular-autodisable [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/kirstein/angular-autodisable.png)](https://travis-ci.org/kirstein/angular-autodisable)

An extension to angular `ng-click` directive that automatically sets the element to disabled if the handler would return a promise.

### Requirements
---

1. angular.js version >1.2+
2. following es5 functions:
1. [`bind`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Function/bind)
2. [`map`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/map)
3. [`forEach`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/forEach)
4. [`indexOf`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/indexOf)

### Usage
---

Include `ngAutodisable` as dependency

```
angular.module('MyApp', [ 'ngAutodisable', ... ]);
```

If that's done then just follow those simple steps:

1. just attach `ng-autodisable` directive to the element which happens to have `ng-click` directive OR a form that has the `ng-submit` directive.
2. ???
3. profit!

#### On an element

```
Do something

Do something
```

#### On a form

```

...
Submit

```
The button with type `submit` within the form will be disabled.

#### Loading class

You can *optionally* add a list of classes which will be added to the element while this is disabled. This is useful to add a spinner or something similar.

```

Do something



...
Submit

```
The button with type `submit` within the form will get the class.

### Demo
---

A quick demo is available at [jsfiddle](http://jsfiddle.net/kirstein/wXnks/embedded/result/)

### How it works
---

When `ngClick` and `ngAutodisable` are on the same element then `ngAutodisable` overwrites the handler for `click` event. The default `ngClick` action is recreated _(and passes all the angular specs)_.

If the click handlers result happens to be a `promise` _(`$http` or `$q`)_ then the element attribute `disabled` will be set as true. If the promise fulfills then the element `disabled` attribute will be removed.

This also works with multiple click handlers, given that click handlers are separated by `;` as such:

```
Do something
```

If there are multiple click handlers then the element disabled style will be removed after the last promise resolves.

### Note
---

Throws an exception `ngAutodisable requires ngClick attribute in order to work` if `ngAutodisable` is on an element without `ngClick`.

### Devel
---

```
npm install
bower install
grunt test
grunt build
```
