Magic

Custom validators

var regex = /[0-9]{2}[0-9]{2}[0-9]{2}/;

function validate(inputString) {
    var validity = regex.test(inputString) && inputString.length === 6;
    ngModel.$setValidity('sortcode', validity);
    return inputString;
}

function stripDashes(inputString) {
    return inputString.replace(/-/g, '');
}

ngModel.$parsers.push(stripDashes);
ngModel.$parsers.push(validate);
                            

Something a little harder

One Value, Two inputs

ngModel.$render = function renderYearsMonths() {
    if (angular.isNumber(ngModel.$modelValue)) {
        $months.val(ngModel.$modelValue % 12);
        $years.val(Math.floor(ngModel.$modelValue / 12));
    } else {
        $inputs.val('');
    }
};

function parseInputs() {
    //if no inputs then bail
    if (years === '' && months === '') {
        ngModel.$setViewValue(undefined);
        return undefined;
    }
    //otherwise we want to convert the empty string to a 0 before continuing
    years = years === '' ? '0' : years; months = months === '' ? '0' : months;
    years  = parseInt(years, 10); months = parseInt(months, 10);

    if (isNaN(years) && isNaN(months)) {
        ngModel.$setViewValue(undefined);
    } else {
        ngModel.$setViewValue((years * 12) + months);
    }
}

Lessons Learnt

• Dont - Component-all-the-things
• relative URL's are not your friend - when(:url:) does not obey <base>
• No lazy load of Modules

Grunt vs Gulp.

Fight!

In the pipeline

• Chat Module, multi user
• Leveragge elastic search
• Stock manager
• Advanced user management, mascarading
