$ionicPopover

Related: ionicPopover controller.

The Popover is a view that floats above an app’s content. Popovers provide an easy way to present or gather information from the user and are commonly used in the following situations:

  • Show more info about the current view
  • Select a commonly used tool or configuration
  • Present a list of actions to perform inside one of your views

Put the content of the popover inside of an <ion-popover-view> element.

Usage

<p>
  <button ng-click="openPopover($event)">Open Popover</button>
</p>

<script id="my-popover.html" type="text/ng-template">
  <ion-popover-view>
    <ion-header-bar>
      <h1 class="title">My Popover Title</h1>
    </ion-header-bar>
    <ion-content>
      Hello!
    </ion-content>
  </ion-popover-view>
</script>

angular.module('testApp', ['ionic'])
.controller('MyController', function($scope, $ionicPopover) {

  // .fromTemplate() method
  var template = '<ion-popover-view><ion-header-bar> <h1 class="title">My Popover Title</h1> </ion-header-bar> <ion-content> Hello! </ion-content></ion-popover-view>';

  $scope.popover = $ionicPopover.fromTemplate(template, {
    scope: $scope
  });

  // .fromTemplateUrl() method
  $ionicPopover.fromTemplateUrl('my-popover.html', {
    scope: $scope
  }).then(function(popover) {
    $scope.popover = popover;
  });


  $scope.openPopover = function($event) {
    $scope.popover.show($event);
  };
  $scope.closePopover = function() {
    $scope.popover.hide();
  };
  //Cleanup the popover when we're done with it!
  $scope.$on('$destroy', function() {
