根据多选下拉列表中的选择/取消选择项更新数据库

Question

I have a multi select dropdown list implemented with angular material design and it's working, it loads all the possible options (Categories) and it checks the items selected already.

I want to update database based on select/unselect in this dropdown list. How can I do so?

<md-select ng-model="SelectedItems" multiple>
    <md-option ng-repeat="item in Categories">{{item}}</md-option>
</md-select> 

Answer 1

check this ng-change directive

It will get you the value in controller as soon as you check/uncheck (function) then call the query function to update the database. Hope it helps.

Answer 2

just take this an example and write your update code with in $scope.onChange function

html

 <div ng-controller="MyCtrl" layout layout-align="center center">
    <md-select ng-model="myModel" placeholder="Pick" ng-change="onChange(myModel)" >
        <md-option value="0">Zero</md-option>
        <md-option value="1">One</md-option>
    </md-select>
</div>

js

angular.module('MyApp', ['ngMaterial'])
.controller('MyCtrl', function ($scope) {
    $scope.onChange = function(k) {
alert(k);
        //your code here for storing in db
    };


})
