Angularjs bootstrap dropdown not working

Question

Am bit new to angularjs and bootstrap.

Am trying to add a simple dropdown. But it is not working.

Tried out the suggestion @ Bootstrap 3 simple dropdown not working . That is also not working.

<li class="dropdown">
<a class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" ui-sref="a">a<span class="caret"></span></a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
  <li><a ui-sref="a">a</a></li>
  <li><a ui-sref="b">b</a></li>
  <li><a ui-sref="c">c</a></li>
  <li><a ui-sref="d">d</a></li>
  <li><a ui-sref="e">e</a></li>
  <li><a ui-sref="f">f</a></li>
  <li><a ui-sref="g">g</a></li>
  <li><a ui-sref="h">h</a></li>
  <li><a ui-sref="i">i</a></li>         
  <li><a ui-sref="j">j</a></li>
  <li><a ui-sref="k">k</a></li>
</ul>
</li>

Answer 1

NOTE: Most answers here are outdated! The main issue is that the dropdown directive is not available as a class anymore, but only as an attribute , and that it has been renamed to uib-dropdown .

I was stuck here for a while, but changing the class into an attribute worked as a charm.

Also, you need to use the 'uib-' prefix for each directive instead of plain names.

<li uib-dropdown>
    <a uib-dropdown-toggle>a<span class="caret"></span></a>
    <ul uib-dropdown-menu>
        <li><a ui-sref="a">a</a></li>
        <li><a ui-sref="b">b</a></li>
        <li><a ui-sref="c">c</a></li>
        <li><a ui-sref="d">d</a></li>
    </ul>
</li>

(And of course, make sure you did not forget to include the ui.bootstrap module in your app.)

var app = angular.module('App', ['ui.router','ui.bootstrap']);

Answer 2

You need to include ui.bootstrap module in your app.

var app = angular.module('App', ['ui.router','ui.bootstrap']);

and also remove ui-sref from the dropdown trigger.

<a class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" >a<span class="caret"></span></a>

data-toggle="dropdown" should be removed. I guess it creates some conflict with ui.bootstrap

<li class="dropdown" uib-dropdown>
            <a aria-expanded="false" aria-haspopup="true" class="dropdown-toggle" uib-dropdown-toggle href="" role="button">
              <span class="glyphicon glyphicon-flag"></span>
              Events
              <span class="caret"></span>
            </a>
            <ul class="uib-dropdown-menu" role="menu">
              <li>
                <a href="">Event 1</a>
              </li>
              <li>
                <a href="">Event 2</a>
              </li>
            </ul>

Hope this helps.

你需要在你的锚标签上添加on-toggle，以避免bootstrap下拉角下拉类之间发生冲突，这个问题在angular-ui上是关闭的（ https://github.com/angular-ui/bootstrap/issues/2156 ）

Answer 5

I found a great resource from here regarding the subject, as I had the same issue. I'll outline what I did below.

1. Download ui bootstrap
2. Move zipped file to target directory for app, and unzip
3. locate the latest edition of the ui bootstrap release, which in my case, is located at "bootstrap-gh-pages/ui-bootstrap-tpls-0.13.0.min.js"
4. Include the minified js file in your main .html file: <script src='stylesheets/bootstrap-gh-pages/ui-bootstrap-tpls-0.13.0.min.js'></script>
5. Go back to Angular directives and scroll down to the dropdown section. Copy their javascript into your primary js file and html samples and customize as usual

That's what did it for me. Hope that helps anyone else with the same issue.

Answer 6

First make sure you included ui.bootstrap module in your app

var app = angular.module('App', ['other inclusions','ui.bootstrap']);

Then if the problem still persists don't use dropdown-toggle and dropdown as directives. Instead use as class. ie class = 'dropdown-toggle' etc.

For Example :

<div class="dropdown dropdown-append-to-body">
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" data-toggle = "dropdown">Dropdown on Body <span class="caret"></span>
    </button>
    <ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">
        <li><a href="#">Action</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Another action</a></li>
    </ul>
</div>

Refer this issue. https://github.com/angular-ui/bootstrap/issues/2156

Answer 7

制定了非常简单的解决方案（试图找到它多年后）只需在按钮上添加“dropdown-toggle”指令即可

<button class="btn btn-primary " dropdown-toggle type="button">Drop Me Down<span class="caret"></span></button>

Answer 8

Well, I noticed that the attribute "dropdown" need to be added to the li element, once that is added, everything will be fine.

<li class="dropdown" dropdown>
   <a href="#" dropdown-toggle role="button" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">... <span class="caret"></span></a>
   <ul class="dropdown-menu">
       ...
   </ul>
</li>

for Angular 2:

1. add npm install ng2-bootstrap --save
