Get value input form

Question

I would like to retrieve the password value type for the display in the console.log . I use a html form with ng-model="passwd" to retrieve the value. And I then uses a controller with $scope.passwd=null; to retrieve the input field. For now, $scope.passwd remains null in google chrome => Console

'use strict';

angular.module('djoro.controllers')

.controller('WifiSmartConfigCtrl', function($scope, $window, $ionicPlatform){

  $scope.passwd = null;

  $scope.startSmartconfig = function(passwd){       

        var onSuccess = function(success){

          $scope.passwd = passwd;
        };

        var onFail = function(){};

        $ionicPlatform.ready(function(){

        $window.cordova.plugins.Smartconfig.startSmartconfig(onSuccess, onFail, $scope.passwd);
            console.log('Password  = ' + $scope.passwd);
        });

  };

});

 <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.23/angular.min.js"></script> <form name="wifi_form" class="simple-form"> <div class="list input-fields"> <label class="item item-input" show-hide-container> <span class="input-label">Password : </span> <input type="password" name="password" ng-model="passwd" id="passwd" show-hide-input> </label> </div> </form> <div class="startWifi"> <button class="button button-full button-balanced" ng-click="startSmartconfig()">Start</button> </div> 

Someone an idea to edit the entered value ? Thank you

Answer 1

Replace $scope.passwd = null; to $scope.passwd = '';

You are using ng-click="startSmartconfig()" and passing nothing but in controller, you have used $scope.startSmartconfig = function(passwd){ so this code will not work.

Set controller function to $scope.startSmartconfig = function(){ and another thing is angularjs is two way binding means when you add value in input text with ng-model="passwd", it also bind the textbox value to $scope.passwd.

Answer 2

I am not aware of $window.cordova thing but what I observed is you didn't pass passwd in ng-click="startSmartconfig()" in html and you are assigning the passwd to $scope.passwd which will be undefined.

And no need to pass passwd in function. You can directly get updated value in $scope.passwd
