# Native UI Inline-editor Angular (version 4+) component ([demo](demos))
Follow me [](https://twitter.com/carlillo) to be notified about new releases.
ngx-inline-editor is a library of Angular (version 4+) that allows you to create editable elements.
Such technique is also known as *click-to-edit* or *edit-in-place*.
It is based on ideas of [angular-xeditable](https://github.com/vitalets/angular-xeditable) which is developed in AngularJS.

## Dependencies
Basically it does not depend on any libraries except Angular4 itself.
For themes you may need to include Twitter Bootstrap CSS.
### Angular 4+ Version
Angular 4 is now stable. Therefore, if encountering errors using this
lib, ensure your version of Angular is compatible. The current version used to develop this lib is angular4 **^4.0.0**.
## Controls & Features
* [x] text
* [x] textarea
* [x] select
* [ ] checkbox
* [ ] radio
* [ ] date
* [ ] time
* [x] datetime
* [ ] html5 inputs
* [x] pattern
* [x] number
* [x] range
* [ ] typeahead

## Quick start
1. A recommended way to install ***ngx-inline-editor*** is through [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=ngx-inline-editor) package manager using the following command:
`npm i @qontu/ngx-inline-editor --save`
2. Include the basic theme or configure your own styles which are in the following path:
`dist/themes/bootstrap.css`
3. Include [Twitter Bootstrap](http://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com/) and [FontAwesome](http://fontawesome.io/) in your project.
Usage
-----
## Angular (4+) and later
Import `InlineEditorModule` into your app's modules:
``` typescript
import {InlineEditorModule} from '@qontu/ngx-inline-editor';
@NgModule({
imports: [
InlineEditorModule
]
})
```
This makes all the `@qontu/ngx-inline-editor` components available for use in your app components.
## Simple Example
You can find a complete example [here](demos/basic)
```TypeScript
import {Component} from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'my-component',
template: `
<div>
<inline-editor type="text" [(ngModel)]="editableText" (onSave)="saveEditable($event)" name="editableText1" size="8"></inline-editor>
</div>
<div>
<inline-editor type="password" [(ngModel)]="editablePassword" (onSave)="saveEditable($event)"></inline-editor>
</div>
<div>
<inline-editor type="textarea" [(ngModel)]="editableTextArea" (onSave)="saveEditable($event)"> </inline-editor>
</div>
<div>
<inline-editor type="select" [(ngModel)]="editableSelect" (onSave)="saveEditable($event)" [options]="editableSelectOptions"
value="valor"></inline-editor>
</div>`
})
export class MyComponent {
title = 'My component!';
editableText = 'myText';
editablePassword = 'myPassword';
editableTextArea = 'Text in text area';
editableSelect = 2;
editableSelectOptions =[
{value: 1, text: 'status1'},
{value: 2, text: 'status2'},
{value: 3, text: 'status3'},
{value: 4, text: 'status4'}
];
saveEditable(value) {
//call to http service
console.log('http.service: ' + value);
}
```
## API

##### Select
##### Basic example
```HTML
<inline-editor
type="select"
[(ngModel)]="editableSelect"
(onSave)="saveEditable($event)"
name="editableSelect"
disabled="false"
[options]="editableSelectOptions"></inline-editor>
```
* **`type`** [`string`] Specifies the type `<input>` element to display.
* **`onSave`** [`event handler`] The expression specified will be invoked whenever the form is save via a click on save button.
The `$event` argument will be the value return of the input send.
* **`name`** [`string`] Defines the name of an `<input>` element. Default is `undefined`.
* **`disabled`** [`boolean`] If set to `true`, a disabled input element is unusable and un-clickable. Default is `false`.
* **`options`** [`Array<optionItem> | Object:{ data: Array<optionItem, value:string, text: string }`] Array of items from which to select. Should be an array of objects with `value` and `text` properties.
Is possible to configure key-value parameters using an object that specifies these fields and data.
Typescript code:
```TypeScript
editableSelect = 2;
editableSelectOptions =[
{value: 1, text: 'status1'},
{value: 2, text: 'status2'},
{value: 3, text: 'status3'},
{value: 4, text: 'status4'}
];
saveEditable(value) {
//call to http server
console.log('http.server: ' + value);
}
```
##### Parameter's configuration example
* **`editableSelect`** [`number`] Specifies the default's value of the select.
* **`editableSelectOptions`** [`Array<optionItem> | Object: { data: Array<optionItem, value:string, text: string }`] Specifies the array of items from which to select. Should be an array of objects with `value` and `text` properties.
Is possible to configure key-value parameters using an object that specifies these fields and data.
Typescript code:
```TypeScript
editableSelect = 2;
editableSelectOptionsConfiguration = {
data: [
{ id: 1, field: 'status1' },
{ id: 2, field: 'status2' },
{ id: 3, field: 'status3' },
{ id: 4, field: 'status4' }
],
value: 'id',
text: 'field'
}
saveEditable(value) {
//call to http server
console.log('http.server: ' + value);
}
```
##### Children example
Is possible to configure sublevels/children to generate the select using an array of objects called `children`.
Typescript code:
```TypeScript
editableSelectOptionsTwoLevelsDefault = 1;
editableSelectOptionsTwoLevelsConfiguration = {
data: [
{
id: 1, field: 'status1',
children: [
{ id: 5, field: 'status1.1' },
{ id: 6, field: 'status1.2' }
]
},
{ id: 2, field: 'status2' },
{ id: 3, field: 'status3' },
{
id: 4, field: 'status4',
children: [{ id: 7, field: 'status4.1' }]
}
],
value: 'id',
text: 'field'
}
```

#### Empty components
```HTML
<inline-editor
type="text"
ngModel
empty="My custom message"
(onSave)="saveEditable($event)"
(onError)="handleError"
name="editableText1"
size="8"
min="3"
max="5"></inline-editor>
<inline-editor type="select"
[(ngModel)]="editableSelectDoesntExist"
(onSave)="saveEditable($event)"
[options]="editableSelectOptionsConfiguration"></inline-editor>
```
* **`empty`** [`string`] Specifies the default message to display if there are not ngModel for the component.
If the type is `select` then the default selected element is the first element of the `options` array.
