only can bind with strings?

[vance]

I have had no luck trying to bind complex objects.

Does not work:

     <template>
            <input id="inputField" type="text" value="{{boundModel.name}}" on-click="{{setFocus}}">
    </template>

where boundModel is a object with property name.

Works:

     <template>
            <input id="inputField" type="text" value="{{boundModel}}" on-click="{{setFocus}}">
    </template>

where boundModel is a string.

Can you supply a PR with a test case? You can update index.html and test/x-double.html as needed.

Hopefully I can take a look shortly one way or another, but a test case would help considerably. Thanks!

Sure, I have the outter html test and the custom element in a couple gists:

tell you what, i will add to index and then create a new file for the custom element and make a PR. gimme a sec.

I was looking at the ng-polymer-element implimentation, they use PathObserver instead of a watch with attribute turned on. I don't know enough about it yet, but can look into it. Maybe possible to swap the Watch with the PathObserver?

from: https://github.com/GabiAxel/ng-polymer-elements/blob/master/ng-polymer-elements.js

var observer = new PathObserver(el, propertyName);

                                    observer.open(function (value) {
                                        scope.$apply(function () {
                                            if(conf.primitive) {
                                                scope[attr] = value;
                                            } else {
                                                angular.copy(value, scope[attr]);
                                            }
                                        });
                                    });

However, their examples are lacking and I could not get it to work with custom elements, only the paper elements.

I put the files from my testing angular app into some pull requests. I hope this helps clarify the issue!

Is this a duplicate of #1? I thought we had that fixed, but maybe it broke with newer Angular / Polymer. What versions of both are you currently using?

I don't see the PR at: https://github.com/eee-c/angular-bind-polymer/pulls. Are you sure that you made it against the correct repo?

[vance]

Ah, what the heck? I know they were committed, I don't see the revision anymore though... I'll try to do it again tonight or tomorrow. I was working directly on GH for laziness, I'll pull it for real this time =)
