We just learned, cramming a bunch of logic into our HTML is kinda bad. Let's start the Right Way with a Controller which will control our tabs.javascript
1. Create a controller named TabController
.css
app.controller('TabController', function(){});
2. An empty Controller isn't much use. Do you remember why we needed a Controller at all? That's right, we need to initialize the tab
property. Go ahead and add that property now, setting it to 1
.html
app.controller('TabController', function(){ this.tab = 1; });
3. In order to set the current tab, we'll need a setTab
method to use in our HTML. It should set the tab
property of TabController
to a value passed in.java
app.controller('TabController', function(){ this.tab = 1; this.setTab = function(set_tab){ this.tab = set_tab; }; });
4. We've got a setTab
method, now we need an isSet
method that accepts a value and indicates whether that value matches the tab
parameter.bootstrap
app.controller('TabController', function(){ this.tab = 1; this.setTab = function(set_tab){ this.tab = set_tab; }; this.isSet = function(set_tab){ return this.tab === set_tab; }; });
