JSPM – jquery.repeater@1.0.0

Package Exports

jquery.repeater

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (jquery.repeater) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

#Repeater

Creates an interface to add and remove a repeatable group of input elements.

###Demo

##Templates

Repeater uses the first "data-repeater-item" as a template for added items.

##Rewritten Name Attributes.

Repeater rewrites your name attributes to avoid collisions within the same form. (since the name attributes will be repeated). In the example below, the name attributes would be renamed group-a[0][text-input] and group-a[1][text-input].

Checkbox inputs will have an additional [] appended. So for example a checkbox with name foo would be mapped to group-a[0][foo][].

Names get reindexed if an item is added or deleted.

##Example

<form class="repeater">
    <!--
        The value given to the data-repeater-list attribute will be used as the
        base of rewritten name attributes.  In this example, the first
        data-repeater-item's name attribute would become group-a[0][text-input],
        and the second data-repeater-item woulc become group-a[1][text-input]
    -->
    <div data-repeater-list="group-a">
      <div data-repeater-item>
        <input type="text" name="text-input" value="A"/>
        <input data-repeater-delete type="button" value="Delete"/>
      </div>
      <div data-repeater-item>
        <input type="text" name="text-input" value="B"/>
        <input data-repeater-delete type="button" value="Delete"/>
      </div>
    </div>
    <input data-repeater-create type="button" value="Add"/>
</form>
