I'm trying to build a form in Angular, but i'm new with it, so I need some help :)
I have a field 'email' which should be checked when the user leave that field. A function in my controller should to check the entered value if it already exist in the database (ajax/http).
I found the 'ng-blur' function and have created a function in my controller to check the email. But, the $scope.user.email is undefined, and I don't known what i'm doing wrong. Can somebody help me?
This is my code so far:
HTML (jade)
p.claim-text Email
abbr.required.claim-text(title='required') *
input#billing_email.input-text.form-control.claim-input(type='email', placeholder='Email', value='', name='email', ng-model='user.email', ng-blur='checkEmail()' required)
p(ng-show="registerForm.email.$invalid && !registerForm.email.$pristine").help-block Invalid emailadres
p(ng-show="emailExists").help-block User exists! Click here to login
Controller function
$scope.checkEmail = function(){
console.log($scope.user.email);
$http({
method: 'GET',
url: '[someurl]',
data: $scope.user.email,
}).then(function successCallback(response){
//if response is true, set emailExists to true;
}, function errorCallback(response){
});
}

You can pass the email to checkEmail function
input#billing_email.input-text.form-control.claim-input(type='email', placeholder='Email', value='', name='email', ng-model='user.email', ng-blur='checkEmail()' required)
Then in controller you just need to get the email from argument
$scope.checkEmail = function(){
console.log($scope.user.email);
$http({
method: 'GET',
url: '[someurl]',
data: $scope.user.email,
}).then(function successCallback(response){
//if response is true, set emailExists to true;
}, function errorCallback(response){
});
}

Please try this snipped
var myApp = angular.module('myApp',[]);
myApp.controller('GreetingController', ['$scope','$http', function($scope, $http) {
//You can check POST at server side to get the entered email
$scope.checkEmail = function(email){
//REMOVE THIS LINE
console.log(email);return false;
$http({
method: 'POST',
url: '[someurl]',
data: email,
}).then(function successCallback(response){
//if response is true, set emailExists to true;
}, function errorCallback(response){
});
}
}]);
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.23/angular.min.js"></script>
<!--HTML -->
<div ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="GreetingController">
<input type="text" ng-blur="checkEmail(email)" ng-model="email"/>
</div>
OR
<!--JADE -->
input#billing_email.input-text.form-control.claim-input(type='email', placeholder='Email', name='email', ng-model='user.email', ng-blur='checkEmail(user.email)' ng-init="user.email=''" required)
