Submitted by razormist on Sunday, January 19, 2020 - 21:47.

In this tutorial we will create a Display HTML List Using AngularJS. This code will add a new list in ul tag when the user submit the form input. The code use angular directives that can dynamically display array value a a readable HTML ul tag. This a user-friendly program feel free to modify and use it to your system. We will be using AngularJS as a comprehensive JavaScript framework that extend the browser capabilities. It handles the heavy lifting of DOM manipulation and AJAX request in a whole.

Getting Started:

First you have to download Bootstrap, this is the link for the bootstrap that i used for the layout design https://getbootstrap.com/. And, this is the link for the AngularJS https://angularjs.org/.

Creating The Interface

This is where we will create a simple form for our application. To create the forms simply copy and write it into you text editor, then save it index.html.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" ng-app="myModule">
        <head>
                <meta charsert="UTF-8" name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"/>
                <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap.css" />
        </head>
<body ng-controller="myController">
        <nav class="navbar navbar-default">
                <div class="container-fluid">
                        <a class="navbar-brand" href="https://sourcecodester.com">Sourcecodester</a>
                </div>
        </nav>
        <div class="col-md-3"></div>
        <div class="col-md-6 well">
                <h3 class="text-primary">JavaScript - Display HTML List Using AngularJS</h3>
                <hr style="border-top:1px dotted #ccc;"/>
                <div class="col-md-4">
                        <form>
                                <div class="form-group">
                                        <label>Enter a Movie Title</label>
                                        <input type="text" class="form-control" ng-model="newMovieList.movie_title"/>
                                </div>
                                <center><button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" ng-click = "saveMovie()"><span class = "glyphicon glyphicon-save"></span> Save</button></center>
                        </form>
                </div>
                <div class="col-md-8">  
                        <h3>MY MOVIE LIST 2020</h3>
                        <ul ng-repeat="movie in movies">
                                <li>{{movie.movie_title}}</li>
                        </ul>
                </div>  
        </div>
<script src="js/angular.js"></script>
<script src="js/script.js"></script>    
</body> 
</html>

Creating the Main Function

This code contains the main function of the application. This code will add new list in ul tag when the button is clicked. To do this just copy and write these block of codes as shown below inside the text editor and save it as script.js.

var app = angular.module("myModule", [])
                .controller("myController", function($scope){
                        $scope.movies = [
                                {movie_title: "Black Widow"},
                        ];
                        
                        $scope.newMovieList = {};
                        
                        $scope.saveMovie = function(){
                                $scope.movies.push($scope.newMovieList);
                                $scope.newMovieList = {};
                        };
                        
});
