Can I make the code in ng-model work anyhow, as I need to show the first as well as the last name?
What I basically want is to turn this
{{currentInventory.assigned.first_name + ' ' + currentInventory.assigned.last_name}}
into this:
ng-model="currentInventory.assigned.first_name + ' ' + currentInventory.assigned.last_name"
Aren't you confusing ng-model and ng-bind ?
ng-model purpose is to bind a field to a scope variable.
ng-bind purpose is to display a value by evaluating an angular expression like yours
You could also do something as follow :
<textarea ng-model="yourmodel" ng-init="yourmodel="currentInventory.assigned.first_name + ' ' + currentInventory.assigned.last_name" ng-bind="yourmodel"></textarea>
That:
scope.yourmodel to your field ng-bind (or ng-value or other..)
in controller :
$scope.text = $scope.currentInventory.assigned.first_name + ' '+ $scope.currentInventory.assigned.last_name;
in HTML
<input type="text" ng-model="text" />
Append the value in conroller and send that value to model.
