I have an Ember.js application, and for a form in it, I am using ember-power-select. I already used that addon, but I have some problems with how to configure the selected
element. As the title say, I am asking for help with how to configure the selected
with a function.
I want to set the selected variable with a function that retrieve a variable from a services.
My component look like that:
import Ember from 'ember';
export default Ember.Component.
appInfo: Ember.inject.service('app-info'),
languageOption: ['Français', 'English'],
language() {
/*
* In my service appInfo, I have a function called getLocale
* that return the current locale variable.
*/
return this.get('appInfo').getLocale();
},
actions: {
changeLanguage(lang)
{
this.set('language', lang);
}
}
});
And my template look like that:
{{#power-select
selected=language
options=languageOption
searchEnabled=false
onchange=(action 'changeLanguage')
placeholder=language
as |lang|}}
{{lang}}
{{/power-select}}
As you can see I'm trying to set my selected
value with the current locale
obtained via the service appInfo
. Everything is working just fine except the selected part.
In the template, you can see that 'selected' is a value that can be set within a component, except that I don't want to set the value with a hardcoded one, but with the current value of locale.
Every tips and/or help is appreciated!
Just solved it, I used
init()
to make it work. As @BrandonW said in the comment, a computed property doesn't work too.This is the code that I putted in my component:
This is what you want to do if you want to use a function to set
selected
in ember-power-select addon.
