initialize textbox value

[mthompson]

Is it possible to set the input textbox value. Example... you load a view with data from a service call that populates the view on initial page load and you need to set the value of the lookup textbox initially.

Is this already possible. If so, how?

yeah.. have the same question i have solved this by adding

"model":"=?ngModel" 

$scope.$watch('model', function (value) {
                        if (angular.isUndefined(value)) {
                            return;
                        }
                        if (value === null) {
                            $scope.searchStr = '';
                        } else {
                            if (!angular.equals($scope.searchStr, value)) {
                                // $scope.searchTimerComplete(value);
                                $scope.searchStr = value;
                            }
                        }
                    });

Its allow 'clear' and 'fill' field, but its listening ng-model from directive-tag, so you need add it. also you can remove '//' if you need run search.

Vincent l'a fait: Broadcast the event and watch it : In your angucomplete.js, add : ```

  $scope.$on('clearInput', function () {
            	 $scope.searchStr = null;
            })

Then , in your controller,
`$scope.$broadcast('clearInput');`
