This module gives you the standalone front-end of tellform. It handles form rendering and form ui. For you to use this module you must have an API endpoint, such as FormKeep or Formlets.

<section class="content" ng-controller="MyFormCtrl">
	<angular-tellform myform="form" endPoint="https://myurl.com/endpoint"></angular-tellform>
</section>

Installation

via bower

bower install angular-tellform

Quick Example

This serves as a quick guide to setting up and using angular-tellform in a small angular project. If you are looking for API documentation, please refer to the next section instead.

Step 1. Add as a dependency

First add angular-tellform as a dependency to your angular module/app.

app.js

'use strict';

angular.module('myModule', ['angular-tellform']);

Step 2. Set the form data

Set $scope.form in your controller to the JSON object of your form.

app.js

...

angular.module('myModule').controller('MyFormCtrl', function MyFormCtrl($scope) {
    
    $scope.form = {
        "title": "Job Application Example",
        "design": {
            "colors": {
                "buttonTextColor": "#5C780A",
                "buttonColor": "#C5F044",
                "answerColor": "#333",
                "questionColor": "#6D8524",
                "backgroundColor": "#E4F8A8"
            }
        },
        "hideFooter": false,
        "startPage": {
            "buttons": [],
            "introButtonText": "Apply Now",
            "introTitle": "We're looking for a great Growth Hacker",
            "showStart": true
        },
        "form_fields": [{
            "lastModified": "2016-04-22T23:02:46.017Z",
            "title": "How would you rate your experience and knowledge of running split tests?",
            "fieldType": "rating",
            "fieldValue": 1,
            "_id": "571940102aa1f3ff5e205b5d",
            "validFieldTypes": ["textfield", "date", "email", "link", "legal", "url", "textarea", "statement", "welcome", "thankyou", "file", "dropdown", "scale", "rating", "radio", "checkbox", "hidden", "yes_no", "natural", "number"],
            "deletePreserved": false,
            "disabled": false,
            "required": true,
            "ratingOptions": {
                "shape": "thumbs-up",
                "steps": 5
            },
            "description": ""
        }, {
            "lastModified": "2016-04-22T23:02:46.017Z",
            "title": "And how would you rate your creativity and ability to find innovative solutions?",
            "fieldType": "rating",
            "fieldValue": 1,
            "_id": "571940222aa1f3ff5e205b5e",
            "validFieldTypes": ["textfield", "date", "email", "link", "legal", "url", "textarea", "statement", "welcome", "thankyou", "file", "dropdown", "scale", "rating", "radio", "checkbox", "hidden", "yes_no", "natural", "number"],
            "deletePreserved": false,
            "disabled": false,
            "required": true,
            "ratingOptions": {
                "shape": "thumbs-up",
                "steps": 5
            },
            "description": ""
        }],
        "language": "english"
    };

    $scope.endPoint="https://myurl.com/endpoint";

});

Step 3. Modifying the view

Then add the angular-tellform directive to your controller's html view

view.html

...
<body ng-app="myModule">
	<section class="content" ng-controller="MyFormCtrl">
		<angular-tellform myform="form" endPoint="endPoint"></angular-tellform>
	</section>
</body>
...

After this you will have a form displayed inside your section element. Since the directive is bounded to $scope.form, if you want to update the form all you need to do is change $scope.form to a new value.

Form JSON Spec

A typical JSON object for form data will look like this:

{
        "title": "Job Application Example",
        "design": {
            "colors": {
                "buttonTextColor": "#5C780A",

                "questionColor": "#6D8524",
                "backgroundColor": "#E4F8A8"
            }
        },
        "hideFooter": false,
        "startPage": {
            "buttons": [],
            "introButtonText": "Apply Now",
