Hey everyone,

I’ve been mucking around with directives for that last few days and one of my requirements has been a simple timepicker. Nothing too fancy, but if anyone would like to use it – feel free.

See the following fiddle for the demo: http://jsfiddle.net/LFB3F/2/

The directive is initialised with both the hour and minute defaults being set like this:

Note that hours and minutes should be set in the controller that wraps around the Timepicker:

app.controller("MyCtrl", function MyCtrl($scope) {
    $scope.hours = 11;
    $scope.minutes = 45;       
});

The hours and minutes will then be updated whenever the user changes the value. If you need any other hooks it’s fairly easy to modify and there are a heap of comments.

You may also want to put the HTML in an external template. Just make the following changes to the directive (note templateURL):

app.directive("ngTimeSelector", function () {
    return {
        restrict: 'EA',
        templateUrl: '/Directives/TimeSelector',
        scope: {
            hours: "=",
            minutes: "="
        },
        replace: true,
        link: function (scope, elem, attr) {
...
...

The JSFiddle is probably the easiest way to see how it all works. You can simply copy it from there to your app. Alternatively, I’ve dumped the code below:

Uncondensed HTML (for those who prefer to use a template)

 
    

        

            
        
        

            {{displayHours()}}
        
        
         

            
        
    
    

        

            
        
        

            {{displayMinutes()}}
        
        
         

            
        
    
    
    

        

            
        
        
= 12" class="display">
            PM
        
        <div ng-if="hours 
            AM
