Indeterminate ngModel behavior when updateOn is blur #12455

The example for the issue described here can be checked on CodePen.

Let's assume you have the following setup:

  • An input field with ngModel on it, having ng-model-options="{updateOn: 'blur'}"
  • A button with ngClick on it, where the handler function using the value of the model from scope

Executing the following steps has different results on mouse and on touch devices:

  • Edit the input value
  • Click on the button directly (without clicking anywhere else first)

With mouse based input the ngClick handler can access the current input value on scope, and it is the same value that you can see in the input field.

On touch devices however, when the ngClick handler is executed the value is not updated yet (see the CodePen example with Chrome DevTools device emulation to see it happening).

It looks like ngTouch is to blame, as the touchdown happens before the blur, and ngTouch will evaluate the ngClick expression before the blur happens. We are currently evaluating if we will deprecate ngTouch, so it might be a good idea for you to switch to fastclick.js / hammer.js.

In your specific example, this should also work: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/KpEMNW?editors=101

We are currently evaluating if we will deprecate ngTouch

@Narretz What are the chances? :)

We have a quite big code base here, and I would only suggest this transition to our client if it is a future proof one.

Narretz added a commit to Narretz/angular.js that referenced this issue Jan 26, 2016
This commit removes the ngClick directive from the ngTouch module.
The directive was conceived to remove the 300ms delay
for click events on mobile browsers, by sending a synthetic click event on touchstart.
It also tried to make sure that the original click event that the browser sends after 300ms
was "busted", so that no redundant "ghost-clicks" appear.

There are various reasons why this feature has been removed:

- "This is an ugly, terrible hack!" (says so in the source)
- It is plagued by various bugs that are hard to fix / test for all platforms (see below)
- Simply including ngTouch activates the ngClick override, which means even if you simply want
to use ngSwipe, you may break parts of your app
- There exist alternatives for removing the 300ms delay, that can be used very well with Angular:
[FastClick](https://github.com/ftlabs/fastclick), [Tappy!](https://github.com/filamentgroup/tappy/)
(There's also hammer.js for touch events / gestures)
- The 300ms delay itself is on the way out - Chrome and Firefox for Android remove the 300ms delay
when the usual `<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">` is set. In IE, the
`touch-action` css property can be set to `none` or `manipulation` to remove the delay. Finally,
since iOs 8, Safari doesn't delay "slow" taps anymore. There are some caveats though, which can be
found in this excellent article on which this summary is based: http://developer.telerik.com/featured/300-ms-click-delay-ios-8/

Note that this change does not affect the `ngSwipe` directive.

BREAKING CHANGE:

The `ngClick` override from the `ngTouch` module has been removed. This means that on
touch-based devices, users might experience a 300ms delay before an ngClick event is fired.

If you rely on this behavior, consider using [FastClick](https://github.com/ftlabs/fastclick) or
[Tappy!](https://github.com/filamentgroup/tappy/). Also note that modern browsers remove the 300ms
delay under some circumstances:
- Chrome and Firefox for Android remove the 300ms delay when the well-known `<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">` is set
- Internet Explorer removes the delay when  `touch-action` css property is set to `none` or `manipulation`
- Since iOs 8, Safari removes the delay on so-called "slow taps"

BREAKING CHANGE:

The `ngClick` override directive from the `ngTouch` module is **deprecated and disabled by default**.
This means that on touch-based devices, users might now experience a 300ms delay before a click event is fired.

If you rely on this directive, you can still enable it with the `$touchProvider.ngClickOverrideEnabled()`method:

```js
angular.module('myApp').config(function($touchProvider) {
  $touchProvider.ngClickOverrideEnabled(true);
});
```

For migration, we recommend using [FastClick](https://github.com/ftlabs/fastclick).
Also note that modern browsers remove the 300ms delay under some circumstances:
- Chrome and Firefox for Android remove the 300ms delay when the well-known `<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">` is set
- Internet Explorer removes the delay when  `touch-action` css property is set to `none` or `manipulation`
- Since iOs 8, Safari removes the delay on so-called "slow taps"

See this [article by Telerik](http://developer.telerik.com/featured/300-ms-click-delay-ios-8/) for more info on the topic.
Note that this change does not affect the `ngSwipe` directive.
Narretz added a commit to Narretz/angular.js that referenced this issue Jan 27, 2016
This commit deprecates the ngClick directive from the ngTouch module.
Additionally, it disables it by default. It can be enabled in the new $touchProvider with
$touchProvider.ngClickOverrideEnabled() method.

The directive was conceived to remove the 300ms delay
for click events on mobile browsers, by sending a synthetic click event on touchstart.
It also tried to make sure that the original click event that the browser sends after 300ms
was "busted", so that no redundant "ghost-clicks" appear.

There are various reasons why the directive is being deprecated.

- "This is an ugly, terrible hack!" (says so in the source)
- It is plagued by various bugs that are hard to fix / test for all platforms (see below)
- Simply including ngTouch activates the ngClick override, which means even if you simply want
to use ngSwipe, you may break parts of your app
- There exist alternatives for removing the 300ms delay, that can be used very well with Angular:
[FastClick](https://github.com/ftlabs/fastclick), [Tappy!](https://github.com/filamentgroup/tappy/)
(There's also hammer.js for touch events / gestures)
- The 300ms delay itself is on the way out - Chrome and Firefox for Android remove the 300ms delay
when the usual `<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width">` is set. In IE, the
`touch-action` css property can be set to `none` or `manipulation` to remove the delay. Finally,
since iOs 8, Safari doesn't delay "slow" taps anymore. There are some caveats though, which can be
found in this excellent article on which this summary is based: http://developer.telerik.com/featured/300-ms-click-delay-ios-8/

Note that this change does not affect the `ngSwipe` directive.
