Example

<div class="page" ng-controller="AppCtrl">
  <div class="container" ng-swipe-up="swipe($event)">
    <h1>Swipe me up!</h1>
  </div>
</div>
var app = angular.module('app', [ 'swipe' ]);
app.controller('AppCtrl', function AppCtrl($scope) {
  $scope.swipe = function($event) {
    console.log($event);
  };
})

Known issues and workarounds

  • ng-swipe-up and ng-swipe-down uses preventDefault when you start swiping. This prevents clicks from giving focus to input fields. Adding a noPreventDefault class to these elements will not preventDefault when the swipe start on them and thus allow clicks to work.

  • When embedding a Google map you might want to prevent a swipe event specifically inside the map. You can do that by adding the noStartDrag class to the Google map HTML element
