Trigger flip with ngSwipeLeft / ngSwipeRight

[awaldron]

I'm interested in using this script on a touchscreen device and trigger the flip using ngTouch events. I'd also like the filp to read the swipe direction and flip accordingly.

I tried including this into the flip attribute but it's not recognizing the swipe (ngTouch is installed)

flip="['click', 'ngSwipeLeft', 'ng-swipe-right']"

Any ideas?

Thanks

hey alan, this is because angular-flippy only listens to native javascript events. swiping is an augmented event.

since you have ngTouch added, you could go <div flip="['custom:SWIPE_LEFT]" ng-swipe-left="$ctrl.swipeLeft()"> and in your controller:

function swipeLeft() {
    $rootScope.$broadcast('SWIPE_LEFT');
}

this should work in my head, haven't tried it on actual paper :)
whatcha think? cheers
