I need to request data from my REST api, using Angular 4.3 HttpClient. My component uses Subject class to provide server side filtering (as the user types the term) and pagination, but I also need to allow multiple selection of items using the checkboxes in the results data grid.
I have the following code to create a data grid:
<tr *ngFor="let vehicle of vehicles$ | async">
<td><input type="checkbox" name="vehicle-selection" id="vehicle-{{vehicle.id}}" value="{{vehicle.id}}" [ngModel]="vehicle.checked" (ngModelChange)="setChecked(vehicle.id, $event)" /></td>
<td>{{vehicle.chassis}}</td>
<td>{{vehicle.lastUpdate || '' | amFromUtc | amDateFormat: 'DD/MM/YYYY'}}</td>
<td>{{vehicle.description}}</td>
<td>{{vehicle.location}}</td>
</tr>
vehicles$ is an observable<Vehicle[]> and the data is displayed correctly, however, when I change the checked state for some checkboxes, the vehicle.checked property in the data bound observable is not changed.
What am I missing?
