Using $emit to sortBy

[willSonic]

Hi,

I am looking for some helping sorting my isotope by Date using $scope.$emit and I am having absolutely no success...

I can sort with a button directive attribute 'ok-sel'
date

I can also use the falling $emit option...
$scope.$emit('iso-option', { sortBy:['original-order']});

However, when I try to do the following ...
$scope.$emit('iso-option', { sortBy:['date']});
absolutely nothing....

Could somebody possible point me toward an example using sortBy with $scope.$emit.

I am not using jquery with my angular project ... so it would be awesome to have a gander at one sans jquery... but I am so desperate any will do thank you ...

Thanks...
Will

I know this post is a couple of months old, but I was facing the same issue as the OP. Due to the lack of documentation around this project I looked at the sourcecode for answers and I figured out what angular-isotope does with the ok-sel and ok-type attributes.

The solution appears to be simple: just add opt[*]. For example:
$scope.$emit('iso-option', { sortBy: ['opt[date]'] });

Sorry to resurrect this post, but does anyone know if it possible to trigger a sort direction in this way?

I've tried both $scope.$emit('iso-option', { ascending: ['opt[$scope.sortAscending]'] }); and $scope.$emit('iso-option', { ascending: $scope.sortAscending }); but it doesn't seem to do anything. I could add the ascending=false to each of my sort buttons but that would double the number of buttons, I'd rather choose a sort property and then choose the direction.
