angularjs - ng-select gives only string, but I want an integer

Question

This is my angular html file code. In my mongo database frequencyType added as frequencyType = "1", but I want frequencyType = NumberInt(1);

<div class="span4">
  <select class="span12 combobox" ng-model="frequencyType" required>
    <option value="1">Daily</option>
    <option value="2">Weekly</option>
    <option value="3">Monthly</option>
    <option value="4">Yearly</option>
  </select>
</div>

I get in my database frequencyType = "1" but I want frequencyType = NumberInt(1).

Answer 1

I suggest you to try to use indexOf.

JS

function MyCtrl($scope) {
    $scope.values = ["Daily","Weekly","Monthly","Yearly"];
    $scope.selectedItem = 0;
}

HTML

<div ng-app ng-controller="MyCtrl">
    <select ng-model="selectedItem" ng-options="values.indexOf(selectedItem) as selectedItem for selectedItem in values"></select>
    selectedItem: {{selectedItem}}
</div>

Demo Fiddle

So send to mongoDB $scope.selectedItem value
