Unbind ng-change AngularJS

Question

Hi I want to know is there is a way to stop a ng-change function from been executed programatically.

I am building a search suggestions feature that calls an API using ng-change (passing the input, send it to a service, then back to the controller with the model created). But If the user decides, she/he can click a button to disable the feature. As far as I know, I can make stop the API calls, but not the event itself from being fired.

Any suggestions are more than welcome.

I think that's exactly you are looking for:

<input ng-change="userDecision || doSomething()">

What else you need? I solved your problem. User decision is a bool variables, if use wants can disable doSomethind() setting userDecision variable to false. – Serginho Jan 19 '16 at 08:45
