How do I create an AngularJS UI bootstrap popover with HTML content?

I have posted a solution on the github project: https://github.com/angular-ui/bootstrap/issues/520

I you want to add this functionality to your project, here is a patch.

Add those directives:

angular.module("XXX")
    .directive("popoverHtmlUnsafePopup", function () {
      return {
        restrict: "EA",
        replace: true,
        scope: { title: "@", content: "@", placement: "@", animation: "&", isOpen: "&" },
        templateUrl: "template/popover/popover-html-unsafe-popup.html"
      };
    })

    .directive("popoverHtmlUnsafe", [ "$tooltip", function ($tooltip) {
      return $tooltip("popoverHtmlUnsafe", "popover", "click");
    }]);

And add the template:

<div class="popover {{placement}}" ng-class="{ in: isOpen(), fade: animation() }">
  <div class="arrow"></div>

  <div class="popover-inner">
      <h3 class="popover-title" ng-bind="title" ng-show="title"></h3>
      <div class="popover-content" bind-html-unsafe="content"></div>
  </div>
</div>

Usage: <button popover-placement="top" popover-html-unsafe="On the <b>Top!</b>" class="btn btn-default">Top</button>

Use the popover-template directive

If you are using a version of angular-ui equal or above 0.13.0, your best option is to use the popover-template directive. Here is how to use it:

<button popover-template="'popover.html'">My HTML popover</button>

<script type="text/ng-template" id="popover.html">
    <div>
        Popover content
    </div>
</script>

NB: Do not forget the quotes around the template name in popover-template="'popover.html'".

See demo plunker

---

As a side note, it is possible to externalize the popover template in a dedicated html file, instead of declaring it in a <script type="text/ng-template> element as above.

See second demo plunker

UPDATE:

As can been seen in this, you should now be able to do this without overriding the default template.

ORIGINAL:

As of angular 1.2+ ng-bind-html-unsafe has been removed. You should be using the $sce service Reference.

Here is a filter for creating trusted HTML.

MyApp.filter('unsafe', ['$sce', function ($sce) {
    return function (val) {
        return $sce.trustAsHtml(val);
    };
}]);

Here is the overwritten Angular Bootstrap 0.11.2 template making use of this filter

// update popover template for binding unsafe html
angular.module("template/popover/popover.html", []).run(["$templateCache", function ($templateCache) {
    $templateCache.put("template/popover/popover.html",
      "<div class=\"popover {{placement}}\" ng-class=\"{ in: isOpen(), fade: animation() }\">\n" +
      "  <div class=\"arrow\"></div>\n" +
      "\n" +
      "  <div class=\"popover-inner\">\n" +
      "      <h3 class=\"popover-title\" ng-bind-html=\"title | unsafe\" ng-show=\"title\"></h3>\n" +
      "      <div class=\"popover-content\"ng-bind-html=\"content | unsafe\"></div>\n" +
      "  </div>\n" +
      "</div>\n" +
      "");
}]);

EDIT: Here is a Plunker implementation.

EDIT 2: As this answer keeps getting hits, I'll keep it updated as best I can. As a reference Here is the template from the angular-ui bootstrap repo. If this changes, the override template will require matching updates and the addition of the ng-bind-html=\"title | unsafe\" and ng-bind-html=\"content | unsafe\" attributes to continue working.
