angularjs scope.$watch and expression with square brackets

I have found some legacy code in the product that I work on:

$scope.$watch("[timeRange]", function() {
  doStuff();
}, true);

timeRange is an object on the scope.

I don’t understand this syntax of watching something with square brackets round it. I have searched the web and the angularjs documentation and still can’t work it out. Can someone help explain what this construct means?

Using PHP and MySQL data to generate PDF letters like in MS Word mailmerge functionality - development

Using PHP and MySQL data to generate PDF letters like in MS Word mailmerge functionality I would really like to know if there is a way like MS Word mailmerge functionality that can be done using PHP and Mysql data. Like i have address data in MySQL (suppose 10 numbers) and through PHP i want to insert that address data in a pre-defined letter head area. And it will automatically generate 10 different letters with same content but different address in PDF. Can it be done? Any start up point will be helpful. As I am working on Laravel so any snippet of that sort will also be useful. Thanks in advance. from Laravel Questions and Answers https://laravelquestions.com/php/using-php-and-mysql-data-to-generate-pdf-letters-like-in-ms-word-mailmerge-functionality/ via Lzo Media

ng-include of inline SVG does not display gradient except in Chrome

I have setup an NG-INCLUDE which loads an SVG file that has classes “hover_color_change” so that the correct polygons can have their fill attribute updated: <div class="prod-illustration-div col s12 m8"> <div class="prod-svg-wrapper" ng-include="'/img/illustrations/illustration_' + productIdObj.illustration + '.svg'" onload="defaultFill(productIdObj.colors)"> </div> </div> I then have color swatches which trigger the $scope.hoverColorText() which calls the updateSVGFill() method to display the SVG fill matching the hover color and creates a shading of gradient so it’s not a solid color. Here is live link – WORKS IN CHROME In Chrome it works, however, in Safari, FF, Edge, it does not. I referenced this suggested answer which suggests referencing the ID attribute, which I believe I am already doing: $scope.defaultFill = function (colors) { if (colors) { var defaultCol...
