I'm trying to read the following fields (LocationID ..) that I can see in the console when I wrote
console.log($scope.businessInformation);
Console photo capture
Can you help me please?
Thanks
Script.js
app.controller('ProfileController', ['$scope', function($scope) {
$scope.dropLink = '1';
$scope.dropContentLink = '1';
}]);
app.factory('infoService', ['$resource', function($resource){
return $resource('/api/business-information/:id');
}]);
app.controller('BusinessInfoController', ['$scope', 'infoService', function($scope, infoService) {
$scope.isActive = 1;
$scope.is_active_label = 'Active';
$scope.getInfo = function() {
$scope.businessInformation = infoService.query({id: $scope.businessInformation.industryID});
console.log($scope.businessInformation);
};
$scope.updateLabel = function(){
if($scope.isActive === 1){
$scope.is_active_label = 'Active';
}else {
$scope.is_active_label = 'Not Active';
}
};
}]);
routes/api.js
router.route('/business-information/:id')
.get(function(req, res){
conn.query('CALL Inductry_Location_Get(?)', [req.params.id],function(err,info){
if(err) res.send(err);
console.log('Data received from Db:\n');
console.log(info[0]);
return res.send(info);
});
}) ;
module.exports = router;
$resource is awesome because when you call an action like query, the object you receive back will be auto populated as soon as the promise resolves. The problem here is you try to log it right after calling it before the promise gets resolved.
If you want to use it from your controller, you can add your code to the promise which is a property $promise
$scope.getInfo = function() {
$scope.businessInformation = infoService.query({
id: $scope.businessInformation.industryID
});
$scope.businessInformation.$promise.then(function(data) {
// Access data parameter or
console.log(data);
// Use $scope.businessInformation directly since its populated at this point
console.log($scope.businessInformation);
});
};
If you are wanting to use it on your view, you can use the $resolved parameter to know if the data is ready yet.
<div ng-show="businessInformation.$resolved">{{ businessInformation }}</div>
I also want to point out an oddity which is you using $scope.businessInformation before the query is even run. You pass $scope.businessInformation.industryId into the query params.

I'm a beginner in AngularJS. I'm here trying to fetch the data from JSON using service and display it. I'm having separate files for controllers, services. I'm unable to find out what I'm doing wrong here. I learned that we return an object in case of factory but, I'm not sure how to return the value when using services. The code that I tried is below.
HTML: I have an index.html file into which I load this HTML:
<div ng-controller="comp">
{{capcino}}
</div>
Controller:
var app = angular.module("retailapp");
app.controller("comp", function($scope, elecservice){
$scope.capcino = elecservice.getval();
});
Service:
angular.module("retailapp").service("elecservice", serjson);
function serjson($http){
var val = "";
this.getval = function(){
$http.get("/elec.json").success(function(res){
val = res.namet;
return val;
});
}
}
Routing:
var app = angular.module("retailapp", ['ngRoute']);
app.config(function($routeProvider){
$routeProvider.when("/computer", {
templateUrl : "computer.html",
controller : "comp"
});
JSON:
{"namet" : "naysan"}
I want to display the value "capcino" in expression in HTML. I'm getting undefined for that value. Kindly help with explanation. Thanks in advance.
Write as follow:
var app = angular.module("retailapp");
app.controller("comp", function($scope, elecservice){
elecservice.getval().then(function(data){
$scope.capcino = data;
});
});
It's a promise so it sets $scope.capcino after it returns. Until that return occurs $scope.capcino is undefined.
var app = angular.module("retailapp");
app.controller("comp", function($scope, elecservice){
elecservice.getval().then(function(data){
$scope.capcino = data;
});
});
Just change your controller to store the data.
$scope.yourFunc = function(params){
YouService.function(params).then(function(result){
$scope.yourVar = result.data;
}
})
}
}
I have a pretty standard app which will display news items from a remote JSON feed. So basically I have decided to poll the remote server and store the JSON in localStorage (to enable offline usage). For the moment, I have a manual page/view I must click on to update the localStorage , this works fine.
The problem is that after I use my temporary manual update page, I then go to the news page/view and it is not updated. To view the current JSON contents I must hit refresh (while still developing in the browser.)
I'm totally new to Angular and have tried to find solutions to this myself - $watch or reload: true seem to be suggested as fixes, but I cannot get them to work in my case.
Route
.state('tab.news', {
url: '/news',
reload: true,
views: {
'news-tab': {
templateUrl: 'templates/news_home.html',
controller: 'newsCtrl'
}
}
})
factory
angular.module('schoolApp.services', [])
.factory('newsService', function($q) {
var newsHeadlines =localStorage.getItem('newsHeadlines') || '{"status":"READFAIL"}'; // get news as a JSON string. if newsHeadlines not found return a JSON string with fail status
var newsHeadlinesObj = JSON.parse(newsHeadlines);// convert to an object
console.log("factory newsService ran");
return {
findAll: function() {
var deferred = $q.defer();
deferred.resolve(newsHeadlinesObj);
return deferred.promise; // or reject(reason) to throw an error in the controller https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$q
},
findById: function(newsId) {
var deferred = $q.defer();
var newsItem = newsHeadlinesObj[newsId];
deferred.resolve(newsItem);
return deferred.promise;
}
}
});
Controller
schoolApp.controller('newsCtrl', function($scope, newsService) {
console.log ( 'newsCtrl ran' );
newsService.findAll().then(function (newsHeadlinesObj) {
$scope.newsHeadlinesObj = newsHeadlinesObj;
}, function(error){
console.log(error)
});
})
Looking at my console, the first time I read the news, the factory then controller run, but if I go to pull more data down, then go hack to news, only the controller runs, unless I refresh, then both run again.
I do not need the news view to update 'live' while still on it (but if that can be easilly done all the better) - just to pick up new data when you go back to news after being elsewhere in the app.
Thank you.
Factories return singletons and only run once. The object newsService is cached by angular. The var declarations for newsHeadlines and newsHeadlinesObj will only ever run once; meaning your promise returning methods will always resolve the promise with the same data that was retrieved when your factory was first instantiated. You should put them in a function and call it from your find methods on the singleton object.
.factory('newsService', function($q) {
function getHeadlines() {
var newsHeadlines = localStorage.getItem('newsHeadlines') || '{"status":"READFAIL"}'; // get news as a JSON string. if newsHeadlines not found return a JSON string with fail
return JSON.parse(newsHeadlines);// convert to an object
}
return {
findAll: function() {
var headlines = getHeadlines();
var deferred = $q.defer();
deferred.resolve(headlines);
return deferred.promise; // or reject(reason) to throw an error in the controller https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$q
},
findById: function(newsId) {
var headlines = getHeadlines();
var deferred = $q.defer();
var newsItem = headlines[newsId];
deferred.resolve(newsItem);
return deferred.promise;
}
}
});
PS - I'm sure you know and are planning to do things differently later or something, but just in case you don't: Using promises here is pointless and you have no need for $q here. You could simply return the data instead of returning the promises.
I solved this withouut promises, I just used $rootScope in the factory and $scope.$on in the controller; when I change the factory, i use $rootScope.$broadcast to tell the controller that I change it.
.factory('dataFactory', ['$http', '$rootScope', function ($http, $rootScope) {
var dataFactory = {
stock: null,
getStock: getStock
}
function getStock() {
$http.get("/api/itemfarmacia/").then(function success(res) {
dataFactory.stock = res.data;
$rootScope.$broadcast('changingStock'); //Ones who listen this will see it
}, function error(err) {
console.log("Bad request");
})
}
return dataFactory;
}])
and in the controller
.controller('atencion', ["$scope", "$state", "dataFactory", function ($scope, $state, dataFactory) {
$scope.stock = dataFactory.stock; //At first is null
dataFactory.getStock(); //wherever you execute this, $scope.stock will change
$scope.$on('changingStock', function () {//Listening
$scope.stock = dataFactory.stock; //Updating $scope
})
}])
I am trying to create a service when I can set my formSubmit.
For example. In controller A I call "service.setFormSubmit(doThis(obj))" and in controller B I call "service.getFormSubmit()". Where it will execute the function doThis(obj) in controller B.
UPDATE - Re-formulated question.
I have 1 view where I want to edit or create a category. This means I need a dynamic ng-submit. I want to to this in the controller. So like this:
$scope.editCategory = function(obj) {
$scope.formSubmit = 'editCategory'
}
And on the create I want to change the formSubmit var to createCategory of course.
So I can make a difference between creating and editing the category.
Is this possible? Would be really nice if someone has a way to do this..!
Thanks in advance!
Instead of passing around strings which need to be eval'ed, use the service to share functionality directly between controllers.
The service can be dirt-simple:
.factory('MyService', function(){
var service = {};
return service;
});
Once injected and assigned to scope variables in both controllers you have an intermediary unit which can act as a modifiable channel for cross-controller collaboration.
.controller('FirstController', function($scope, MyService){
$scope.service = MyService;
})
.controller('SecondController', function($scope, MyService){
$scope.service = MyService;
$scope.service.create = function(obj){
console.log('Creating');
}
$scope.service.edit = function(obj){
console.log('Editing');
}
})
From the scope of FirstController, you can now call the function also available on the scope of SecondController:
<div ng-controller="FirstController">
<input type="checkbox" ng-model="button.type"> Toggle create/edit<br/>
<button ng-if="button.type" ng-click="service.create(obj)">Create</button>
<button ng-if="!button.type" ng-click="service.edit(obj)">Edit</button>
</div>
Demo
If you aren't reloading the page you can create an encapsulated variable in your service. Your set call would assign the value passed to that variable and your get call would return that variable to the caller.
One way I have achieved passing the data is to submit the form using the service and return a Json result to the service. Store the Json object in the encapsulated variable on the return and then pass a success or failure to the controller. When successful, let the controller redirect the view which will redirect using angular routing and ng-view. Once the new view, along with the new controller is loaded into the page, you can call the variable in your service to retrieve the data on the next controller.
Example Code:
app.factory('service', function ($q, $http) {
var savedData;
return {
loadData: function() {
return data;
},
search: function (parameters) {
var searchURL = '/MVCController/Search?parameter1=' + parameters.one +
'¶meter2=' + parameters.two;
var deferred = $q.defer();
$http.get(searchURL).success(function (data) {
savedData = data;
deferred.resolve(true);
}).error(function(data) {
data = 'An error occurred while searching: ' + data;
savedData = data //(if you want to save the error)
deferred.reject(data);
});
return deferred.promise;
}
}
});
I have a 'messages' factory that will query my database for a list of messages.
I'm using the list of messages in two different places. Once to add a message count indicator, and then once to show a list of messages. Since I'm injecting the service into two different controllers, it seems like it's creating two instances of my factory, and hitting the database twice for the list.
How would I set things up to only ask for the list once, and use the list for both display and count purposes in both controllers?
My factory looks like this:
myApp.factory('messagesService', [
'$rootScope',
function($rootScope) {
var messages = [];
function query() {
// Would actually hit the database asyncronously
messages = ['one', 'two', 'three', 'four'];
console.log('query');
$rootScope.$emit('messages.update');
}
function all() {
return messages;
}
return {
query: query,
all: all
}
}
]);
My controllers are using blocks like this to watch for changes:
$rootScope.$on('messages.update', function() {
$scope.messagesCount = messagesService.all().length;
});
But it means i need a messagesService.query(); in each controller for things to be reliable.
So here are a few jsFiddle examples of it as I have things now:
Doesn't work (only updates the header): http://jsfiddle.net/TSLfc/1/
Works but would break if I didn't load the dashboard controller:
http://jsfiddle.net/TSLfc/2/
Works every time, but queries the server twice:
http://jsfiddle.net/TSLfc/3/
Is there a better way to organize my code? Should I build out the messages factory into it's own full module?
Here (Plunkr) is how I would do it:
I have gone back and modified my previous answer, updating with what we discussed in the comments below as well as using promises instead of the timeout as an asynchronous simulation I was showing before (see revision history for reference).
I also removed every variable/function that didn't need to be returned to the controller from the service object, if it doesn't need to be accessed via the controller than it doesn't need to be included on the returned object.
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', []);
myApp.factory('messagesService', [
'$q',
'$rootScope',
'$http',
function ($q, $rootScope, $http) {
var mService = {};
mService.messages = [];
var queryInit = false;
// We don't need to access this function in the controller
// So I am not going to attach to the returned object
var getMessages = function () {
// Stops each controller from getting messages when loaded
if (!queryInit) {
queryInit = true;
// Using the $q promise library we use 'then()' to handle
// What happens after the async call is returned
// The first function parameter is the success/resolve callback
// The second function parameter is the error/reject callback
mService.query().then(function (successResults) {
// Tell all of the controllers that the data has changed
$rootScope.$broadcast('messages.update');
}, function (errorResults) {
console.error(errorResults);
});
}
};
// Used to force an update from the controller if needed.
mService.query = function () {
var deferred = $q.defer();
$http.get('path/to/file.php')
.success(function (data, status, headers, config) {
// assign the returned values appropriately
mService.messages = data;
// this callback will be called asynchronously
// when the response is available
deferred.resolve(data);
})
.error(function (data, status, headers, config) {
// called asynchronously if an error occurs
// or server returns response with an error status.
deferred.reject(data);
});
return deferred.promise;
};
mService.getCount = function () {
return mService.messages.length;
};
mService.all = function () {
return mService.messages;
};
// Initialize the messages
// so we don't need to get the messages in each controller
getMessages();
return mService;
}]);
In your html, on your first controller setup an init function (ng-init="init()") that instantiates the factory:
<div ng-app="myApp">
<div ng-controller="HeaderCtrl" class="header" ng-init="init()">
Messages Count: {{ messageCount }}
</div>
<div ng-controller="DashboardCtrl" class="dashboard">
<ul ng-repeat="message in messages">
<li>{{ message }}</li>
</ul>
<button ng-click="getMessages()">Check for new messages.</button>
</div>
</div>
And in your controllers you just have the $rootScope.$on('messages.update' fn) and you can call manually by calling the services query() function which returns the promise:
myApp.controller('HeaderCtrl', [
'$scope',
'$rootScope',
'messagesService',
function ($scope, $rootScope, messagesService) {
$rootScope.$on('messages.update', function () {
$scope.messageCount = messagesService.getCount();
});
// Manual call, if needed
$scope.getMessageCount = function () {
messagesService.query().then(function (successCallback) {
$scope.messageCount = messagesService.getCount();
});
};
}]);
myApp.controller('DashboardCtrl', [
'$scope',
'$rootScope',
'messagesService',
function ($scope, $rootScope, messagesService) {
$rootScope.$on('messages.update', function () {
$scope.messages = messagesService.all();
});
// Manual call, if needed
$scope.getMessages = function () {
messagesService.query().then(function (successCallback) {
$scope.messages = messagesService.all();
$rootScope.$broadcast('messages.update');
});
}
}]);
You can set cache:true on a $http request. There are numerous ways to data bind within angular without needing to use the $broadcast approach you are using. Also note, $broadcast from a scope will be receievd by all descendent scopes, so no need to inject $rootSCope just for that purpose, can listen on $scope.
Here's one approach that controllers use promise of $http to retrieve data. I used a button click to retrive data for DashControl so can see that request does get cached
myApp.factory('messagesService',function($http) {
return{
query:function query(callback) {
/* return promise of the request*/
return $http.get('messages.json',{ cache:true}).then(function(res){
/* resolve what data to return, can set additional properties of the service here if desired*/
return res.data
}).then(callback);
}
}
});
myApp.controller('HeaderCtrl',function($scope, messagesService) {
messagesService.query(function(messages){
$scope.messagesCount = messages.length;
});
});
myApp.controller('DashboardCtrl', function($scope, messagesService) {
/* use button click to load same data, note in console no http request made*/
$scope.getMessages=function(){
messagesService.query(function(messages){
$scope.messages = messages;
})
}
});
Essentially in this scenario, whatever controller calls the factory service first will generate the data cache
DEMO
I would do it like that:
myApp.factory('messagesService', function() {
var expose = {
messages: []
};
expose.query = function () {
// Would actually hit the database asyncronously
expose.messages = ['one', 'two', 'three', 'four'];
console.log('query');
};
// Initialization
expose.query();
return expose;
}
);
And in your controllers:
$scope.messagesCount = messagesService.messages.length;
Model with broadcasting and pre-hitting database looks heavy for me.
So here is code, that can be embedded in service:
var sv = this;
var deferred = sv.$q.defer();
if (sv._running) {
return sv._running;
}
sv._running = deferred;
It based on reusing promise. To make it query database once - just don't set sv._running to false and it will always return first obtained result.
How can I use the totalResults outside of the function that Im setting it? I just cant wrap my head around how to do it, I need to use the totalResults that I gather from my database and use in another function to calculate the amount of pages. I do this so I dont load all the data to the client but I still need to know the total count of rows in the database table.
My json looks like:
Object {total: 778, animals: Array[20]}
Angular:
var app = angular.module('app', []);
app.controller('AnimalController', ['$scope', 'animalSrc', function($scope, animalSrc)
{
$scope.animals = [];
var skip = 0;
var take = 20;
var totalResults = null;
//$scope.totalResults = null;
$scope.list = function()
{
animalSrc.getAll(skip, take, function(data) {
$scope.animals = $scope.animals.concat(data.animals);
// I need to be able to use this outside of function ($scope.list)
totalResults = data.total;
//$scope.totalResults = data.total;
});
};
$scope.showMore = function()
{
skip += 20;
$scope.list();
};
$scope.hasMore = function()
{
//
};
// Outputs null, should be the total rows from the $http request
console.log(totalResults);
}]);
app.factory('animalSrc', ['$http', function($http)
{
// Private //
return {
getAll: function(skip, take, callback)
{
$http({
method: 'GET',
url: 'url' + skip + '/' + take
}).
success(function(data) {
callback(data);
}).
error(function(data) {
console.log('error: ' + data);
});
}
};
}]);
You need to start thinking asynchronously. Your console.log is called before the $http has returned and totalResults has been set. Therefore, totalResults will always be null.
You need to find some way to delay the call to console.log so that the $http call can finish before you run console.log. One way to do this would be to put the console.log call inside your callback function so that it is definitely called after $http's success.
A more elegant way to do this is to use promises. angular.js implements $q, which is similar to Q, a promise library.
http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng.$q
Instead of creating a callback function in getAll, you return a promise. Inside $http success, you resolve the promise with the data. Then, in your controller, you have a function that is called when the promise is resolved. Promises are nice because they can be passed around and they allow you to control the flow of your asynchronous code without blocking.
Here's a boilerplate I was just working on for myself for similar setup where data is an object that needs to be split into more than one scope item. Issue you weren't grasping is storing the data within the service, not just using service to retrieve data. Then the data items are available across multple controllers and directives by injecting service
app.run(function(MyDataService){
MyDataService.init();
})
app.factory('MyDataService',function($http,$q){
var myData = {
deferreds:{},
mainDataSchema:['count','items'],
init:function(){
angular.forEach(myData.mainDataSchema,function(val,idx){
/* create deferreds and promises*/
myData.deferreds[val]=$q.defer();
myData[val]= myData.deferreds[val].promise
});
/* load the data*/
myData.loadData();
},
loadData:function(){
$http.get('data.json').success(function(response){
/* create resolves for promises*/
angular.forEach(myData.mainDataSchema,function(val,idx){
myData.deferreds[val].resolve(response[val]);
});
/* TODO -create rejects*/
})
}
}
return myData;
})
app.controller('Ctrl_1', function($scope,MyDataService ) {
$scope.count = MyDataService.count;
$scope.items =MyDataService.items;
});
app.controller('Ctrl_2', function($scope,MyDataService ) {
$scope.items =MyDataService.items;
$scope.count = MyDataService.count;
});
