AngularJS function result as input value in mandrill EmailController - angularjs

I started a new question because although the last question was answered successfully it has brought about new issues that i cant seem to fix..
i have two factory functions in OrderFunctions
total(menu)
and
totalOrder()
in the app these functions work great however when i try to submit the order form using mandrill in my EmailController. the calculated results are not sent. apart from this it has also seemed to effect the showAlert() function on successful send.
anyway as previously requested here is a plunkr
so the EmailController is in controller.js and you can see the html markup in the order.html
thanks for looking

AngularFire - Get a firebaseObject for each item in a firebaseArray ng-repeat

I have an ng-repeat which is connected to a firebaseArray which is an index of a user's doc Ids.
I want to display a list of their docs with additional info for each one, e.g. it's title and description.
My firebase structure is:
+users
- userId1
-theirDocs
-docId1: true
-docId2: true
+docs
-docId1
- tile
- description
- url
-docId2
- etc etc
I've tried everything and still can't get this to work, it seems a pretty common use case. I've tried using a function that calls a firebaseObject each time. I've tried using a separate controller. I've tried a directive, I've even tried using firebase.utils library (I think out of date now).
Can anyone recommend the best way to do this using AngularFire? Thanks in advance!
It would be better to see a code snippet as to fully understand what you've tried first of all, as it's difficult to determine where the issues lie. That being said, as long as your rules are not preventing this, you may need to wait for the data to download using $loaded function beforehand.
EXAMPLE
This example is clearly available by following this link, yet here is an example for further clarity:
var yourFirebaseReference = firebase.database().ref("REPLACE WITH YOUR FIREBASE BRANCH HERE");
var data = $firebaseArray(yourFirebaseReference);
data.$loaded().then(function(x) {
console.log(data) // Example, you can do what you want with your 'data' now as the data has loaded
x === data; // true
}).catch(function(error) {
console.log("Error:", error);
});

Non-angular page opened with click - angular not defined using ignoreSynchronization or waiting for Angular without

After a lot of research, and tinkering, I can't seem to actually get my Protractor test to do anything else other than have an Angular related error, even though I am using browser to avoid Angular being detected at all.
The test involves an Angular app, opening a dropdown in it, and clicking on the link for the console; the console opens a non-Angular admin page in a separate window.
So based on the many informative SO posts I found, I first used this...
browser.driver.getAllWindowHandles().then(function(handles) {
browser.driver.switchTo().window(handles[1]).then(function() {
//expect for new window here
});
});
Which appeared to work, as I could get to the window through repl pretty easily.
The issue is when either of the following were added...
browser.driver.getAllWindowHandles().then(function(handles) {
browser.driver.switchTo().window(handles[1]).then(function() {
expect(browser.getLocationAbsUrl()).toContain('/console/login.jsp');
expect(browser.driver.findElement(By.css('th.login')).getText()).toEqual('Login');
});
});
One expect check the URL and the other checks for the header element on the page, which is a table header. When I run this, I get the following:
Error while waiting for Protractor to sync with the page: "angular could not be found on the window"
When I decide to use browser.ignoreSynchronization = true, both in the function, or in a beforeEach, with or without a following afterEach setting it to false, I get the following:
JavascriptError: angular is not defined
I can't seem to get any "useful" errors to help me debug it, and trying it in repl does not help, as I get the same issue.
To be comprehensive, trying my URL expect without getting the second window will give me the root, and the other will fail.
Just doing one or the other will cause the same problem.
Changing to regular syntax (element(by.css...)) does not change things.
So much for my first question...
It appears that my use of browser.getLocationAbsUrl() is meant to be used for an Angular page, and was causing my issue...
Essentially, even though I believed I was using pure Webdriver calls, that call still required Angular on the page to work...
As stated in another post, the use of browser.driver.getCurrentUrl() is a non-Angular call using Webdriver, and fixed the problem. Thus, the final code is the following...
browser.sleep(1000); //to wait for the page to load
browser.driver.getAllWindowHandles().then(function(handles) {
browser.driver.switchTo().window(handles[1]).then(function() {
expect(browser.driver.getCurrentUrl()).toContain('/console/login.jsp');
expect(browser.driver.findElement(By.css('th.login')).getText()).toEqual('Login');
});
});
This works without setting ignoreSynchronization, BTW.
I realized it would probably be something relatively simple to fix it, just didn't expect I'd get it that quickly (I intended on submitting the question last night, but posted it this morning instead).
In any case, I hope this will at least be a good reference for anyone else facing the same issue.
Seems like getLocationAbsUrl is angular abs url.
Try using the native driver getCurrentUrl instead.
-- expect(browser.getLocationAbsUrl()).toContain('/console/login.jsp');
++ expect(browser.driver.getCurrentUrl() ...

angular event doesn't update page

I'm converting a page in a mvc application with a lot of inline jquery javascript to angular using typescript.
The first calls works fine but I have a problem: based on a selection in a dropdown, the event updates several controls in the view, make a few ajax calls and finally update the view with the data from the calls.
Seems the conversion is working fine, but at the end of the call the page isn't updated.
I tried to remove all the old jquery code to avoid problems.
batarang and java console reports no errors.
the final ajax call is done and the result shown in a debug.
All seems to work fine, but the page isn't updated.
How can I find the problem?
thanks
Without seeing any code, it's difficult to answer but if you bind an event to an element and want to update something in the callback, you will have to use $apply
scope.$apply(function () {
// your code
});
$apply will trigger a $digest cycle, and should be used when you want to update something while being outside angular's context.
Most likely you are not handling your asynchronous calls correctly. It's impossible to tell from your question but it is a very common mistake with symptoms as you describe.
Make sure you are updating your model within the .then() method of a promise returned from an $http request. For example
someFnDoingHttpRequest().then(function(data){
// updated the model with the data
})
Also (another common mistake) make sure someFnDoingHttpRequest() returns a promise.
If you want to "find the problem" then you can use the following option.
Go to Internet Explorer (10 or 11).
Select "Internet Options" from the settings menu.
Go to the "Advanced" tab (the last tab)
Settings are listed and select "Display a notification about every script error"
Deselect the "Disable Script debugging (Internet Explorer)" and "Disable script debugging (Other)"
Run the program again, you will get notification about the real issue that happens while displaying actual result.

Using Angular-Bacons $scope.$watchAsProperty(property) in Angulars ng-repeat

I´m trying to find a good way to use Baconjs together with Angularjs in conjuctions with Angular-Bacon.
Now digesting from Bacon to the Angular scope works perfectly fine but I´m stumbling with Angular-Bacons $scope.$watchAsProperty(property) within Angulars ng-repeat:
Let´s say I have the Angular scope $scope.databaserecords and render it out with:
<div ng-repeat="record in databaserecords">
Each of the records has a record.checked property and I want to handle all checked records together in one Bacon stream, for example to add a certain tag to all records at once.
At this point using $scope.$watchAsProperty(databaserecords) I get no Bacon events when checking or unchecking certain records, so how could I accomplish to receive these changes back in Bacon?
I might also mention, that using $scope.$watchAsProperty(property) out of ng-repeat, for example for input fields, works well without any problem.
Thanks for your help! :)
If I've understood correctly, your actual databaserecords remains the same throughout the scope, so you'll need to invoke $watchAsProperty with the objectEquality argument set to true:
$scope.$watchAsProperty("databaserecords", true)
By default angular opts to compare objects with a simple object equality check. In your case the list object remains the same, so a deeper check is necessary. This is already implemented in angular-bacon but it seems I've omitted it from the docs.

How to return/edit REST resource with AngularJS & Restangular

Using Restangular for AngularJS, keep getting an object object from Mongolab.
I'm sure it has to do with Promise but not sure how to use/implement this coming from old Java OO experience.
(Side note, would something like Eloquent Javascript, some book or resource help me understand the 'new' Javascript style?)
The small web app is for Disabled Students and is to input/edit the students, update the time they spend after school and then output reports for their parents/caregivers every week.
Here's the code that returns undefined when popping up a new form (AngularJS Boostrap UI modal)
I personally think Restangular & the documentation is a great addition so hope it doesn't dissuade others - this is just me not knowing enough.
Thanks in advance
app.js
...
$scope.editStudent = function(id) {
$scope.myStudent = Restangular.one("students", id);
console.log($scope.myStudent);
}
I'm the creator of Restangular :). Maybe I can help you a bit with this.
So, first thing you need to do is to configure the baseUrl for Restangular. For MongoLab you usually do have a base url that's similar to all of them.
Once you got that working, you need to check the format of the response:
If your response is wrapped in another object or envelope, you need to "unwrap" it in your responseExtractor. For that, check out https://github.com/mgonto/restangular#my-response-is-actually-wrapped-with-some-metadata-how-do-i-get-the-data-in-that-case
Once you got that OK, you can start doing requests.
All Restangular requests return a Promise. Angular's templates are able to handle Promises and they're able to show the promise result in the HTML. So, if the promise isn't yet solved, it shows nothing and once you get the data from the server, it's shown in the template.
If what you want to do is to edit the object you get and then do a put, in that case, you cannot work with the promise, as you need to change values.
If that's the case, you need to assign the result of the promise to a $scope variable.
For that, you can do:
Restangular.one("students", id).get().then(function(serverStudent) {
$scope.myStudent = serverStudent;
});
This way, once the server returns the student, you'll assign this to the scope variable.
Hope this helps! Otherwise comment me here!
Also check out this example with MongoLab maybe it'll help you :)
