AngularJS custom ng-repeat with recursion not working - angularjs

The issue is best illustrated in the plunker - http://plnkr.co/edit/9DYQ3rlmiMK9bdtjyYOA.
Basically, I am trying to create a meta form rendering engine using angular with the help of directives that handle interpretation of data runtime and render the fields accordingly.
Please let me know if you have any ideas why the dyn-ng-repeat directive is not rendering the three URL fields under the user object as expected in the code below -
<div dyn-ng-repeat="item in {{field.model}}">
<div ng-repeat="field in field.children" ng-include src="'field.html'">/div>
</div>
Thanks.
EDIT:
Hi guys, I have created a full Plunker here - http://plnkr.co/edit/cFreJZbluy3w4R9PZUCD?p=preview that should have all the code necessary but not working.
Basically, there is a hierarchy of objects. Social Networks have URLS and a list of Friends. The code is supposed to display three social networks and each should have two friends listed under them. The button 'Add Network' should add another social network to the list and the button 'Remove Network' should remove the respective network associated with it along with all its children. Similarly, 'Add Friend' should add a new friend object under that Social Network and 'Remove Friend' should remove the respective friend from under that network.
It's a bit complex, but if you look at it for a couple of minutes, you'll get the idea of what I'm trying to do here. It's dynamic DOM based on the data elements that are bound two way.
Thanks.

AFC Repeater and wp-rest api in React.js

Need to render ACF repeater in react. I am able to display ACF text Fields but not repeater fields. Need to find out if anyone has an example of how to map through a repeater field.
Repeater field group Is called Skills.
Im also new in this stuff, but I will try to help you.
So, the first thing that you need is to download and install ACF to REST API plugin so you can use ACF with Wordpress API. I assume, that you already have it, because as you said before - you can display text fields.
Once you can send data through Wordpress API, you need to preview of JSON sent by Wordpress (in this case), so you can display necessary data. Mine is called React Developer Tools and I installed it as Chrome extension.
Link to Chrome store
It should look like this:
As you can see, my component is called Home.js, yours may be called differently. Chose component that is fetching all the data that you need.
Now, you just need to use your repeater. It would be much easier if you showed us your code. I don't really know what kind of data you are calling through api, so I guess these are pages.
{ pages[0].acf.technologie_lista.map ( (field, index) => (
<div key={index} className="single-field">
{ field.nazwa_technologii }
</div>
) ) }
Let's break it down.
1 - My project contains two pages. I have chosen the first one, because only this one has needed ACF fields. technologie_lista is acf field name.
2 - You need to use map function to list all posts. You need to assign key to each element.
nazwa_technologii is just a repeater sub field name.
And that's all. I might make some rookie mistakes, but it work's for me. I hope that i helped. Cheers!

use angularjs ui-router to implement a summary page

My web-app is written by AngularJs+ ui-router.
The web-app contains many forms (the number of forms are vary, depending on the application the user is applying). Each form has a ui-route state, so our users can go to each form and fill the information.
Before users submit the application we would like to implement a "summary/review" state(page) that contains all the forms the user filled, so users can review (and print) all the information from one page. Is there any way I can use the same form template (templateUrl) for the summary page?
I was thinking to use ng-include and programmatically(ng-repeat) list out all the selected forms, but it seems doesn't work.
PS: my form template might use different controller..
OK, I figured this out.
For ng-include: we need to use
<ng-include src="'formPath'"></ng-include>
For putting the ng-include in a repeater:
<div ng-repeat="f in vm.thisApp.RequiredForms">
<ng-include src="f.FormPath"></ng-include>
</div>
I hope this helps anyone who needs the answer.

How do I pass data with my MEAN app? From a page of products to a new page with details about the specific product that the user clicked on?

I am a newbie at the MEAN stack. I have a full app working and have searched extensively on how to solve the following problem but I'm realizing that I don't know how to "ask" the question to be sent to the proper resource.
I have a marketplace. In the dashboard, a user can enter details about their product (a boat) and it is sent to the DB. In my marketplace, I'm retrieving all of the boats from the DB and theyre styled and listed on the page.
I want a user to click on one of the tiles components that I have created with an ng-list (boat) and be sent to a new page with a fully-expanded view of that specific boat. (larger pictures, expanded details, etc.) basically all the details about the product that won't fit in the minimalistic tile component in the marketplace.
How do I pass data about that specific boat that the user clicks on and be sent to a new page? Is this an ng-directive? an API/route thing?
I just am unsure how to reference the specific boat from the list i'm retrieving and have the user sent to a new details page. Any direction or resources that will teach me to solve this problem?
In general, use ng-repeat to display a list of products and ng-click to handle clicks.
<a ng-repeat="product in productList" ng-click="goto($index)">
<h2> {{product.title}}</h2>
<img ng-src="{{product.picture}}">
<p>{{product.description}}</p>
</a>
JS
$scope.goto = function(index) {
$location(productList[index].location);
});
Use a router such as ngRoute or ui-route to intercept the new location and load the appropriate template and controller.

Why is my Angular JS ng-show empty list div shows up for a split second while API is being called?

<div ng-show="!activities.length">No items in feed</div>
I use the above code to show a message when a user has no items in their feed. On that same page I have a radio button to show different types of feeds (e.g. just yours, or all your friends, etc.). When the user selects a different option, it makes a post back to my API which takes a second, but while the api is grabbing the data the empty list message displays for a second.
Is there an easy way to resolve this?
Use the ngCloack directive for this:
http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng.directive:ngCloak
The other option is to use ng-bind as many people recommend it over ng-cloak:
http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng.directive:ngBind
I personally have had issues where even using ng-cloak there is a slight markup flash.

Meteor - how to link html element to database entry on click event?

I'm trying to figure out how to link an html picture element back to the database entry that was originally used to generate the picture link.
I am using Meteor:
- I have a database that contains photosets data from Flickr API
- In the HTML, I have a handlebar "each" script that iterates through each photoset in the database and then uses this info to generate the html for the photoset cover picture links.
- When the html renders, the photoset cover pictures are downloaded from Flickr and displayed to the screen.
I would like to be able to click on the photoset cover picture and then automatically generate the links to the pictures in the photoset. But I don't understand how to dynamically link the html picture elements back to their respective database entries that were originally used for generating the picture links. I need to be able to find the original database entries so that I can load the info needed for generation of subsequent links.
As a newb to all of this I'm not really sure where to start looking or what to try. I've wondered about creating an object with custom key pairs to 'memorise' the identity of each photoset picture. Is this the way to go, or is there an easier way that I am overlooking?
Thanks.
Say you have your pictures being put out this way:
Template.mytemplate.helpers({
picture:function() {
return pictures.find()
}
});
You can also do this instead, which is pretty much the same thing:
Template.mytemplate.picture = function() {
return pictures.find();
}
With the html
<template name="pictures">
{{#each picture}}
<img src="{{src}}" class="pictureselector"/>
{{/each}}
</template>
You can use events which can get data from that particular picture document/record
Template.mytemplate.events({
'click .pictureselector':function(event,template) {
console.log(this._id); //Should give you the `_id` of the picture that was clicked
}
});
this is the data context of the element that was clicked & generate the link you want using the data inside this.
Be careful if you use something with a callback inside the click like Meteor.call, you will have to relay the message down via var self = this otherwise the context of this would become the one of Meteor.call
