I'm trying to make an app that pulls our data from our existing website. As we have no known API, I have decided to use ajax with whateverorigin.org to pull the full HTML from our site, and parse it with jQuery from there.
Unfortunately, much of the data I need lies far below any unique ID's. With $(data.contents).find("#unique").text() I am able to retrieve data of the type:
<div id="unique">
<div>
Text I want
</div>
</div>
However, as the nesting gets deeper, like:
<span id="unique2">
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
Text I want
that snippet always returns "".
I have tried chaining the levels together with .join, but that doesn't work either.
Code in context here, around line 40-50. The site I'm trying to access is wmbr.org. The id that works is #now_on_the_air, one of the id's that doesn't is #recent_plays. The log is empty.

I am using oi-select library, i have customized it according to my project need and i have written directive for it. The problem is its taking too much of time say 10secs to load around 3k array data. I want to minimize the time for it. Here I have created plunker for this.
I have directive which loads all factory data and provides it to oi-select, in my code here is html
<small><b>select {{MPhardwaresListDropDown.length}}</b></small>
<div style="padding-top: 7px">
<div title="" class="selected-multiple-items">
{{MPselectedHardwares.length}} selected
</div>
<grid-multi-select id="hardwareId" clean="clean" optionlist="MPhardwaresListDropDown" colval="name"></grid-multi-select>
</div>
HTML code in directive looks like
<div>
<div ng-repeat="optionVal in tempOptionList | orderBy : ['-originalcheck','+label']" prevent-close>
<div ng-if="optionVal.label">
<label class="checkbox" ng-if="!typeFilterOptions || (optionVal.label.toString().toLowerCase().indexOf(typeFilterOptions.toLowerCase()) > -1)">
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox1" ng-checked="optionVal.check" ng-model="optionVal.check"/>
<span class="checkbox__input"></span>
<span class="checkbox__label" style="color:#A9A9A9;">{{optionVal.label}}</span>
</label>
</div>
<div ng-if="!optionVal.label">
<label class="checkbox" ng-if="!typeFilterOptions || (optionVal.val.toString().toLowerCase().indexOf(typeFilterOptions.toLowerCase()) > -1)">
<input type="checkbox" name="checkbox1" ng-checked="optionVal.check" ng-model="optionVal.check" ng-change="checking(typeFilterOptions)"/>
<span class="checkbox__input"></span>
<span class="checkbox__label" style="color:#A9A9A9;">{{optionVal.val}}</span>
</label>
</div>
</div>
angular code is too big to mention in this question please refer plunker, but this is how it loops
scope.selection = scope.selectionorg;
scope.checkedall=scope.checkedallorg;
scope.OptionList=parentScope[scope.parentListName].sort();
scope.tempOptionList=[];
var i=0;
for(i=0;i<scope.OptionList.length;i++) {
scope.tempOptionList[i] = {val: scope.OptionList[i], check: false, originalcheck: false};
}
if(scope.optionListSelectedList.length>0) {
angular.forEach(scope.optionListSelectedList, function(obj){
angular.forEach(scope.tempOptionList, function(obj1){
if(obj===obj1.val){
obj1.check=true;
obj1.originalcheck=true;
}
});
});
}
else{
scope.checkedall=false;
}
};
I want something like which will load partial data on scroll it loads more data, any help will be appreciated. Thank you so much.
EDIT
Now i have edited my plunker with limitTo in ng-repeat, for that i have written new directive which will trigger addmoreitems function when scroll will reach bottom. updatedPlunker
Now problem is when i am typing and searching something its searching in only available records with respect to limitTo its not searching in all data, say now the limitTo is 50 then search is happening only in 50 records not in 3k records.
Correct way of doing this kind of requirement is to do with pagination, since you are loading data from the server side, you should make your api to support pagination.
It should accept three parameters such as number of items, start, limit and you should initially get the number of items and repeat it until you get the whole result set.
There should be another request to get the total number of items. By doing this you can retrieve all the elements at once loaded in the client side. Until that you should have a loading indicator, or you could load this data when the login process/application starts.
limitTo will not be able to help with the search , because you are limiting the results.
The problem is not the array, the browser can easly handle that, the problem is that you're rendering all the 3k DOM elements, that's really heavy work even for an actual machine, also since there is bindings in each dom element {{}} they're being watching by AngularJs, I got the same problem and solved using Virtual Repeat from AngularJS Material, what this does is it doesn't render the whole 3k DOM elements generated by the ng-repeat, instead it just renders the ones that are visible, also I've found another library if you don't want to use Angular Material, this seems to work the same way: Angular VS-Repeat
You may try the limitTo filter in ng-repeat in angularjs which takes the additional argument to start the iteration.
https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/filter/limitTo
On scroll, you can then change that argument based on the number of items pending or left for rendering or the number of items already rendered. This should help you in approach of selective loading of data on scroll.
I´m currently trying to create some kind of dynamic template, which fetches data and meta information from two separate services. The final result should be an table showing the data with the correct labels. My plan was to create HTML-templates with different basic designs like a table with 3,4 or 5 columns. Then a matching controller should fetch the meta data from a service which should return an array with the id of an attribute and its name which should be displayed in the table. So far so good but now comes the tricky part:
The second service fetches the matching data for the template and the id of the meta data and the id of the actual data matches, so that you can match them correctly.
Here is the Code on plunkr: Link
The Main problem is the following piece of code:
<tr ng-repeat="person in persons">
<td>{{person.name}}</td>
<td>{{person.age}}</td>
<td>{{person.postal}}</td>
</tr>
In between the <td>-tags the data doesn´t get fetched dynamic but static. I don´t want to explicitly say how my attributes are called but use the fetched data from the meta service to know how my attributes are called.
So in the end the template should get the names of the attributes as well as the matching data. Do you guys have any good idea for me how to solve this?
EDIT
To make things a little more clear:
At the moment the data between the <td> tags is fetched static because the term {{person.name}} stands there hard coded. Let´s assume that the structure of the data chenges and there will be a country-attribute instead of the postal one. The template which stays the same still tries to get data from person.postal and not from person.country. So undefined or even an error would be the consequence.
To prevent this the names of the attributes should get fetched from a meta service and build in the HTML page.
The workflow should look somehow like this:
fetch the metadata --> get the names of the attributes
Set the names of the attributes inside the 'HTML' to call the correct attribute
fetch the actual data with the attributes defined before
Create the table
http://jsfiddle.net/Lt024p9h/1/
<div ng-controller="MyCtrl">
<table border="1">
<tr ng-repeat="person in persons">
<td ng-repeat="attr in query.attribs">
{{person[attr.id]}}
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
Right so what is going on here?
So going by your fiddle, what we do if get the attributes you wish to display then using the object as an associative array.
This does require that the attr.id and the properties match up.
I am trying to create a page template that uses section headers and subsequent content that is being dynamically pulled in based on a separate database. Currently I have the page set up to look something like this:
<tr>
<td>
<h3>Product Applications</h3>
{tag_applications}<br />
</td>
</tr>
Where the Product Applications is a formatted header on the page and the {tag_applications} is link through the CMS that is pulling in content from a field defined elsewhere. I am trying to figure out how to hide the entire cell (or div if I need to) with either CSS or a script when the {tag_applications} is empty or blank. I tried to use the 'empty' tag in CSS on the cell and setting the display to hidden, but of course, the cell is not actually empty because of the header.
What is the best way that I can accomplish this without creating separate pages for each item?
Thanks!
Try wrapping your content area in a div, like this:
<tr>
<td>
<h3>Product Applications</h3>
<div class="contentSection">{tag_applications}</div>
</td>
</tr>
Then your script can check if the div is empty or not. (uses jQuery)
$(function()
{
$(".contentSection").each(function(idx, ele)
{
if($(ele).html() == "")
$(ele).parent().hide();
});
});
My apologies if I made any syntax errors...
I have a table that I'm including on different pages, this works great except I can't get to the values in the included table. If I use this on a page:
<div data-ng-include="'/app/views/tasks/tasksTable.html'" />
the table shows up but I can't display the value in the file tasksTable.html, this shows undefinded:
<td>
<i class="icon-ok-sign" ng-click="addTask()"></i>
</td>
<td>
<input ng-model="task" />
</td>
From the controller:
$scope.addTask = function (data) {
console.log($scope.task);
};
If I put the table in my file instead of using ng-include to display the table I can display whatever I type into the input tied to ng-model="task".
The reason why you can't access the task is due to two reasons. Firstly, is because ng-include creates a new scope for the template that is a child of the parent controller scope. The second reason is that you are attaching your string model directly to the scope and not creating an object that contains your model. I created a working CodePen example to demonstrate how to solve your problem.
You should read up on prototypical inheritance and how it affects on scopes.
I hope this helps.
I have a bunch of DOM like
<div>
<div class="stuff"/>
<div class="stuff"/>
<div class="stuff"/>
</div>
and I want to replace it with a new set of stuff
<div>
<div class="stuff"/>
<p class="stuff"/>
<ul class="stuff"/>
<a class="stuff"/>
</div>
Which will be fetched via Ajax. My question is: what is the best way to do this?
$.replaceWith doesn't quite do what I want, because I then end up with multiple copies of the new stuff.
I can guarantee that all the stuff will be in one contiguous block, and so presumably I could put in some placeholder after the last element (or before the first element) of the old stuff, remove the old stuff, and replace the placeholder with the new stuff.
However, this seems rather roundabout and inelegant. Is there any clever way of, removing all the old stuff and putting in a single copy of the new stuff, all at one go?
EDIT: I would also like to do this without using any container divs. Using container divs would work in the above case, but would fail in some cases, like when the stuff is inside a <table>:
<table>
<head/>
<body>
<tr/>
<tr class="stuff"/>
<tr class="stuff"/>
<tr class="stuff"/>
<tr/>
</body>
</table>
If i want to replace the rows labelled stuff with another set of rows, possibly more, possibly fewer, there is no way I can nicely put them in a container thingy without breaking the HTML, since the <body> can only contain <tr>s (IIRC).
$('#outerdiv').empty().append(newContent);
Unlike .html(), this will work regardless of whether newContent is an HTML string, or an existing DOM structure.
If there are multiple elements to be replaced but where you need to retain their siblings, you can do this:
$('.stuff').first().before(newContent).end().remove();
i.e. take the first .stuff element, add the new content before it, and then remove all the .stuff elements.
Yes: $('#tagetDiv').html(newContent)
One way to do it would be with wrapAll:
$('.stuff').wrapAll('<div/>').parent().replaceWith('<div class="stuff"/>');
I'm not sure if that passes the "elegant" test, but it does work regardless of whether there is any other content in the containing element.
With that said, though, this seems to be a very complicated solution to a simple problem. The simple solution would be to wrap your elements in a containing element; this shouldn't be a problem if, as you say, you can guarantee that they will always be together.
