How do I pre-cache url content in ionic 1/angular 1?

I am pretty new to ionic and working on an app where you load a bunch of categories ,followed by a list of items in the category and when you click on the item in the category a documenturl loads containing the content which is basically an image. Currently, everything loads fine, but I would like to preload the content the moment my category is visible, so even if I go offline I should be able to click on any of the items within the category list and load the respective document. I looked online but I couldn't find anything except localstorage which caches data after you have visited it and not before. Is there a way I can pre-load or pre-cache content ?
Here's my code for controllers:
angular.module('starter.controllers', ["utility.services"])
.directive("bindCompiledHtml", ["$compile", "zoomPerOrientation", function($compile, zoomPerOrientation) {
return {
template: '<div></div>',
scope: {
rawHtml: '=bindCompiledHtml'
},
link: function(scope, elem, attrs) {
scope.$watch('rawHtml', function(value) {
if (!value) return;
var newElem = $compile(value)(scope.$parent);
elem.contents().remove();
zoomPerOrientation.zoomTo('docScroll');
elem.append(newElem);
elem.bind("click", function(e) {
e.stopPropagation();
e.preventDefault();
if (e.target.tagName === 'A') {
window.open(encodeURI(e.target.href), '_system', "presentationstyle=fullscreen,closebuttoncaption=close,location=no,transitionstyle=fliphorizontal");
return false;
} else if (e.target.parentNode.tagName === 'A') {
window.open(encodeURI(e.target.parentNode.href), '_system', "presentationstyle=fullscreen,closebuttoncaption=close,location=no,transitionstyle=fliphorizontal");

Please let me know if you need any other info.Also, currently I do support local cache to cache categories locally, but not pre-cached. Is there a way to retrieve these documents beforehand? Please check my loaddocuments section which deals with loading document url's once you click on the specific item.

Please refer this I've already explained everything with programming approach.

Angular JS factory function

I want the use set method of factory but both of return default how can I fix that problem?
app.factory("DualListShareFactory", function(){
var selectedArray=[];
return{
getSelectedArray: function () {
return selectedArray;
},
setSelectedArray: function (array){
selectedArray=array;
}
}
});
Using ng-dual List from https://github.com/tushariscoolster/ng-duallist
I'm tkining it not working: DualListShareFactory.setSelectedArray(vm.rightValue);
I use other method for and push but I am received same error .
app.controller("duallist2", function($scope,DualListShareFactory){
var vm=this;
vm.property='duallist2';
activate();
function activate() {
vm.leftValue = [];
vm.rightValue = [];
vm.addValue = [];
vm.removeValue = [];
function loadMoreLeft() {
for (var i = 0; i < $scope.incomingItem.length; i++) {
vm.leftValue.push({
'name': $scope.incomingItem[i]
});
}
};
function loadMoreRight() {
}
vm.options = {
leftContainerScrollEnd: function () {
},
rightContainerScrollEnd: function () {
},
leftContainerSearch: function (text) {
console.log(text)
vm.leftValue = $filter('filter')(leftValue, {
'name': text
})
},
rightContainerSearch: function (text) {
vm.rightValue = $filter('filter')(rightValue, {
'name': text
})
},
leftContainerLabel: 'Gelen Parçalar',
rightContainerLabel: 'Seçilen Parçalar',
onMoveRight: function () {
console.log('right');
console.log(vm.addValue);
},
onMoveLeft: function () {
console.log('left');
console.log(vm.removeValue);
}
};
loadMoreLeft();
var leftValue = angular.copy(vm.leftValue);
var rightValue = angular.copy(vm.rightValue);
} console.log(vm.rightValue);
DualListShareFactory.setSelectedArray(vm.rightValue);
});

I am not this will work but try "this",
app.factory("DualListShareFactory", function(){
this.selectedArray=[];
return{
getSelectedArray: function () {
return this.selectedArray;
},
setSelectedArray: function (array){
this.selectedArray = array;
}
}
});

var app = angular.module("testapp", ["ng-duallist"]);
app.factory("DualListShareFactory", function(){
var selectedArray = [];
return{
getSelectedArray: function () {
return selectedArray
},
setSelectedArray: function (array){
angular.copy(array, selectedArray);
}
}
});
using for this add the other code block before ending function.
onMoveRight: function () {
DualListShareFactory.setSelectedArray(vm.rightValue);
},
onMoveLeft: function () {
DualListShareFactory.setSelectedArray(vm.rightValue);
}
};
loadMoreLeft();
var leftValue = angular.copy(vm.leftValue);
var rightValue = angular.copy(vm.rightValue);

Angular/Jasmin : can't get values passed while testing

I wrote a page that allows me to change my password. The code works and it does everything I want it to do, so I started writing tests. Since I'm not as experienced in Angular testing this had proven to be quite difficult and I can't get passed this error:
TypeError: 'undefined' is not an object (evaluating 'plan.apply')
at /Users/denniegrondelaers/asadventure/myproject-web/src/users/controllers/userPasswordController.js:9
at /Users/denniegrondelaers/asadventure/myproject-web/test/unitTests/specs/users/controllers/userPasswordControllerSpec.js:98
The controller:
userPasswordController.js
users.controllers.controller('userPasswordController',
['$scope', 'Session', '$state', 'UserService', 'languages',
function ($scope, Session, $state, UserService, languages) {
$scope.languages = languages;
$scope.password = "";
$scope.notEqual = false;
$scope.isSuccessful = false;
$scope.changePassword = function() {
var pw = {
userId: Session.getCurrentSession().userId,
oldPassword: encrypt($scope.password.oldPassword),
newPassword: encrypt($scope.password.newPassword),
newPasswordRepeat: encrypt($scope.password.newPasswordRepeat)
};
if (pw.newPassword === pw.newPasswordRepeat) {
$scope.notEqual = false;
UserService.setNewPassword(pw).then(function(res) {
$scope.formErrors = undefined;
$scope.isSuccessful = true;
}, function (error) {
$scope.formErrors = error.data;
}
);
} else {
$scope.notEqual = true;
}
};
var encrypt = function (password) {
var encrypted = CryptoJS.md5(password);
return encrypted.toString(CryptoJS.enc.Hex);
};
}
]
);
The service:
userService.js
userService.setNewPassword = function (password) {
return $http
.put(EnvironmentConfig.endpointUrl +
"/password/change", password)
};
The test:
userPasswordControllerSpec.js
describe('Users', function () {
describe('Controllers', function () {
fdescribe('userPasswordController', function () {
var $scope,
controller,
$q,
willResolve,
mockSession,
mockState,
mockUserService,
mockLanguages;
beforeEach(function () {
module('mysite.users.controllers');
module(function ($provide) {
$provide.value('translateFilter', function (a) {
return a;
});
$provide.value('$state', function (a) {
return a;
});
});
mockSession = {
getCurrentSession: function () {
return {userId: 4};
}
};
mockState = {
params: {
id: 1
},
go: function () {
}
};
mockLanguages = {
getLanguages : function () {
var deferred = $q.defer();
deferred.resolve({
data: [{}]
});
return deferred.promise;
}
};
mockUserService = {
setNewPassword : function () {
var deferred = $q.defer();
if (willResolve) {
deferred.resolve({
data: [{}]
});
}
return deferred.promise;
}
};
inject(function (_$q_, $controller, $rootScope) {
controller = $controller;
$q = _$q_;
$scope = $rootScope.$new();
});
controller('userPasswordController', {$scope: $scope, Session: mockSession, $state: mockState,
UserService: mockUserService, languages: mockLanguages
});
willResolve = true;
});
it('should change password', function () {
spyOn(mockUserService, 'setNewPassword').and.callThrough();
spyOn(mockState, 'go').and.callThrough();
spyOn(mockSession, 'getCurrentSession').and.callFake();
expect(mockUserService.setNewPassword).not.toHaveBeenCalled();
expect($scope.isSubmitable()).not.toBeTruthy();
$scope.compareStoreSelection = function () {
return true;
};
$scope.password = {
oldPassword: "123456",
newPassword: "password",
newPasswordRepeat: "password"
};
expect($scope.isSubmitable()).toBeTruthy();
>>> $scope.changePassword(); <<< LOCATION OF ERROR, line 98
expect(mockUserService.setNewPassword).toHaveBeenCalled();
$scope.$apply();
});
});
});
});
I've marked the line that gives the code in the test.
Anybody any idea how to fix this? A colleague suggested altering my controller code, but I'd like to keep it as it is, since it seems logical that this code shouldn't be altered for testing to work, right?
Solution
Yarons' suggestion to change the mockSession.getCurrentSession.callFake to mockSession.getCurrentSession.callThrough fixed it!

How To Run Controller Functionality Again Using Different Parameters From View ng-model

I have a controller that works fine on initial load. It calls user [0] data and everything processes fine. When I change dropdown, I want to call the same function, but I cannot get the entire controller to reload. It starts from the function call and leaves undefined in places where it pulls correct information (linkToken, etc) on initial load. Is there a way I can get it to reload all data from the controller instead of just from the function?
After calling the testchange() from the view to pass in the new data, I get :
TypeError: Cannot read property 'locations' of undefined
at h.$scope.updateLocations (refillController.js:261)
at refillController.js:73
But, when I call the original getRefills() that is ran on the initial page load I get the same error. How can I define these so the load after the onchange(0)?
angular.module('FinalApp.Controllers').controller('refillController', function ($rootScope, $scope, $location, $modal, userService, dependentsService, accountService, sharedCollections, configurationService, refillsService) {

Check if your refillsService returns correct data, it could be that $scope.refills remains empty array.

AngularJS - ng-bind not updating

I have a controller which has a function to get some alerts from an API and update a count on the front-end of my site which is bound to the alert.
Unfortunately the ng-bind attribute I'm using doesn't seem to be updating the count live, even though a simple console.log() is telling me that the actual alert count is being updated in the controller.
Front-end
<div class="modeSelector modeSelector_oneUp" data-ng-controller="MyLivestockController as vm">
<a class="modeSelector-mode" data-ui-sref="my-livestock">
<div class="modeSelector-type">Alerts</div>
<img class="modeSelector-icon" src="/inc/img/_icons/envelope-black.svg" onerror="this.src=envelope-black.png" />
<span data-ng-bind="vm.alertCount"></span>
</a>
</div>
Controller
(function() {
'use strict';
function MyLivestockController(userService) {
var vm = this;
vm.myLivestockNotification = {
isLoading: true,
hasError: false
};
vm.alertsNotification = {
isLoading: true,
hasError: false,
hasData: false
};
vm.deleteAlert = function(id) {
vm.currentAlert = void 0;
vm.alertsNotification.isLoading = true;
userService.deleteAlert(vm.user.id, id).then(function() {
// Remove the alert from our Array
vm.alerts = vm.alerts.filter(function(alert) {
return alert.id !== id;
});
// Refresh the alert count for the user
vm.getAlerts(vm.user.id);
vm.alertsNotification.isLoading = false;
vm.alertsNotification.hasError = false;
}, function() {
vm.alertsNotification.hasError = true;
});
};
vm.getAlerts = function(id) {
userService.getAlerts(id).then(function(alertData) {
vm.alertCount = alertData.length;
if (vm.alertCount > 0) {
vm.alertsNotification.hasData = true;
} else {
vm.alertsNotification.hasData = false;
}
vm.alerts = alertData;
vm.alertsNotification.isLoading = false;
vm.alertsNotification.hasError = false;
}, function() {
vm.alertsNotification.hasError = true;
});
};
// Init
(function() {
userService.getCurrentUser().then(function(data) {
vm.myLivestockNotification.hasError = false;
vm.myLivestockNotification.isLoading = false;
vm.user = data;
// Get alert count for the user
vm.getAlerts(vm.user.id);
}, function() {
vm.myLivestockNotification.hasError = true;
});
})();
}
angular
.module('abp')
.controller('MyLivestockController', MyLivestockController);
})();
Service
(function() {
'use strict';
function userService($q, $sessionStorage, $localStorage, $filter, user) {
var service = this;
service.getAlerts = function(id) {
var deferred = $q.defer();
user.alerts({ userID: id }, function(response) {
if (response.hasOwnProperty('data')) {
// Convert dates to valid Date
angular.forEach(response.data, function(alert) {
/* jshint camelcase: false */
if (alert.created_at) {
alert.created_at = $filter('abpDate')(alert.created_at);
/* jshint camelcase: true */
}
});
deferred.resolve(response.data);
}
else {
deferred.reject('DATA ERROR');
}
}, function(e) {
deferred.reject(e);
});
return deferred.promise;
};
angular
.module('abp')
.service('userService', userService);
})();
As you can see, I've got my getAlerts() function being called every time an alert is deleted, using the deleteAlert() function, but the <span data-ng-bind="vm.alertCount"></span> on the front-end only updates after refreshing the page, where I'd like it to update live.

Your bind is not updating because you change the value of alertCount outside of digest cycle of your angular app. When you refresh your app, the digest runs and thus your value gets updated. Wrap the update of the variable in $scope.apply() like so:
$scope.$apply(function(){
vm.alertCount = alertData.length;
});
This will force digest and update the value live.
If you have more values that are updated outside of digest (any callback, promise etc) you can force digest cycle by calling:
$scope.$apply();
Hope it helps.
EDIT -----
Given your update with full code, I see that you are not injecting scope anywhere in your controller, the controllers I write usually start like that:
(function () {
var app = angular.module('mainModule');
app.controller('myController', ['$scope', '$myService', function ($scope, $myService) {
//logic
}]);
}());
EDIT -----
Here is a quick go I had on your code:
(function() {
'use strict';
var app = angular.module('abp');
app.controller('MyLivestockController', ['$scope', 'userService', function($scope, userService) {
var vm = {};
$scope.vm = vm;
vm.myLivestockNotification = {
isLoading: true,
hasError: false
};
vm.alertsNotification = {
isLoading: true,
hasError: false,
hasData: false
};
vm.deleteAlert = function(id) {
vm.currentAlert = void 0;
vm.alertsNotification.isLoading = true;
userService.deleteAlert(vm.user.id, id).then(function() {
// Remove the alert from our Array
vm.alerts = vm.alerts.filter(function(alert) {
return alert.id !== id;
});
// Refresh the alert count for the user
vm.getAlerts(vm.user.id);
vm.alertsNotification.isLoading = false;
vm.alertsNotification.hasError = false;
}, function() {
vm.alertsNotification.hasError = true;
});
};
vm.getAlerts = function(id) {
userService.getAlerts(id).then(function(alertData) {
vm.alertCount = alertData.length;
if (vm.alertCount > 0) {
vm.alertsNotification.hasData = true;
} else {
vm.alertsNotification.hasData = false;
}
vm.alerts = alertData;
vm.alertsNotification.isLoading = false;
vm.alertsNotification.hasError = false;
//important, this is promise so we have to apply the scope to update view
$scope.$apply();
}, function() {
vm.alertsNotification.hasError = true;
});
};
// Init
(function() {
userService.getCurrentUser().then(function(data) {
vm.myLivestockNotification.hasError = false;
vm.myLivestockNotification.isLoading = false;
vm.user = data;
// Get alert count for the user
vm.getAlerts(vm.user.id);
}, function() {
vm.myLivestockNotification.hasError = true;
});
})();
}]);
})();
The general idea is:
you create an app (angular.module)
you create a controller in this app, with $scope injected
any values you want to be updated on your view, you add to $scope
if you have any $scope updates in a callback, event or promise, you wrap them in (or follow with) $scope.$apply call
I think this should work for you :)

I have attempted to reproduce your code below with a mock userService, and some slight modifications to the html view so we can more clearly see the alerts and delete them. I have not modified your Controller.
This appears to work, yes?
Which leads me to believe there may be some issue with the implementation of your userService. If you are able to post the relevant code, I can update this answer with a clarified solution.
UPDATE: As you've updated your question with the userService code, I've updated the below to more closely match. I still have a mock service standing in place of the user dependency of the userService. Additionally I made a couple of small edits to the Controller class so that while promises are still resolving we can see 'Updating...' in place of the alerts count.
This all still appears to work, unless I'm misunderstanding - will think on it more and update this 'answer' when I can think of where else to investigate for the source of the issue, see if we can at least reproduce it!
