Issue in populating ajax data into table via ng-repeat

I am trying to populate a table on receiving JSON data on an Ajax get from Mongo DB.
I am able to see the received data in alert. But my table is not populated.
I am clicking the retrive button to get the data.
JS code:
$scope.retrive = function()
{
$scope.people =[];
$.ajax({
url : "https://api.mongolab.com/api/1/databases/geolocation/collections/boom?apiKey=veTqID_gkb74tG-yL4MGcS1p2RRBP1Pf",
type : "GET",
dataType: "json",
success: function(data) {
$scope.people = JSON.stringify(data);
alert($scope.people);
//alert("status = "+data.status+"descripttion"+data.description);
//console.log(data);
//document.getElementById("n1").innerHTML = data[0].name;
//alert(JSON.stringify(data));
tableCreate(data);
//alert(data[0].name);
//var json = JSON.parse(data);
//alert(json.name);
}
});
};
}]);
HTML code:
<div>
<table>
<tr>
<th>ITEM</th>
<th>DESCRIPTION</th>
<th>QUANTITY</th>
<th>LOCATION</th>
<th>CATEGORY</th>
</tr>
<tr ng-repeat="person in people">
<td>{{person.Item}}</td>
<td>{{person.Description}}</td>
<td>{{person.Quantity}}</td>
<td>{{person.Location}}</td>
<td>{{person.Category}}</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>

Try is like this:
Note (Just a tip ): Putting API keys within stack overflow questions is not a good idea. Keep the API key private as any body can use your key and you could blocked out from the service due to unauthorised usage.
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', []);
myApp.controller('projectController', function($scope, $http){
$scope.userDetails = [];
$scope.test = function(){
console.log("getting user projects, please wait ......");
// Simple GET request example (passing data) :
$http.get("https://api.mongolab.com/api/1/databases/geolocation/collections/boom?apiKey=YOUR-API-KEY", {
}).
success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
// this callback will be called asynchronously
// when the response is available
console.log("");
$scope.userDetails = data;
}).
error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
// called asynchronously if an error occurs
// or server returns response with an error status.
});
};
});

Refresh list in ng-repeat without onclick funtion

Hello i am trying to display data from server in Angularjs App, where i got the data and use ng-repeat to display it through controller.
Here is how my controller looks like:
module.controller('FiveReasons', function($scope, $http, $rootScope, $sce) {
ons.ready(function() {
$scope.reasonsLists = {};
var reasonsListing = $http.get("http://vbought.com/design_14/index.php/design_ci/post/Clients");
reasonsListing.success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
console.log(data[0].post_title);
$scope.reasonsLists = data;
$scope.spinner = false;
});
reasonsListing.error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
alert("Can Not load the address Ajax");
});
});
});
But when the ng-repeat finish loading, the data is not displaying.
Here is how my ng-repeat is:
<ons-carousel swipeable overscrollable auto-scroll fullscreen var="carousel" name="FiveRes" class="FiveRes">
<div ng-repeat="reasonsList in reasonsLists">
<ons-carousel-item style="background: #09a4c0;" >
<div class="item-label">Number : {{reasonsList}}</div>
</ons-carousel-item>
</div>
<ons-carousel-cover></ons-carousel-cover>
</ons-carousel>
How can i now refresh the list once the data is there. Like we do "trigger("refresh")" in jquery.
After running ng-repeat, this is how i get the value but the screen is going blank.
Thank you! (In advance)

I think in this case I'd eliminate the use of ready and call your code using ng-init.
module.controller('FiveReasons', function($scope, $http) {
this.reasonsLists = {};
$scope.getReasonsLists = function() {
$scope.reasonsLists = {};
$http.get("http://vbought.com/design_14/index.php/design_ci/post/Clients")
.success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
console.log(data[0].post_title);
$scope.reasonsLists = data;
$scope.spinner = false;
})
.error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
alert("Can Not load the address Ajax");
});
};
});
then in your html on the table tag just add ng-init="getReasonsLists()"

Try this:
module.controller('FiveReasons', function($scope, $http, $rootScope, $sce) {
ons.ready(function() {
$scope.reasonsLists = {};
var reasonsListing = $http.get("http://vbought.com/design_14/index.php/design_ci/post/Clients");
reasonsListing.success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
console.log(data[0].post_title);
$scope.reasonsLists = data;
$scope.spinner = false;
});
reasonsListing.error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
alert("Can Not load the address Ajax");
});
//ADD this to notify Angular for the changes and run a digest cycle
$scope.$digest();
});
});
This is happening because the event (ons-ready) handler will not start a new $digest cycle.
To display the data without having to call $digest(), remove the ons-ready callback and execute your code directly in the controllers body. Like the example bellow:
module.controller('FiveReasons', function($scope, $http, $rootScope, $sce) {
$scope.reasonsLists = {};
var reasonsListing = $http.get("http://vbought.com/design_14/index.php/design_ci/post/Clients");
reasonsListing.success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
console.log(data[0].post_title);
$scope.reasonsLists = data;
$scope.spinner = false;
});
reasonsListing.error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
alert("Can Not load the address Ajax");
});
//No need to call $digest
});
UPDATE: Check this Codepen which is a simplified version of your code that shows only the issue. Remove $scope.$digest() from the comments to see the carousel working.

A "refresh" should not be necessary as angular uses a different approach. After certain events like "click" or the return of a $http-promise, angular goes through the binded variables and checks if they have changed - and if so - changes the DOM.
In your case I think the promise is returning before you add the success-callback. Try chaining it like:
$http.get("http://vbought.com/design_14/index.php/design_ci/post/Clients").success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
console.log(data[0].post_title);
$scope.reasonsLists = data;
$scope.spinner = false;
}).error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
alert("Can Not load the address Ajax");
});
In other cases you can use $scope.$apply() but I think this should tell you, that you can't nest $digests as there should be one going on after a $http-request.

How to add eventlisteners after simple get request json in angularjs?

Ok so I am experimenting with Angular but I have run into a problem and maybe it is because I haven't adopted the Angular way of thinking yet, but this is basically what I ran into.
I get some data with a JSON request and show this data in a list using ng-repeat. So far so good. No errors in the console, but it does not attach the eventlistener to the ng-repeat elements. The code is fine, because with non ng-repeat elements it works like a charm. Someone else ran into this problem and how did you solve it? Thanks in advance.
<div ng-controller="basictrl">
<h1>Lijst van producten</h1>
<ul ng-repeat="item in producten">
<li>{{item.naam}}</li>
<li>{{item.prijs}}</li>
</ul>
</div>
JS
angular.module("app", ['ngRoute'])
.controller("basictrl", function ($scope, $http, producteffecten) {
$scope.producten = null;
$http({
method: 'GET',
url: 'producten.json'
}).
success(function (data, status, headers, config) {
$scope.producten = data;
$scope.showdescription = producteffecten.showdescription;
}).error(function (data, status, headers, config) {});
})
.factory('producteffecten', function() {
var effecten = {};
effecten.showdescription = $('ul').hover(function (){
$(this).append("<p>Test</p>");
});
return effecten;
})

The simple answer is: you can use $('ul').on("hover",function(){}). But this is not the angular way of thinking. The first improvement you could make is this:
add ng-mouseover="muisOverEffectje()" to the ul in the html
add $scope.muisOverEffectje=function(){ your event code} to the angular page
The next step to avoid adding the code with jquery to make it even more angular could be something like this:
add a parameter which gives the selected item to your event : muisOverEffectje(item)
add ng-show="showDescription" to the the ul
put show-description to true in the event handler
The last step could be: Make a directive for you . Like a product component for example.

Setting a timeout works, but it is hacky I guess. I will try to rewrite in a more angular way.
.factory('producteffecten', function() {
var effecten = {};
//SETTING TIMEOUT WORKS SOMEHOW
effecten.showdescription = setTimeout(function() {
$('ul').hover(function (){
$(this).append("<p>Test</p>");
});
}, 10);
return effecten;
})

You could also write an directive. Which is the nicest way in angular to do this kind of stuff:
Html:
<div ng-controller="basictrl">
<h1>Lijst van producten</h1>
<ul ng-repeat="item in producten" hover-text="item.effect">
<li>{{item.naam}}</li>
<li>{{item.prijs}}</li>
</ul>
</div>
js:
.controller("basictrl", function ($scope, $http, producteffecten) {
$scope.producten = null;
$http({
method: 'GET',
url: 'producten.json'
}).
success(function (data, status, headers, config) {
$scope.producten = data;
$scope.showdescription = producteffecten.showdescription;
}).error(function (data, status, headers, config) {});
})
.directive("hoverText",function(){
return {link:function(scope,elem,attr){
var insertElem=$("<div class='hovertext'>"+scope.hoverText+"</div>")
elem .mouseenter(function() {
insertElem.appendTo(elem);
})
.mouseleave(function() {
insertElem.remove();
});
},
scope:{"hoverText":"="}
};
});

AngularJS: display a select box from JSON data retrieved by http GET (from REST service)

I have a REST service that I made which returns a json string which is simply a set of strings (I used Gson to generate this string (Gson.toJson(mySetOfStrings))
So I have added to my index.html:
<div ng-controller="ListOptionsCtrl">
<form novalidate>
<button ng-click="refreshList()">refresh</button>
<select name="option" ng-model="form.option" ng-options="o.n for o in optionsList></select>
</form>
</div>
and in my script:
var ListOptionsCtrl = function ListOptionsCtrl($scope, $http) {
$scope.refreshList = function() {
$http({
method: 'GET'
url: '*someurl*'
}).
success(function(data) {
$scope.optionsList = angular.fromJson(data);
});
};
}
Unfortunately all this produces in my select box is an empty list. When I see what the response to the GET request is it returns a json string with content in it so I do not see why nothing is being added to this element. What am I doing wrong here? thanks

It is because Angular does not know about your changes yet. Because Angular allow any value to be used as a binding target. Then at the end of any JavaScript code turn, check to see if the value has changed.
You need to use $apply
var ListOptionsCtrl = function ListOptionsCtrl($scope, $http) {
$scope.refreshList = function() {
$http({
method: 'GET'
url: '*someurl*'
}).
success(function(data) {
$scope.$apply(function () {
$scope.optionsList = angular.fromJson(data);
});
});
};
}
Try this.
More about how it works and why it is needed at Jim Hoskins's post

You should check for $digest error by doing if(!$scope.$$phase) { ... } before doing $apply.
success(function(data) {
if(!$scope.$$phase) {
$scope.$apply(function () {
$scope.optionsList = angular.fromJson(data);
});
}
});

AngularJS: Async $http.jsonp call from a service

I am trying to write a simple app that does the following:
1. User inputs 2 parameters & clicks a button
2. Angular calls an external JAVA Servlet that returns JSON
3. App outputs the json string to the screen
I have a problem however, as when i click the button nothing happens. I believe (due to testing) that the reason this happens is that since the call is async, the variable that is returned is null.
Pertinent code:
controllers.js
function myAppController($scope,kdbService) {
$scope.buttonClick = function(){
var dat = kdbService.get($scope.tName,$scope.nRows);
$scope.data = dat;
}
}
services.js
angular.module('myApp.services', []).factory('kdbService',function ($rootScope,$http){
var server="http://localhost:8080/KdbRouterServlet";
return {
get: function(tname,n){
var dat;
$http.jsonp(server+"?query=krisFunc[`"+tname+";"+n+"]&callback=JSON_CALLBACK").
success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
console.log("1");
console.log(data);
dat=data;
}).
error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
alert("ERROR: Could not get data.");
});
console.log("2");
console.log(dat);
return dat;
}
}
});
index.html
<!-- Boilerplate-->
<h1>Table Viewer</h1>
<div class="menu" >
<form>
<label for="tName">Table Name</label>
<input id="tName" ng-model="tName"><br>
<label for="nRows">Row Limit</label>
<input id="nRows" ng-model="nRows"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" ng-click="buttonClick()">
</form>
</div>
{{data}}
<!-- Boilerplate-->
When i execute the code and push the button, nothing happens. However, if i look in my log, i see this:
2
undefined
1
Object {x: Array[2], x1: Array[2]}
Clearly, what is happening is that the success function returns after the get function has returned. Therefore the object put into $scope.data is undefined, but the object returned from the jsonp call is left behind.
Is there a correct way to be doing this? Most of the tutorials I see assign the data to the $scope variable inside the success function, thereby skipping this problem. I want my service to be detached if possible.
Any help would be appreciated.

i would do something like that :
controller
function myAppController($scope,kdbService) {
$scope.kdbService = kdbService;
$scope.buttonClick = function(){
$scope.kdbService.get($scope.tName,$scope.nRows);
}
}
service
angular.module('myApp.services', []).factory('kdbService',function ($rootScope,$http){
var server="http://localhost:8080/KdbRouterServlet";
return {
data:{},
get: function(tname,n){
var self = this;
$http.jsonp(server+"?
query=krisFunc[`"+tname+";"+n+"]&callback=JSON_CALLBACK").
success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
console.log("1");
console.log(data);
self.data = data;
}).
error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
alert("ERROR: Could not get data.");
});
}
}
});
html
{{kdbService.data}}
OR
use continuation in the get method :
controller
function myAppController($scope,kdbService) {
$scope.buttonClick = function(){
kdbService.get($scope.tName,$scope.nRows,function success(data){
$scope.data = data;
});
}
}
service
get: function(tname,n,successCallback){
$http.jsonp(server+"?query=krisFunc[`"+tname+";"+n+"]&callback=JSON_CALLBACK").
success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
successCallback(data,status,headers,config);
}).
error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
alert("ERROR: Could not get data.");
});
}
OR use the $resource service
http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ngResource.$resource ( you'll need the angular-resource module
code not tested.
I want my service to be detached if possible.
then put the "data object" in a "data service" calling a "data provider service". You'll have to call the "data provider service" somewhere anyway. There is no skipping this problem in my opinion, since that's how javascript work.
also use angular.controller("name",["$scope,"service",function($s,s){}]);
so you will not need to care how parameters are called , as long as they are defined and injected properly.
