Please go through the code first
app.js
var app = angular.module('Nimbus', ['ngRoute']);
route.js
app.config(function($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider
.when('/login', {
controller: 'LoginController',
templateUrl: 'templates/pages/login.html',
title: 'Login'
})
.when('/home', {
controller: 'HomeController',
templateUrl: 'templates/pages/home.html',
title: 'Dashboard'
})
.when('/stats', {
controller: 'StatsController',
templateUrl: 'templates/pages/stats.html',
title: 'Stats'
})
}).run( function($q, $rootScope, $location, $route, Auth) {
$rootScope.$on( "$routeChangeStart", function(event, next, current) {
console.log("Started");
/* this line not working */
var canceler = $q.defer();
canceler.resolve();
});
$rootScope.$on("$routeChangeSuccess", function(currentRoute, previousRoute){
$rootScope.title = ($route.current.title) ? $route.current.title : 'Welcome';
});
})
home-controller.js
app.controller('HomeController',
function HomeController($scope, API) {
API.all(function(response){
console.log(response);
})
}
)
stats-controller.js
app.controller('StatsController',
function StatsController($scope, API) {
API.all(function(response){
console.log(response);
})
}
)
api.js
app.factory('API', ['$q','$http', function($q, $http) {
return {
all: function(callback) {
var canceler = $q.defer();
var apiurl = 'some_url'
$http.get(apiurl,{timeout: canceler.promise}).success(callback);
}
}
}]);
When I move from home to stats , again API will send http request, I have many http calls like this, I pasted only few lines of code.
What I need is I need to cancel abort all pending http requests on routechangestart or success
Or any other way to implement the same ?
I put together some conceptual code for this. It might need tweaking to fit your needs. There's a pendingRequests service that has an API for adding, getting and cancelling requests, a httpService that wraps $http and makes sure all requests are tracked.
By leveraging the $http config object (docs) we can get a way to cancel a pending request.
I've made a plnkr, but you're going to need quick fingers to see requests getting cancelled since the test-site I found typically responds within half a second, but you will see in the devtools network tab that requests do get cancelled. In your case, you would obviously trigger the cancelAll() call on the appropriate events from $routeProvider.
The controller is just there to demonstrate the concept.
DEMO
angular.module('app', [])
// This service keeps track of pending requests
.service('pendingRequests', function() {
var pending = [];
this.get = function() {
return pending;
};
this.add = function(request) {
pending.push(request);
};
this.remove = function(request) {
pending = _.filter(pending, function(p) {
return p.url !== request;
});
};
this.cancelAll = function() {
angular.forEach(pending, function(p) {
p.canceller.resolve();
});
pending.length = 0;
};
})
// This service wraps $http to make sure pending requests are tracked
.service('httpService', ['$http', '$q', 'pendingRequests', function($http, $q, pendingRequests) {
this.get = function(url) {
var canceller = $q.defer();
pendingRequests.add({
url: url,
canceller: canceller
});
//Request gets cancelled if the timeout-promise is resolved
var requestPromise = $http.get(url, { timeout: canceller.promise });
//Once a request has failed or succeeded, remove it from the pending list
requestPromise.finally(function() {
pendingRequests.remove(url);
});
return requestPromise;
}
}])
// The controller just helps generate requests and keep a visual track of pending ones
.controller('AppCtrl', ['$scope', 'httpService', 'pendingRequests', function($scope, httpService, pendingRequests) {
$scope.requests = [];
$scope.$watch(function() {
return pendingRequests.get();
}, function(pending) {
$scope.requests = pending;
})
var counter = 1;
$scope.addRequests = function() {
for (var i = 0, l = 9; i < l; i++) {
httpService.get('https://public.opencpu.org/ocpu/library/?foo=' + counter++);
}
};
$scope.cancelAll = function() {
pendingRequests.cancelAll();
}
}]);
You can use $http.pendingRequests to do that.
First, when you make request, do this:
var cancel = $q.defer();
var request = {
method: method,
url: requestUrl,
data: data,
timeout: cancel.promise, // cancel promise, standard thing in $http request
cancel: cancel // this is where we do our magic
};
$http(request).then(.....);
Now, we cancel all our pending requests in $routeChangeStart
$rootScope.$on('$routeChangeStart', function (event, next, current) {
$http.pendingRequests.forEach(function(request) {
if (request.cancel) {
request.cancel.resolve();
}
});
});
This way you can also 'protect' certain request from being cancelled by simply not providing 'cancel' field in request.
I think this is the best solution to abort requests. It's using an interceptor and $routeChangeSuccess event.
http://blog.xebia.com/cancelling-http-requests-for-fun-and-profit/
Please notice that im new with Angular so this may not be optimal.
Another solution could be:
on the $http request adding the "timeout" argument, Docs I did it this way:
In a factory where I call all my Rest services, have this logic.
module.factory('myactory', ['$http', '$q', function ($http, $q) {
var canceler = $q.defer();
var urlBase = '/api/blabla';
var factory = {};
factory.CANCEL_REQUESTS = function () {
canceler.resolve();
this.ENABLE_REQUESTS();
};
factory.ENABLE_REQUESTS = function () {
canceler = $q.defer();
};
factory.myMethod = function () {
return $http.get(urlBase, {timeout: canceler.promise});
};
factory.myOtherMethod= function () {
return $http.post(urlBase, {a:a, b:b}, {timeout: canceler.promise});
};
return factory;
}]);
and on the angular app configuration I have:
return angular.module('app', ['ngRoute', 'ngSanitize', 'app.controllers', 'app.factories',
'app.filters', 'app.directives', 'ui.bootstrap', 'ngGeolocation', 'ui.select' ])
.run(['$location', '$rootScope', 'myFactory', function($location, $rootScope, myFactory) {
$rootScope.$on('$routeChangeSuccess', function (event, current, previous) {
myFactory.CANCEL_REQUESTS();
$rootScope.title = current.$$route.title;
});
}]);
This way it catches all the "route" changes and stops all the request configured with that "timer" so you can select what is critical for you.
I hope it helps to someone.

After trying some solutions like this: Aborting ngResource using a promise object I'm unable to cancel a request made with $resource.
My last try was with this:
Controller:
angular.module('theApp')
.controller('homeController', function ($q, foodTypeFactory) {
var vm = this;
vm.testButton = function () {
vm.aborter = $q.defer();
foodTypeFactory(vm.aborter).getTest({}, function (data) {
console.log(data);
});
};
vm.cancelButton = function () {
vm.aborter.resolve();
}
});
foodTypeFactory:
angular.module('theApp')
.factory('foodTypeFactory', function ($resource, BACKEND_API) {
return function (aborter) {
return $resource(BACKEND_API + '/api/foodtypes/:id', {id: '#id'}, {
getTest: {
timeout: aborter.promise
}
});
}
});
Once the request is made it completes even if I try to cancel it.
I'm using Angular 1.6.2 with angular-resource 1.6.2.
What am I doing wrong?
What i Can suggest to you is to use an http interceptor .. the you can stop a request... somthing like this:
1) create a file like (auth.interceptor.js:
"use strict";
angular
.module("demo")
.factory('authInterceptorService', ['$q', '$location', 'localStorageService',
function ($q, $location, localStorageService) {
// Public Method
return {
request: function (config) {
config.headers = config.headers || {};
if(!MYCONDITION){ //<-- you can here your logic to test if conitnue request flow or not
return; //<-- TERMINATE IT ..
}else{
return config; //<-- CONTINUE WITH NORMAL REQUEST
}
}
};
}]);
2) in your app.config.js file:
$httpProvider.interceptors.push("authInterceptorService");
Then in ALL your request (via $http or via $resource) this logic is apply ... here you can also put the injection of the Bearer Token if you need it
Hope it help you
Finally I found a solution!
From angular 1.5 $resource can be cancelled with $cancelRequest().
In my case:
Controller:
angular.module('theApp')
.controller('homeController', function (foodTypeFactory) {
var vm = this;
vm.testButton = function () {
vm.onGoingRequest = foodTypeFactory.getTest({}, function (data) {
console.log(data);
});
};
vm.cancelButton = function () {
vm.onGoingRequest.$cancelRequest();
}
});
foodTypeFactory:
angular.module('theApp')
.factory('foodTypeFactory', function ($resource, BACKEND_API) {
return $resource(BACKEND_API + '/api/foodtypes/:id', {id: '#id'}, {
getTest: {
cancellable: true
}
});
});
I have jsdom/mocha/chai set up for backend angular testing.
I have a service that essentially does this (intentionally no post data):
app.service('testService', ['config', '$http', function(config, $http) {
function getSpecificConfig(type) {
return config.getConfig()
.then(function(config) {
// config is coming back defined;
// $http timesout
return $http({method: 'post', url: 'http://localhost:2222/some/path', withCredentials: true});
})
.then(function(res) {
return res.data.config[type];
})
.catch(function(err) {
//handles err
});
};
return {
getConfig: getConfig
}
}]);
my test is:
/* jshint node: true */
/* jshint esversion: 6 */
let helpers = require(bootstrapTest),
inject = helpers.inject,
config,
specificConfig,
mockResponse,
$httpBackend,
$rootScope;
//config service
require('config.js');
//testService I'm testing
require('testService');
beforeEach(inject(function($injector, _$httpBackend_) {
config = $injector.get('config');
specificConfig = $injector.get('testService');
$rootScope = $injector.get('$rootScope');
$httpBackend = _$httpBackend_;
$httpBackend.when('POST', 'http://localhost:2222/some/path')
.response(function(data) {
//would like this to fire
console.log('something happened');
mockResponse = {data: 'some data'};
return mockResponse;
});
}));
afterEach(function() {
$httpBackend.verifyNoOutstandingExpectations();
$httpBackend.verifyNoOutstandingRequest();
});
describe ('this service', function() {
beforeEach(function() {
$httpBackend.expect('POST', 'http://localhost:2222/some/path');
$rootScope.$apply(function() {
return specificConfig('something');
});
});
it ('returns the specific config', function() {
expect(mockResponse).to.equal('some data');
})
});
Problem:
When the test is run, the config.getConfig() is resolving properly but the $http leads to a mocha timeout (2000ms) and the afterEach hook throws an Unsatisfied request.
My understanding of this may be completely incorrect so please feel free to educate me on the correct approach (here was my approach):
1) require all necessary dependencies.
2)inject them and set up a $httpBackend listener which fires the test response when the real http is fired.
3) $rootScope.$apply() any promises as the resolution of them is tied to the angular lifecycle.
4) the first before each sets the listener, the second before each fires the service which fires the $http allowing $httpBackend to fire and set the mockResponse.
5) test mock response.
If you need to return promises in your mocked HTTP requests you can use angular-mocks-async like so:
var app = ng.module( 'mockApp', [
'ngMockE2E',
'ngMockE2EAsync'
]);
app.run( [ '$httpBackend', '$q', function( $httpBackend, $q ) {
$httpBackend.whenAsync(
'GET',
new RegExp( 'http://api.example.com/user/.+$' )
).respond( function( method, url, data, config ) {
var re = /.*\/user\/(\w+)/;
var userId = parseInt(url.replace(re, '$1'), 10);
var response = $q.defer();
setTimeout( function() {
var data = {
userId: userId
};
response.resolve( [ 200, "mock response", data ] );
}, 1000 );
return response.promise;
});
}]);
I have tried everything to get ui-router's resolve to pass it's value to the given controller–AppCtrl. I am using dependency injection with $inject, and that seems to cause the issues. What am I missing?
Routing
$stateProvider.state('app.index', {
url: '/me',
templateUrl: '/includes/app/me.jade',
controller: 'AppCtrl',
controllerAs: 'vm',
resolve: {
auser: ['User', function(User) {
return User.getUser().then(function(user) {
return user;
});
}],
}
});
Controller
appControllers.controller('AppCtrl', AppCtrl);
AppCtrl.$inject = ['$scope', '$rootScope'];
function AppCtrl($scope, $rootScope, auser) {
var vm = this;
console.log(auser); // undefined
...
}
Edit
Here's a plunk http://plnkr.co/edit/PoCiEnh64hR4XM24aH33?p=preview
When you use route resolve argument as dependency injection in the controller bound to the route, you cannot use that controller with ng-controller directive because the service provider with the name aname does not exist. It is a dynamic dependency that is injected by the router when it instantiates the controller to be bound in its respective partial view.
Also remember to return $timeout in your example, because it returns a promise otherwise your argument will get resolved with no value, same is the case if you are using $http or another service that returns a promise.
i.e
resolve: {
auser: ['$timeout', function($timeout) {
return $timeout(function() {
return {name:'me'}
}, 1000);
}],
In the controller inject the resolve dependency.
appControllers.controller('AppCtrl', AppCtrl);
AppCtrl.$inject = ['$scope', '$rootScope','auser']; //Inject auser here
function AppCtrl($scope, $rootScope, auser) {
var vm = this;
vm.user = auser;
}
in the view instead of ng-controller, use ui-view directive:
<div ui-view></div>
Demo
Here is how I work with resolve. It should receive promise. So I create service accordingly.
app.factory('User', function($http){
var user = {};
return {
resolve: function() {
return $http.get('api/user/1').success(function(data){
user = data;
});
},
get: function() {
return user;
}
}
});
This is main idea. You can also do something like this with $q
app.factory('User', function($q, $http){
var user = {};
var defer = $q.defer();
$http.get('api/user/1').success(function(data){
user = data;
defer.resolve();
}).error(function(){
defer.reject();
});
return {
resolve: function() {
return defer.promise;
},
get: function() {
return user;
}
}
});
These are almost identical in action. The difference is that in first case, service will start fetching date when you call resolve() method of service and in second example it will start fetch when factory object is created.
Now in your state.
$stateProvider.state('app.index', {
url: '/me',
templateUrl: '/includes/app/me.jade',
controller: function ($scope, $rootScope, User) {
$scope.user = User.get();
console.log($scope.user);
},
controllerAs: 'vm',
resolve: {
auser: function(User) {
return User.resolve()
}
}
});
I've searched on Google but can't find information on how to do this properly. Seems like all the answers on Google are now outdated (using older versions of AngularJS).
I'm trying to setup two controllers on my AngularJS module. For example, the first controller is handling $http GET requests. And the second controller is displaying either a 'success' or 'error' message. I want to be able to call a method from the second controller with the success/error message that is to be displayed.
Or am I supposed to use a service/factory for this? I've read about services but can't figure out how to make something like this work.
var module = angular.module('app', []);
module.controller('ApiController', ['$scope', '$http', function ($scope, $http) {
$http.get('/api').
success(function(data){
// call AlertController('success')
}).
error(function(data){
// call AlertController('failed')
});
}]);
module.controller('AlertController', ['$scope', function ($scope) {
$scope.message = {
show_message: true,
type: 'info',
message: "Display message!"
};
}]);
Either doing it that way, or perhaps I would like to push the incoming alert onto a global object variable, and then remove it after it has been displayed.
Anyone know the proper way to set this up?
Ok let's try this - you should also check out Injecting $scope into an angular service function()
The Message service:
module.service('MessageService', function ($timeout) {
var messageQueue = [];
var DISPLAY_TIME = 5000; // each message will be displayed for 5 seconds
function startTimer() {
$timeout(function() {
// Remove the first message in the queue
messageQueue.shift();
// Start timer for next message (if there is one)
if (messageQueue.length > 0) startTimer();
}, DISPLAY_TIME);
}
function add(message) {
messageQueue.push(message);
// If this is the only message in the queue you need to start the timer
if (messageQueue.length==0) startTimer();
}
function get() {
if (messageQueue.length==0) return "";
else return messageQueue[0];
}
return { add: add, get: get };
});
You can still use this ApiService as well:
module.service('ApiService', ['$http', function ($http) {
return {
get: function(url) {
return $http.get(url);
}
};
}]);
Your Search controller:
module.controller('SearchController', ['$scope', 'ApiService', 'MessageService', function ($scope, api, messages) {
api.get('/yelp').
success(function(data){
messages.add('success');
}).
error(function(data){
messages.add('failed');
});
}]);
Your Alert controller:
module.controller('AlertController', ['$scope', 'MessageService', function ($scope, messages) {
$scope.getMessage = function() { messages.get(); }
}]);
So in your html you can have:
<div ng-controller="AlertController">
<div>{{ getMessage() }}</div>
</div>
here is how you make factory
module.factory('appService', ['$window', '$http', '$q', function(win, $http, $q) {
return{
backendcall: function(){
var deferred = $q.defer();
$http.get('/yelp').
success(function(data){
deferred.resolve(data);
}).
error(function(data){
deferred.resolve(status);
});
return deferred.promise;
}
}
}]);
and your controller will be like this
module.controller('AlertController', ['$scope', 'appService', function ($scope, appService) {
appService.backendcall().then(function(response){
$scope.message = {
show_message: true,
type: 'info',
message: "Display message!"
};
})
}]);
I need to do a request inside the RUN method to retrieve de user data from an api.
The first page (home), depends on the user data.
This is the sequence of dispatchs in my console:
CONFIG
RUN
INIT GET USER DATA
SIDEBAR
HOME
SUCCESS GET USER DATA
My problem is, i need to wait user data before call sidebar and home (controller and view) and i don't know how can i do this.
UPDATE
I have this until now:
MY CONFIG:
extranet.config(['$httpProvider', '$routeProvider', function ($httpProvider, $routeProvider) {
// My ROUTE CONFIG
console.log('CONFIG');
}]);
My RUN:
extranet.run(function($rootScope, $location, $http, Cookie, Auth, Session) {
console.log('RUN');
var token = Cookie.get('token');
// The login is done
var success = function (data) {
Session.create(data);
console.log('USER DATA SUCCESS');
};
var error = function () {
$location.path('/login');
};
// GET USER DATA
Auth.isAuthenticated().success(success).error(error);
});
MY CONTROLLER MAIN:
extranet.controller('MainCtrl', function ($scope, $location) {
console.log('MAIN CONTROLLER');
});
By using resolver
extranet.config(['$httpProvider', '$routeProvider', function ($httpProvider, $routeProvider) {
// My ROUTE CONFIG
$routeProvider.when('/', {
templateUrl: "/app/templates/sidebar.html",
controller: "siderbarController",
title: "EventList",
resolve: {
events: function ($q, Cookie,Session) {
var deffered = $q.defer();
Cookie.get('token').$promise
.then(function (events) {
Session.create(data);
console.log('USER DATA SUCCESS');
deffered.resolve(events);
}, function (status) {
deffered.reject(status);
});
return deffered.promise;
}
}
}]);
I hope you get some idea.
If you are using AngularJS methods for server requests you will get a promise. A promise gets resolved as soon as the response is recieved. All defined callbacks "wait" until the resolve.
Naive solution
So, you will use $http or even $resource if you have a REST-like backend:
var promise = $http.get(userDataUrl, params)
$rootScope.userDataPromise = promise;
After that you can use that promise whereever you need the data:
$rootScope.userDataPromise.then(myCallback)
Better solution
Using $rootScope for that purpose is not an elegant solution though. You should encapsulate the Userdata stuff in a service and inject it whereever you need it.
app.factory('UserData', ['$http',
function($http) {
var fetch = function() {
return $http.get(userDataUrl, params)
};
return {
fetch: fetch
};
}
]);
Now you can use that service in other modules:
app.controller('MainCtrl', ['$scope', 'UserService',
function ($scope, UserService) {
var update = function(response) {
$scope.userData = response.userData;
}
var promise = UserService.fetch();
promise.then(update)
}
);
