First, here is my fiddle so you can understand my problem : https://jsfiddle.net/860Ltbva/5/
I would like to display a loading message when the loop ng-repeat is loading, and hide it when all the elements are loaded.
I used this fiddle to help : http://jsfiddle.net/jwcarroll/ZFp3a/
This code uses a directive to know when the last element is loaded :
app.directive("repeatEnd", function() {
return {
restrict: "A",
link: function(scope, element, attrs) {
if (scope.$last) {
scope.$eval(attrs.repeatEnd);
}
}
};
});
First problem:
This work only if I load every elements, but I use an ng-if to filter it, and this is where I have some problems. Because if the last element isn't loaded, the $scope.$last isn't true. So instead of hiding the loader everytime and removing once loaded, it's removed only in one case.
The HTML:
<div class="test" ng-repeat="light in lights" ng-if="showLights(light.status)" repeat-end="onEnd()">
<span>{{light.name}} - {{light.status}}</span></div>
And the controller:
app.controller("MyCtrl", function($scope, $timeout) {
$scope.lights = [];
$scope.loadingPatients = true;
$scope.showStatus = 'on';
for (var x = 0; x < 10000; x=x+2) {
$scope.lights[x] = {'name': 'kitchen', 'status':'off'};
$scope.lights[x+1] = {'name': 'living room', 'status':'on'};
}
$scope.showStatusFct = function(status){
$scope.loadingPatients = true;
$scope.showStatus = status;
};
$scope.showLights = function(lightStatus) {
if ($scope.showStatus == 'on') {
if (lightStatus == 'on')
return true;
} else {
if (lightStatus == 'off')
return true;
}
}
$scope.onEnd = function() {
$scope.loadingPatients = false;
};
});
Second Problem
The variable $scope.loadingPatients is updated once the file is loaded, and not as soon as I click, which is weird because you can't see the loader
Any idea for those problems? Thanks
After a while, I finally found a solution. I'm not sure it's the best but the performance are better and the loader works.
For that, I used the $interval method of angular, and used filter and limitTo in the ng-repeat loop. I finally removed the ng-if.
Here is the new fiddle : https://jsfiddle.net/timguignard/7p3rayjr/11/
I just increase the limitTo every few seconds thanks to the interval, which makes the ng-repeat going faster, and also makes the loader work. And it start loading as soon as the page is loading, you don't see the ng-repeat freezing at the beginning.
My last advice is actually not to use a too long ng-repeat, and to use the limitTo to a maximum. In the example, the limitTo is equal to the length of the object, but if I put 100,000 objects, it will still make the application freeze for a moment when you change the filter. If I put a maximum to 1,000 or even 10,000, you won't see it freeze.
Here is the code:
HTML
<div ng-controller="MyCtrl">
<button ng-click="upFilter('on')">Show lights ON</button>
<button ng-click="upFilter('off')">Show lights OFF</button>
<div ng-show="loadingWait">==LOADING==</div>
<div ng-hide="loadingWait">==LOADED==</div>
Limit lights: {{limitLights}} - Max all lights: {{maxLights}}
<div class="test" ng-repeat="light in lights | filter : filter | limitTo:limitLights">
<span>{{light.name}} - {{light.status}}</span>
</div>
</div>
And the Javascript
(function() {
angular.element(document).ready(function() {
var app = angular.module('myApp', []);
app.controller("MyCtrl", function($scope, $interval) {
$scope.lights = [];
$scope.loadingWait = true;
//set the data
for (var x = 0; x < 10000; x = x + 2) {
$scope.lights[x] = {
'name': 'kitchen',
'status': 'off'
};
$scope.lights[x + 1] = {
'name': 'living room',
'status': 'on'
};
}
$scope.maxLights = $scope.lights.length;
$scope.upFilter = function(stat) {
$scope.loadingWait = true;
$scope.filter = {
status: stat
};
loading();
}
loading();
//login with interval
var myInterval;
function loading() {
$scope.loadingWait = true;
$scope.limitLights = 1;
myInterval = $interval(function() {
if ($scope.limitLights > $scope.lights.length) {
$interval.cancel(myInterval);
myInterval = undefined;
$scope.loadingWait = false;
}
$scope.limitLights += 1000;
}, 100)
}
});
//to make the fiddle work
angular.bootstrap(document, ['myApp']);
});
}());
Hope it can help if anyone needs it. If you have a better solution, feel free to share below I'll check it!
I also found this fiddle, which seems to use a better option. I'll try to check it too : http://jsfiddle.net/nikospara/b8thjobp/
