I'm trying to solve a problem, that didn't exist in AngularJS, due to the $digest
-cycle checking everything.
I'm trying to create a component, that can initialize itself (async) and notify its surrounding container that the loading has been completed.
I have this pseudo-table:
<my-table>
<ng-container *ngFor="let row in rows">
<my-table-row
[row]="row"
[isLoading]="row.isLoading"
(click)="onClickRow(row)"
></my-table-row>
<my-detail-row *ngIf="row.isExpanded">
<my-component
[data]="row"
></my-component>
></my-detail-row>
</ng-container>
</my-table>
In the surrounding component (that holds the rows
), I have the function onClickRow(row)
which toggles row.isExpanded
.
In the my-component
component I want to set row.isLoading
to true (notifying the "parent" row that it is loading) and then setting it to false after the API call is completed.
@Input() data: any;
ngOnInit() {
this.task.isLoading = true; // PROBLEM
setTimeout(() => { // simulate API call
this.task.isLoading = false; // no problem
}, 2000);
}
Now I get this error: Error: ExpressionChangedAfterItHasBeenCheckedError: Expression has changed after it was checked. Previous value: 'undefined'. Current value: 'true'.
Error: ExpressionChangedAfterItHasBeenCheckedError: Expression has changed after it was checked. Previous value: 'undefined'. Current value: 'true'.
I guess this is because the change goes from my-component
up the tree to ng-container
but then not down to my-table-row
?
I have a workaround, in that I can use a second setTimeout()
, around the first setting of this.task.isLoading
, but this leads to some popin-effects and I would like to find a cleaner solution if possible.
Does anyone have a suggestion, how this can work?
I found a solution that I can live with.
You can inject the "parent" into your component (similar to require
in AngularJS).
For this to work, you need to combine my-table-row
and my-detail-row
into something like my-item-row
. This has the added benefit, that you can put the toggling-logic into the component and don't have to re-implement it on every use.
my-item-row.component.html
:
<div
class="item-row"
(click)="onToggleDetail()"
>
<div class="cell">...</div>
<div *ngIf="isLoading" class="loading"></div>
</div>
<div
*ngIf="isExpanded"
[hidden]="!isInitialized"
class="detail-row"
>
...
</div>
my-item-row.component.ts
:
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Input, ChangeDetectorRef } from '@angular/core';
@Component({...})
export class MyItemRowComponent {
...
isInitialized: boolean = false;
isLoading: boolean = false;
isExpanded: boolean = false;
constructor(private changeDetector: ChangeDetectorRef) { }
onToggleDetail() : void {
this.isExpanded = !this.isExpanded;
}
public startLoading() : void {
this.isLoading = true;
this.isInitialized = false;
this.changeDetector.detectChanges(); // trigger re-evaluate
}
public stopLoading() : void {
this.isLoading = false;
this.isInitialized = true;
this.changeDetector.detectChanges(): // trigger re-evaluate
}
}
Now, you can inject this into my-component
, like this:
my-component.component.ts
:
import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { Input, Host, Optional } from '@angular/core';
import { MyItemRowComponent } from '...';
@Component({...})
export class MyComponentComponent {
...
// Optional, because there may be a case where we want to use it outside of a row
constructor(@Optional() @Host() private parent: MyItemRowComponent) { }
ngOnInit() { // or ngAfterViewInit, doesn't matter
if (this.parent) {
this.parent.startLoading();
}
setTimeout(() => { // simulate API call
if (this.parent) {
this.parent.stopLoading();
}
}, 2000);
}
}
This is my current solution.
This lead to a different issue with the my-component
being initiated, even when it wasn't expanded yet, see here:
