Passing data between angular controllers using service - css

I am having trouble passing data between controllers using a service. What i want to happen is when send data is clicked the data inputted into the text field should be populated in the Results controller. However nothing shows
Home.html:
<html>
<body>
<ion-header-bar class="bar-dark">
<h1 class="title"></h1>
</ion-header-bar>
<ion-view view-title="Home">
<ion-content ng-controller="StockUpdateCtrl">
<div class="list">
<ion-refresher pulling-text="Pull to Refresh" on-refresh="doRefresh()"></ion-refresher>
<div>{{text}}</div>
<input type='text' ng-model='text' />
<button type='button' ng-click='send()'>Send Data</button>
<div ng-controller='ResultsController'>
<div>
<h4>Ctrl2</h4>
<div>{{text}}</div>
</div>
</div>
</ion-content>
</ion-view>
</body>
</html>
HomeController.js:
var app = angular.module('starter', ['ionic'])
.run(function ($ionicPlatform) {
$ionicPlatform.ready(function () {
// Hide the accessory bar by default (remove this to show the accessory bar above the keyboard
// for form inputs)
if (window.cordova && window.cordova.plugins.Keyboard) {
cordova.plugins.Keyboard.hideKeyboardAccessoryBar(true);
}
if (window.StatusBar) {
StatusBar.styleDefault();
}
});
})
/*
* Data Service
* Service used to pass data between controllers
*/
app.factory('dataShare', function(){
var service = {};
service.data = false;
service.sendData = function(data){
this.data = data;
$rootScope.$broadcast('data_shared');
};
service.getData = function(){
return this.data;
};
return service;
});
/*
* Stock Update Controller
* Gets user input and then performs calculations to prepare to be displayed
*
*/
app.controller("StockUpdateCtrl", function ($scope, $http, dataShare) {
$scope.text = 'Hey';
$scope.send = function(){
dataShare.sendData($scope.text);
};
});
ResultsController.js:
* Resultse Controller
* Displays the results
*
*/
app.controller("ResultsController",function ($scope, dataShare) {
$scope.text = '';
$scope.$on('data_shared',function(){
var text = dataShare.getData();
$scope.text = text;
});
});

Haha figured it out. Yes it turned out it was the way i was calling the results page... I had to remove form tag
<form action="index.html#/results" ng-controller="StockUpdateCtrl">
and change my button to call the results page as such
<button type="submit" ui-sref="results" ng-click="calculate()" class="button button-block button-balanced">

Perform actions on component initialization in LWC

I recently started learning LWC. I am working on a requirement in LWC where on component initialization I need to use record Id to get value of numeric field from same object/record, check if it is 100 and display a message on component html. Note - this LWC is used as a quick action of type Screen Action. Following is current implementation which works at times and doesn't (not sure if it is a cache issue).
LWCComponent.html

Any suggestions to make this better?

address validation using google maps

I'm trying to do address validation using google api within a Meteor Platform. What's the best way to achieve that?
I tried this but I'm facing a lot of trouble. Is there a more structured way to do that in Meteor?
<div class="page">
<div id="main">
<form id="MyForm" name="MyForm" action="form.html">
<div id="map_canvas" style="float: right; height: 200px; width: 400px;"></div>
<div>
<label for="Name">
Name</label>
<input id="Name" name="Name" type="text" />
</div>
<div>
<label for="FullAddress">
Address</label>
<textarea id="FullAddress" name="FullAddress" cols="40" rows="5" class="fulladdressvalidator"></textarea>
</div>
<div>
<input id="Submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" type="button" />
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
// The following code show execute only after the page is fully loaded
$(document).ready(function () {
if ($('#MyForm').exists()) {
// Enable jQuery Validation for the form
$("#MyForm").validate({ onkeyup: false });
// Add validation rules to the FullAddress field
$("#FullAddress").rules("add", {
fulladdress: true,
required: true,

});
// This function will be executed when the form is submitted

</script>
To achieve this in a Meteor way you should put your html into a template:
<template name="tplExample">
<div class="page">
{{somedata}}
</div>
</template>
Then you can write your events and helpers for this template in a .js file:
Template['tplExample'].events({
//this scopes just elements from tplExample
"submit #Myform": function(e){/*handle the event*/ }
})
Template['tplExample'].rendered = function(){
// The following code show execute only after the page is fully loaded
}
Template['tplExample'].helpers({
//this scopes just elements from tplExample
some_data: function(){ /*handle data validation*/}
})

How do I add input controls dynamically using Meteor?

I have a form in weather that would have had the condition User add as many lines he needs. He clicks a button and an input is added below the other.
I can do this using jQuery, but I would prefer to use the resources of Meteor. Is it possible to do?
Yes it is, here is an example from one of my apps using the underscore package
In the main template:
<template name="ask">
{{#each answerArray}}
{{>answer}}
{{/each}}
<button id="addItem">Add item</button>
</template>
<template name="answer">
<div class="input-group pt10">
<input class="form-control answer" maxlength="30" placeholder="Answer (max 30 chars)" name="answer" />
<span class="input-group-btn">
<button class="btn btn-danger delButton" id="{{id}}" data-id="{{id}}" type="button">Delete</button>
</span>
</div>
</template>
In the js file:
Template.ask.created = function () {
Session.set('action', 'ask');
answerArray = [ //adding at least two items but it could also be empty
{
id: Random.id(), //using this to give an unique id to the control
value: ''
},
{
id: Random.id(),
value: ''
}
];
Session.set('answerArr', answerArray);
}
And the click event:
Template.ask.events = {
'click #addItem': function () {
var answerArray = Session.get('answerArr');
answerArray.push({
id: Random.id() //just a placeholder, you could put any here
});
Session.set('answerArr', answerArray);
}
}
And finally the helper:
Template.ask.helpers({
answerArray: function () {
var answerArray = Session.get("answerArr")
while (answerArray.length < 2) { //i chose to have it between 2 and 6, you can remove these
answerArray.push({
id: Random.id()
})
}
while (answerArray.length > 6) { // maximum
answerArray.pop();
}
Session.set('answerArr', answerArray);
return answerArray;
}
}
This will reactively increase the number of inputs. After that, if you want to process the inputs you could do the following, on a submit form event or button click:
'click #saveQ': function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
var arr = [];
_.each($('.answer'), function (item) {
if ($(item).val() != '')
arr.push({
answer: $(item).val(), //this you customize for your own purposes
number: 0
})
});
And also if you want to delete an input from the page you can use:
Template.answer.events = {
'click .delButton': function (e) {
var thisId = $(e.target).attr("id");
var answerArray = Session.get('answerArr');
var filteredArray = _.filter(answerArray, function (item) {
return item.id != thisId;
});
Session.set('answerArr', filteredArray);
}
}

AngularJS Binding, multiple controllers through a service, part of page rendered from php

I know this is long, but it appears something specific in what I'm doing in the more complex scenario is causing the issue. All simple examples I attempt work fine.
I have an application setup using angularjs and laravel four.
The home page is rendered via laravel routing:
Route::get('/', function() {
return View::make('app');
});
app.php returns the website skeleton with the following structure:
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en" ng-app="app">
<head>
<script src="/js/angular.js"></script>
<script src="/js/angular-sanitize.js"></script>
<script src="/js/angular-ui-router.js"></script>
<script src="/js/app.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="navbar navbar-inverse navbar-fixed-top" ng-controller="NavController">
<div class="navbar-inner">
<div class="container-fluid">
<button class="button pull-right" ng-click="logout()">Logout</button>
<p class="navbar-text pull-right" >
Logged in as {{ currentUser.email }} id is : {{ currentUser.userId }}
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row-fluid offset05">
<div id="view" ng-view></div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
basics of app.js:
var app = angular.module("app", ['ngSanitize','ui.state','ui.bootstrap']);
the user is initially routed to a login template, at which point a LoginController updates the user information which resides in UserService.
app.controller("LoginController", function($scope,$rootScope, $location, AuthenticationService, UserService) {
$scope.credentials = { email: "", password: "" };
$scope.login = function() {
AuthenticationService.login($scope.credentials).success(function() {
$location.path('/home');
});
};
});
Authentication Service updates the UserService variable appropriately:
app.factory("AuthenticationService", function($rootScope, $http, $sanitize, SessionService, FlashService, CSRF_TOKEN, UserService) {
return {
login: function(credentials) {
var login = $http.post("/auth/login", sanitizeCredentials(credentials));
login.success(function(data){
UserService.currentUser = data.user;
});
return login;
}
});
NavController (controller for navigation bar seen above) binds its scope to the UserService.currentUser.
app.controller("NavController",function($scope, UserService, AuthenticationService,$location){
$scope.currentUser = UserService.getCurrentUser();
});
Relevant parts of UserService:
app.factory("UserService", function($http){
var _currentUser = {}
return{
currentUser: _currentUser,
getCurrentUser: function() {
return _currentUser;}
};
});
When the user logs in, their user email and userid should appear in the navigation bar.
If I create an example which strictly uses javascript/html there are no issues with the binding.
With the mechanics/structure mentioned above, the navbar does not respond to the changes in the UserService current user variable until the entire page is reloaded.
After the user logs in, I can verify that the UserController and UserService both update the currentUser appropriately. In spite of this, the NavController will not reflect the updated user unless I reload the whole page.
I assume this is becuase the NavController is now re-running with the updated information, but why isn't normal binding working?
I guess this has something to do with the fact that the navigation bar is loaded via php.
My question is how can I either:
a) make the binding via the service work appropriately
or
b) reload the NavController when necessary (post login/logout)
There are a couple ways you can handle this.
You can bind your $scope to the service itself, in which case any changes to that model will be picked up automatically
You can observe changes to the service using $watch
In this example, you can see both techniques: (http://plnkr.co/edit/bhBXMr?p=preview):
var app = angular.module('plunker', []);
app.controller('MainCtrl', function($scope, AuthenticationService, UserService) {
$scope.user = UserService;
$scope.login = function(){
AuthenticationService.login();
}
// watch the service for changes to currentUser
$scope.$watch(function(){
return UserService.currentUser;
}, function(currentUser){
$scope.currentUser = currentUser;
}, true);
});
app.service('AuthenticationService', function($http, UserService){
return {
login: function(){
$http.get('data.json').success(function(data){
UserService.currentUser = data;
});
}
};
});
app.service('UserService', function($rootScope){
return {
currentUser: null
};
});
HTML Markup:
<body ng-controller="MainCtrl">
<button ng-click="login()">Login</button>
<div>Current User: {{user.currentUser}}</div>
<!-- from the watch -->
<div>Current User: {{currentUser}}</div>
</body>

Meteor Template events, how to get object that caused event?

I have some code similar to the following:
In myapp.html
<template name="problems">
<div class="problems">
{{#each problems}}
{{> problem}}
{{/each}}
</div>
</template
<template name="problem">
<div class="problem">
<div class="problem-text" id={{_id}}>{{text}}</div>
</div>
</template>
In myapp.js
Template.problem.events = {
'click .problem-text' : function () {
var user_id = Session.get('user_id');
// how to get problem_id of clicked item?
Router.gotoProblem(user_id, problem_id);
}
};
In this situation I want to get the id of the that matched .problem-text and was clicked.
I would like to know the "object" that generated the event? How do I do this?
The selected answer for this question will ONLY get the _id , and that too if _id is used in templates.
So better use, event.target, that will give COMPLETE object. So that can be used with jQuery or MooTools.
Template.top_nav.events({
'mousedown, .nav li a': function(evt){
console.log('the class of object that was clicked is ' + $(evt.target).attr("class"));
}
})
Try this:
Template.problem.events = {
'click .problem-text' : function () {
var user_id = Session.get('user_id');
// how to get problem_id of clicked item?
Router.gotoProblem(user_id, this._id);
}
};
You can access the problem object with this reference:
Template.problem.events = {
/**
* Handles problem text click.
* #param {jQuery.Event} event
*/
'click .problem-text' : function (event) {
/*
Here this is a reference to the problem object
and you have jQuery.Event object as the event argument.
*/
console.log(this, arguments);
var user_id = Session.get('user_id');
var problem = this;
// how to get problem_id of clicked item?
Router.gotoProblem(user_id, /** problem_id */problem._id);
}
};
