updating model and binding update operations with UI
angularjs
Solution
As far as I understand your code you only update the db without updating the cars model ($scope.cars) so changes are only reflected in the db but not in the AngularJS application.
Maybe try the following:
$scope.mark_sold = function(id, index) {
Car.update({
id : id,
status : 'S'
},
function(data) {
$scope.cars[id].status = 'S';
});
}
Problem
I currently have developed a table of content using AngularJS, the table will populate based on an Angular Service "Model" which invokes a web service and returns list and using ng-repeat and creating a table and all its content. Everything at the moment works fine, I have a minor problem though. Part of the table, we are outputting an action button which when clicked invokes a web service which update the current record. Am trying to make the record data gets updated automatically, but i must refresh the page in order to see the changes. Here is my code My app.js ``` angular.module('my_vehicles', ['vehicleServices', 'AccountsDirectives']); ``` service.js ``` 'use strict'; angular.module('vehicleServices', ['ngResource']). factory('Car', function($resource) { return $resource('/vehicle/api/car.json/:id', {}, { query: {method:'GET', isArray:false}, delete: {method:'DELETE', isArray:false}, update: {method:'PUT', isArray:false} } ); }); ``` controller.js ``` 'use strict'; function MyVehicleController($scope, Car) { var init = function() { $scope.page_has_next = true; $scope.cars = []; $scope.page = 1; }; // initialize values init(); Car.query({my_vehicle: true}, // success function(data) { $scope.page_has_next = data.has_next; $scope.cars = data.objects; }, // error function(data) { } ); $scope.mark_sold = function(id, index) { Car.update({ id : id, status : 'S' }, function(data) { }); } $scope.delete = function(id, index) { Car.delete( {id: id}, // on success function() { // remove the element from cars array and it will be // automatically updated by ng-repeat $scope.cars.splice(index, 1); $scope.loadMore(1); } ); } $scope.is_total_zero = function() { return !!($scope.cars.length) //return $scope.cars.length > 0 ? true : false } $scope.loadMore = function(limit) { if($scope.page_has_next) { $scope.$broadcast('loading_started'); console.log(limit); Car.query({my_vehicle: true, page: $scope.page, limit: limit}, // success function(data) { $scope.page_has_next = data.has_next; $scope.cars = $scope.cars.concat(angular.fromJson(data.objects)); $scope.page++; $scope.$broadcast('loading_ended'); }, // error function() { $scope.page_has_next = false; $scope.$broadcast('loading_ended'); } ); } } $scope.$on('loading_started', function() { $scope.state = 'loading'; }); $scope.$on('loading_ended', function() { $scope.state = 'ready'; }); } ``` and finally, my html code ``` <tr ng-repeat="car in cars"> <td><a href="{% ng car.get_absolute_url %}">{% ng car._get_model_display.make_display %} {% ng car._get_model_display.model_display %} {% ng car._get_model_display.trim_display %}</a></td> <td>{% ng car.created_at_format %}</td> <td>{% ng car.view_count %}</td> <td ng-model="car.status_label">{% ng car.status_label %}</td> <td> <div class="btn-group"> <button ng-disabled="car.status == 'S' || car.status == 'P'" ng-model="edit" class="btn btn-mini edit-btn">{% trans 'Edit' %}</button> <button ng-disabled="car.status == 'S'" ng-click="delete(car.id, $index)" class="btn btn-mini delete-btn">{% trans 'Delete' %}</button> <button ng-disabled="car.status == 'S' || car.status == 'P'" ng-click="mark_sold(car.id, $index)" class="btn btn-mini edit-btn">{% trans 'Mark as sold' %}</button> </div> </td> </tr> ``` P.S the {% ng XXX %} is outputting {{ XXX }}, am using the above syntax because django templating engine does not allow me to use {{}} so i've developed a templatetag that would output {{}} .. As mentioned earlier, my problem is that every time I invoke "mark as sold" it would invoke the cars.update() but it will not update the record displayed, must refresh to see changes. Any idea how i can solve this?
