Just starting out with AngularJs and attempting to set up multiple routes with different $http requests. I'm facing an issue where the page content loads late after a route change.
I've come up with a workaround, but I feel like there might be a better solution out there. Any advice would be appreciated.
Note: Using AngularJs version 1.6 and ui router.
main.js
var asTwl = angular.module('asTwl', ['ui.router']);
asTwl.controller('generals', function($scope, $http, $timeout){
$scope.pageLoader = false;
$scope.getPageData = function(path, postData, obj){
$scope.pageLoader = true;
$http({
method: 'post',
url: path,
data: postData,
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' }
})
.then(function(response) {
if (response.data) {
$scope.data[obj] = JSON.parse(response.data);
$timeout(function(){
$scope.pageLoader = false;
}, 100)
}
})
.catch(function(e) {
new Error('Error: ', e);
throw e;
})
}
});
asTwl.controller('homePage', function($scope, $http){
var postData = {
//data...
}
$scope.getPageData('path', postData, 'home')
})
asTwl.controller('singlePage', function($scope, $http, $stateParams){
var postData = $stateParams;
$scope.getPageData('path', postData, 'page')
})
asTwl.controller('categoryPage', function($scope, $http, $stateParams){
var postData = $stateParams;
$scope.getPageData('path', postData, 'category')
})
asTwl.config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider, $locationProvider){
$urlRouterProvider.otherwise('/');
$stateProvider
.state('home', {
url: '/',
templateUrl : 'templates/pages/home.html',
controller : 'homePage'
})
.state('info', {
url: '/info/:id',
templateUrl : 'templates/pages/info.html',
controller : 'singlePage'
})
.state('category', {
url: '/category/:type/:id',
templateUrl : 'templates/pages/category.html',
controller : 'categoryPage'
})
});
Appreciate any guidance you can provide!
