Currently, I am working on a project called "hello world" and it involves two HTML pages named "configuration.html" and "add configuration.html". Each page has its own controller defined as follows:
angular.module('MissionControlApp').controller('ConfigController', ConfigController);
angular.module('MissionControlApp').controller('AddConfigController', AddConfigController);
Both controllers share some common properties, which are:
function ConfigController($routeParams, ConfigFactory, $window){
var vm = this;
vm.status;
vm.projectId = $routeParams.projectId;
vm.selectedProject;
vm.configurations;
vm.selectedConfig;
vm.selectedRecords;
vm.filteredConfig;
vm.newFile;
vm.fileWarningMsg = '';
vm.addFile = function(){
var filePath = vm.newFile;
var encodedUri = encodeURIComponent(filePath);
vm.fileWarningMsg='';
ConfigFactory
.getByEncodedUri(encodedUri).then(function(response){
var configFound = response.data;
var configNames = '';
var configMatched = false;
if(response.status === 200 && configFound.length > 0){
//find an exact match from text search result
for(var i = 0; i < configFound.length; i++) {
var config = configFound[i];
for(var j=0; j<config.files.length; j++){
var file = config.files[j];
if(file.centralPath.toLowerCase() === filePath.toLowerCase()){
configMatched = true;
configNames += ' [' + config.name + '] ';
break;
}
}
}
}
if(configMatched){
vm.fileWarningMsg = 'Warning! File already exists in other configurations.\n' + configNames;
} else if(filePath.length > 0 && filePath.includes('.rvt')){
var file1 = { centralPath: filePath };
vm.selectedConfig.files.push(file1);
vm.newFile = '';
} else{
vm.fileWarningMsg = 'Warning! Please enter a valid file.';
}
}, function(error){
vm.status = 'Unable to get configuration data: ' + error.message;
});
};
I have noticed that AddConfigController requires the same functionality for addFile(), so I simply copied and pasted the code. However, being familiar with C#, I believe there could be a more efficient way to handle this by utilizing class inheritance and extending from the ConfigController. Can this be achieved in Javascript?
If this question seems basic or straightforward, I apologize as JavaScript is still somewhat of a mystery to me.
function AddConfigController($routeParams, ConfigFactory, $window){
var vm = this;
vm.status;
vm.projectId = $routeParams.projectId;
vm.selectedProject = {};
vm.newConfig = {};
vm.newFile;
vm.fileWarningMsg = '';
vm.addFile = function(){
var filePath = vm.newFile;
var encodedUri = encodeURIComponent(filePath);
vm.fileWarningMsg='';
ConfigFactory
.getByEncodedUri(encodedUri).then(function(response){
var configFound = response.data;
var configNames = '';
var configMatched = false;
if(response.status === 200 && configFound.length > 0){
//find an exact match from text search result
for(var i = 0; i < configFound.length; i++) {
var config = configFound[i];
for(var j=0; j<config.files.length; j++){
var file = config.files[j];
if(file.centralPath.toLowerCase() === filePath.toLowerCase()){
configMatched = true;
configNames += ' [' + config.name + '] ';
break;
}
}
}
}
if(configMatched){
vm.fileWarningMsg = 'Warning! File already exists in other configurations.\n' + configNames;
} else if(filePath.length > 0 && filePath.includes('.rvt')){
var file1 = { centralPath: filePath };
vm.selectedConfig.files.push(file1);
vm.newFile = '';
} else{
vm.fileWarningMsg = 'Warning! Please enter a valid file.';
}
}, function(error){
vm.status = 'Unable to get configuration data: ' + error.message;
});
};
