In my Ionic project, I am utilizing a plugin to create a carousel (https://github.com/ksachdeva/angular-swiper). The demo of this plugin includes a simple repeat function. However, when I replaced the default repeat with my own using $http, it caused an issue where there is a delay in loading the images, leading to the slider breaking until it is resized. Here is how the HTML structure looks:
<ks-swiper-container autoplay="500" initial-slide="1" speed="5000" loop="false" show-nav-buttons="false" slides-per-view="2" space-between="20" pagination-clickable="false" override-parameters="{effect: 'coverflow',coverflow: {rotate: 0,stretch: 0,depth: 100,modifier: 1,centeredSlides: true,slideShadows : false}}" on-ready="onReadySwiper(swiper)">
<ks-swiper-slide class="swiper-slide" ng-repeat="feature in featured track by feature.id">
<img imageonload="" ng-src="{{feature.thumbnail_images.thumbnail.url}}" width="100%">
<h6 ng-bind-html="feature.title"></h6>
</ks-swiper-slide>
<ks-swiper-slide class="swiper-slide">
<img src="img/more.png" style="transform: rotate(180deg);" width="100%">
<h6>Read More</h6>
</ks-swiper-slide>
</ks-swiper-container>
The images are fetched from my factory using the following approach:
.controller('SwipeCtrl', function($scope, Featured) {
$scope.swiper = {};
$scope.onReadySwiper = function (swiper) {
swiper.on('slideChangeStart', function () {
});
swiper.on('onSlideChangeEnd', function () {
});
};
$scope.featured = [];
Featured.all().then(function (response,swiper){
$scope.featured = response;
for (var i =0; i < $scope.featured.length; i++) {
$scope.featured[i].date = new Date($scope.featured[i].date);
}
},
function (err) {
if(window.localStorage.getItem("featured") !== undefined) {
}
}
);
})
I attempted to use $timeout without success. After some research, I came across a suggestion to create a directive:
.directive('imageonload', function ($rootScope, $timeout) {
return {
restrict: 'A',
link: function(scope, element, attrs) {
element.bind('load', function() {
$timeout(function(){
$rootScope.swiper.updateSlidesSize();
});
});
}
};
});
Despite implementing the directive, I consistently encounter the error "updateSlidesSize() is undefined". At this point, I'm uncertain about how to resolve this issue...
