Grid with auto refresh html + Angularjs

Well I have a grid and it needs to be ALWAYS updated because it contains information that needs to be updated dynamically.

This grid is populated with a Rest flame that returns me a json. I need the grid updated as soon as the json of the Rest call has some change.

In my case to handle the data of json and place on the grid I am using Angularjs and populating with an ng-repeat. Today I’m taking the updates with a 1 second setInterval... but this is not cool, because if I have to put some checkbox on this grid, I will not be able to check because as updates 1 in 1 second would always return to the state of FALSE.

Would you have any solution? I don’t know how the websites that "broadcast" football games work... but it’s kind of like this. I wanted to know how they do to add or remove grid lines without having to refresh the grid or the whole scope.

My JS:

 var app = angular.module("teste", []);



 app.controller("GridController", ['$scope', '$http', function (ng,
 $http) {

     ng.locations = [];

    setInterval(function() {
             $http.get("http://testechamarest.com:18888/json").success(function
 (dados) {
               ng.locations = $.map(dados, function (dev) {
              return dev;
            });

 }, 1000); ]);

New problem: When I change the time of updates, for example: put 3000(3 sec) the page takes 3 seconds to open... in the current house is taking 1 sec to open... my logic when doing this must be all wrong... but I do not know what I could improve. :(

Take a peek at the Meteor - I think you’ll like it.

Answering my own question!

I did it this way:

var app = angular.module("teste", []);

app.controller("GridController", ['$scope', '$http', function (ng,
$http) {

//Crio uma flag 'local_data'
 var local_data = null;
 ng.locations = [];

setInterval(function() {
         $http.get("http://testechamarest.com:18888/json").success(function (dados) {

        //Utilizo o stringfy para verificar se tem alguma alteração nos dados do json   para atualizar a grid, se caso tiver atualiza a grid.. se não não! :D
    if(local_data != JSON.stringify(dados)) {
            local_data = JSON.stringify(dados);

           ng.locations = $.map(dados, function (dev) {
          return dev;
        });
    }

  }, 1000); ]);

And that’s how I solved the problem hehe.. did not know about Stringify, I simply compared the two variables, data and my flag and always returned false even with changes... turning into Stringify I convert my entire json into a string and so can compare if there are changes. Thank you community!

I think you should read the data, compare row by row and update the columns that have not been touched by the user (in case of editable fields and checkboxes

Yeah, that would be a good thing... but don’t you think for a one-in-a-second check that would be too heavy? Thinking that the grid may have 100 lines in the future.

when you need to use a timer, use the $timeout and $interval services, which suit the $Digest angular cycle. it is strange that the angular can update the screen like this.

and if the service supports data return from a condition, for example, "only if there are changes since such date", the implementation would be more elegant.

Take a look at Websocket, the problem is that it only works in newer browsers and it’s still a bit precarious, but I think it’s more or less what you need.

Regarding your grid, I don’t know how the library that you use works, but there must be a method that inserts new lines instead of refreshing the whole thing

I use this Bible here http://www.dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxGrid/samples/15_navigation/01_pro_keymap_access.html

Very complete even in the free version

Example of use

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
    <head>
        <script type="text/javascript">
            var JSON_que_estou_usando = {};

            function WebSocketTest() {
                if ("WebSocket" in window) {
                    alert("WebSocket is supported by your Browser!");
                    // Let us open a web socket
                    var ws = new WebSocket("ws://localhost:9998/echo");
                    ws.onopen = function() {
                        // Web Socket is connected, send data using send()
                        ws.send("Message to send");
                        console.log("Message is sent...");
                    };
                    ws.onmessage = function(evt) {
                        var received_msg = evt.data;
                        console.log("Message is received...");

                        //faz a verificação
                        if(JSON_que_estou_usando.stringify == received_msg.stringify){
                            //adiciona linhas na grid
                        }
                    };
                    ws.onclose = function() {
                        // websocket is closed.
                        console.log("Connection is closed...");
                    };
                }
                else
                {
                    // The browser doesn't support WebSocket
                    alert("WebSocket NOT supported by your Browser!");
                }
            }
        </script>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div id="sse">
            <a href="javascript:WebSocketTest()">Run WebSocket</a>
        </div>
    </body>
</html>

I saw this example here and just added a few lines in the "onmessage" method. This should do what you need

I hope it helps
