AngularJS 1.8: how to to Use ng-if with ng-repeat for Conditional Rendering Based on Async Data
After trying multiple solutions online, I still can't figure this out. After trying multiple solutions online, I still can't figure this out... I'm having trouble with Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue that's driving me crazy. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here, but I'm working with an scenario where I'm trying to conditionally render elements within an `ng-repeat` using `ng-if` based on some asynchronously fetched data. The question arises when the data is fetched; the corresponding items do not update the DOM as expected. Specifically, I'm fetching user roles from an API and want to display a list of users only if they have a role of 'admin'. Here's a snippet of my code: ```html <div ng-controller="UserController as ctrl"> <ul> <li ng-repeat="user in ctrl.users" ng-if="user.role === 'admin'"> {{ user.name }} </li> </ul> </div> ``` In my controller, I'm using `$http` to get the user data as follows: ```javascript angular.module('myApp', []) .controller('UserController', function($http) { var vm = this; vm.users = []; $http.get('/api/users') .then(function(response) { vm.users = response.data; }); }); ``` The async call works fine, and I see the data in the console log. However, when I inspect the DOM, the `<li>` elements for users with the role 'admin' are not being rendered. I also checked that the user data structure is correctly formed with properties. I've tried using `$timeout` to force a digest cycle after setting `vm.users`, but that didn't resolve the scenario. I also ensured that `ng-if` is not being affected by any other directives or filters. I keep getting the same output without any behavior messages in the console. Any insights into what might be causing this behavior and how I could resolve it? For context: I'm using Javascript on Linux. This is part of a larger application I'm building. Thanks in advance! Has anyone dealt with something similar? This is my first time working with Javascript LTS. Is there a simpler solution I'm overlooking? I'm using Javascript 3.9 in this project. Cheers for any assistance!
