Angular Factories
GOALS
- primary objective: move all of the view independent logic into the factory so that the controllers have only the functions and data required for managing the $scope that each controller manages
- refactor the player controller so that it uses a player factory
- skip the view stuff as much as possible
- skip stats factory as much as possible
- set up an album factory that uses $http
MAIN PROBLEMS:
how is the main ctrl communicating with album ctrl? via rootScope. that's how
now we want to make it so that both of these scopes are talking to a factory?
roadmap
1. pause whats playing now
2. switch current song
3. switch song list
4. load
5. play (resume)
Pause is just a proxy for the pause method on the audio object
Load is also a proxy method
because it wraps the load method on the audio object
1. resume is also a proxy method because it wraps the play method on the audio object
2. perhaps worth noting that we could set an even on 'play'
3. so resume and pause just toggle isPlaying
moveTo needs a reference to the object we're returning so we need to name that object and return it instead of returning an anonymous object
take next and previous from controllers
get Progress just returns progress
but we still have to modify progress
to do that we need to copy event listeners from controllers
TO FIX PROGRESS
1. grab timeupdate and ended from our controllers
2. modify them: remove scope
remove 100, inject rootScope, fac.next()
NOW MODIFY CONTROLLER
convert toggle, forward, back, getCurrentSong, getProgressand isPlaying to use PlayerFactory and everything else can be removed
NOW ALBUM CONTROLLER
1. inject PlayerFactory into controller
2. rewrite $scope.start ---> we need to bind
What Album CTRL should Look like
CHANGE HTML
modify html
1. getProgress
2. start(song, album)
INDEX HTML
1. isPlaying
2. getCurrentSong
IT WORKS!!!
ONE LAST THING: lets create an albumFactory so we can get $http out of our albums controller
remember to add this factory to index.html
IT WORKS!!!
