cancel previous request #26

Closed sandeep-rajbhandari closed 8 years ago

sandeep-rajbhandari commented 8 years ago

In your example of "Remote fetching with custom service" as i start writing the name of country it sends requests for every new letter typed.The request is as follows: search?text=n
search?text=ne
search?text=nep search?text=nepa
search?text=nepal So what needs to be done if I want to cancel previous remote fetching request with new request requested?

Hi @sandeep-rajbhandari, I don't know if I've totally understand your question. When you type some text in the selector - using any remote configuration - you send a request anytime the input changes. Doing that, you'll be able to perform filtering in your backend system. You can't cancel previous requests, but you can delay your requests and then accept just the last one, something similar to debounce for text input.

I'm going to close this, since it could be achieved by using input debounce.

@indrimuska

I think @sandeep-rajbhandari is trying to request for debounce property as we discussed earlier. Request will only send after we stop writing. Debounce period should be custom in ms like debounce = 1000 will watch typing, if not get any event of typing within 1 second then call request.

Angular providing this as n-model-options, You can find it here debounce.

FYI latest release v1.3.10 has a new debounce property.
