I am new in Angular, I need to implement a function that returns true/false, I going to use the return in canActivate guard, but this function consumes a api by http.get, so like the communication is asynchronous this function always return FALSE, because http.get yet is in process.
My class guard:
canActivate(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, state: RouterStateSnapshot): boolean {
let url: string = state.url;
if (this.loginService.isLoggedIn()) {
return true;
}
this.loginService.redirectUrl = url;
this.router.navigate(['login']);
return false;
}
and function isLoggedIn()
isLoggedIn() {
let logged: boolean = false;
this.http.get('api/values', this.httpService.headers())
.map((res: Response) => {
logged = res.json();
});
return logged;
}
I read many questions, but I don't found the answer.
guard typings says it can return
Observable<boolean>, Promise<boolean> or boolean
so change isLoggedIn to:
isLoggedIn() {
return this.http.get('api/values', this.httpService.headers())
.take(1)
.map((res: Response) => res.json());
}
update
canActivate(route: ActivatedRouteSnapshot, state: RouterStateSnapshot): boolean {
let url: string = state.url;
return this.isLoggedIn().map(loggedIn => {
if(!loggedIn) {
this.loginService.redirectUrl = url;
this.router.navigate(['login']);
}
return loggedIn;
}
}
