I am trying to store and retrieve my data on firebase using AngularJS. I have built so far an Ionic tabs project and created a custom controller and custom factory. I understand that it is a convention to retrieve the data in a factory and handle it through the controllers. However, I don't understand why my following code does not work:
services.js
angular.module('starter.services', ['firebase'])
.factory('OtherFriends', ['$firebase', function ($firebase) {
var ref = new Firebase("https://example1234.firebaseio.com/friendlist");
var sync = $firebase(ref);
var otherfriends = sync.$asArray();
return {
all: function() {
return otherfriends;
},
get: function(friendId) {
// Simple index lookup
return otherfriends[friendId];
}
}
}])
controllers.js
angular.module('starter.controllers', [])
// OTHER CONTROLLERS
.controller('OtherFriendsCtrl', function($scope, OtherFriends) {
$scope.otherfriends = OtherFriends.all();
})
tab-otherfriends.html
<ion-view title="OtherFriends">
<ion-content>
<ion-list>
<ion-item ng-repeat="otherfriend in otherfriends" type="item-text-wrap" href="#/tab/otherfriend/{{otherfriend.id}}">
{{otherfriend.name}}
</ion-item>
</ion-list>
</ion-content>
</ion-view>
app.js
angular.module('starter', ['ionic', 'starter.controllers', 'starter.services', 'firebase'])
// OTHER STANDARD IONIC CODE
.config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
// Ionic uses AngularUI Router which uses the concept of states
// Learn more here: https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-router
// Set up the various states which the app can be in.
// Each state's controller can be found in controllers.js
$stateProvider
// setup an abstract state for the tabs directive
.state('tab', {
url: "/tab",
abstract: true,
templateUrl: "templates/tabs.html"
})
.state('tab.otherfriends', {
url: '/otherfriends',
views: {
'tab-otherfriends': {
templateUrl: 'templates/tab-otherfriends.html',
controller: 'OtherFriendsCtrl'
}
}
})
// OTHER TABS
// if none of the above states are matched, use this as the fallback
$urlRouterProvider.otherwise('/tab/dash');
});

And the data in Firebase.io (imported .JSON file):
{"friendlist":[
{"firstName":"John", "lastName":"Doe"},
{"firstName":"Anna", "lastName":"Smith"},
{"firstName":"Peter", "lastName":"Jones"}
]}

I think you are facing some asynchronous data loading issue. I am not sure about the $firebase, but u just try
angular.module('starter.services', ['firebase'])
.factory('OtherFriends', ['$firebase', function ($firebase) {
var ref = new Firebase("https://example1234.firebaseio.com/");
var sync = $firebase(ref);
return {
all: function() {
return sync.$asArray();
},
get: function(friendId) {
// Simple index lookup
return otherfriends[friendId];
}
}
}])
OR
angular.module('starter.services', ['firebase'])
.factory('OtherFriends', ['$firebase', function ($firebase) {
var ref = new Firebase("https://example1234.firebaseio.com/");
return {
all: function() {
return $firebase(ref).$asArray();
},
get: function(friendId) {
// Simple index lookup
return otherfriends[friendId];
}
}
}])
