How to wait for subscribe to finish Angular 5?

问题

I am working on an Angular 5 app. I get an error because I have a function that executes before another function is done, hence getting a null variable. I have tried to use .map and .subscribe with Observable, but didn't succeed. Here is the code:

loadData is called from my app.component class:

ngOnInit() {
    this.dataService.loadData(sessionStorage.getItem(...);
}

While that function executes, another function from data.component class (dataService.getData) is called on initialization:

constructor(private dataService: DataService) {}

ngOnInit() {
    this.dataTxt = this.dataService.getData(...);
}

Here is the data.service class:

loadData(... : void) {
    if (sessionStorage["data"] == null {
        this.http.request(...)
        .map((response: Response) => response.json()).subscribe(data => {
            ...
            sessionStorage.setItem("data", JSON.stringify(this.data));
            ...
        }
    }
}

getData(... : string){
    if (this.data == null) {
        this.data = JSON.parse(sessionStorage["data"]);
    }
    ...
}

The problem is that sessionStorage["data"] is null until loadData() is done and I get this error a few times:

ERROR SyntaxError: Unexpected token u in JSON at position 0
    at JSON.parse (<anonymous>)

I understand that if I want to wait for subscribe to finish, I have to put the code that need to wait (getData()) just after the subscribe call. But the function that needs to wait is called from other classes so how do I put it there?

回答1:

you're mistaken that you'd put your code "after" the subscribe handler, you'd need to put it INSIDE of the subscribe handler, but regardless,

you need to use a subject of some kind here, probably a ReplaySubject in this particular case...

private dataSource = new ReplaySubject(1) // create a private subject
data$ = this.dataSource.asObservable() // and a public observable

loadData(... : void) {
    if (sessionStorage["data"] == null {
        this.http.request(...)
        .map((response: Response) => response.json()).subscribe(data => {
            ...
            sessionStorage.setItem("data", JSON.stringify(this.data));
            this.dataSource.next(data) // set the data in the subject
            ...
        }
    }
}

then you'd subscribe to the subject in your component...

ngOnInit() {
    this.dataService.data$.pipe(first()) // avoid memory leak.
      .subscribe(data => this.dataTxt = data);
}
