[rt-users] Angular web page breaks when I try to access it from the local/html directory of RT 4.4.2

[Keith Creasy]

Hi. I'm still stumped. Here is a function that fails. It's in the angular controller. It works if the page that includes it is outside RT but failes when within RT... I commented out everything but the essential code.

function getTableData(data) {
console.log(data);
//	var tickets = rt.parseForNumbers(data);
var tickets = {1: 'ticket/1'};
// line 174...
angular.forEach (tickets, function (value, key) {
console.log(key+", "+value);
});
}


The error is-

SyntaxError: illegal character
rt-progress.js:174:25

It is the comma ',' in line 174.

Does anyone have any clues?

Thanks.

Keith

Thanks Shawn. It is good to know at least that this could work. My problem is that the error I'm getting in the web-development console is pretty useless. It may be difficult to figure out just what's going wrong when I try to access it from the local/html directory in RT.


I am including the script like this, <script src="https://tech.aph.org/~keith/rt-progress.js. Obviously RT should not be touching this.


As I mentioned before, we have a similar page that includes a script in just the same way that works. The new angular.js version fails.


Another possible resolution would be if I can catch the "Not logged in" message and then call RT to let the user log in and use my page as the "tangent". I don't know how to do that or even if there is a way.


Thanks.

Keith

I’ve done some prototyping with Angular (1.x) within RT’s UI and I don’t recall having any particular problems.

We are eager to release a new REST API with JSON support, but as of right now it’s still in the works.

RT certainly shouldn’t be mangling scripts in any case!
