How to get a confirmation or callback from angularjs-rails-resource on create(), update()

Question

I'm using AngularJs Rails Resouce and was wondering if there was a callback for when you successfully create/update a resource using the create() or update() methods.

For instance, here's my code:

$scope.createPage = function () {
    var page = new Page({
        title: $scope.pageTitle,
        content: $scope.pageContent,
        published: true
    });
    if (page.create()){
        $scope.showAlert('Page created successfully', 'success');
    } else {
        $scope.showAlert('There was a problem creating the page.', 'warning');
    }
}

But that doesn't work. Even if the API is not available, the success message is created.

Any ideas?

You should use the promise look at Using resources:

$scope.createPage = function () {
    var page = new Page({
        title: $scope.pageTitle,
        content: $scope.pageContent,
        published: true
    });

    page.create().then(function (results) {
        console.log(results);
        $scope.showAlert('Page created successfully', 'success');
    }, function (error) {
        console.log(error);
        $scope.showAlert('There was a problem creating the page.', 'warning');
    });
}
