read a local file in angular js

[rangil...@gmail.com]

Hi,

what is the best way to read a local file and search for a string and display it in the 

browser using angularjs? is it by using a directive?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

What do you need, you want your use to be able to drop an file into your app or what?

Reading the local file system from within the browser is impossible. (well, for a web-app it is)

Hi.

Actually the file can be local or remote. Can i use the $http service to read the

file contents and then display the filtered contents? I don't need to do drag and

drop

Thanks in advance

Yes, you can use it . It is the code i used:

       obj.getCustomers = function(){

return $http.get("data/data.xml");

}

        services.getCustomers().then(function(data){

var source = x2js.xml_str2json(data.data);

angular.forEach(cartItems,function(value,key){

var item = ($filter('filter')(source.data.item, {id: value }));

shopItems.push(item[0]);

});

$scope.shopItems = shopItems;

});

You should seek some integration with Java applets, activex...

hi Jayashree,

You can't read local files with $http. Only remote is possible (you can make local files remote, by starting a http-server) If you are developing an desktop(like) app have a look at nw. If you google around a bit, you will find plenty alternatives for both of these.

Hi,

As I am quite new to angular js I have not understood the code sent by bao dinh.

Could someone spoon feed me and give me the model, view and controller code

from scratch for searching for a string in a file and displaying it's contents

Thanks
