I have a service written that sends some data to an API request. However, i need to call it multiple times depending on how many checkboxes a user clicked. What is the best way to do this? I was looking into Observables forkJoin method but am not sure how to implement it.
Here is how i currently call the service (without loop):
this.myService.update(id, data).subscribe(
data => {
console.log('Data: ', data);
},
error => { console.log('Error: ', error }
);
Okay i found a way to do it:
let observables = new Array();
for( let id of ids ) {
observables.push(this.myService.update(id, data));
}
Observable.forkJoin(observables).subscribe(
res => console.log(res),
error => console.log('Error: ', error)
);
Basically i made an array of the service i needed to execute in parallel and then passed it to forkJoin. When all the observables are complete, the response is passed into the res argument of the subscribe method.
idsin an array that i need to loop over and call this service method in it.
