Small utility to track angular http requests to get notified on completion and timeouts. Example use case is a loading bar that appears while requests are pending. Easy configurable debounce delay, request timeout and url blacklisting or whitelisting.

## Installation

For installation use the [Node Package Manager](https://github.com/npm/npm):

```
$ npm install --save @korbiniankuhn/angular-http-observer
```

or clone the repository:

```
$ git clone https://github.com/KorbinianKuhn/angular-http-observer
```

## Getting Started

Import the ```HttpObserverModule``` and add it to your imports list. Call the ```forRoot``` method. Be sure you use the ```HttpClientModule``` as the observer works with an ```HttpInterceptor```.

```typescript
import { HttpObserverModule } from '@korbiniankuhn/angular-http-observer';
import { HttpClientModule } from '@angular/common/http';

@NgModule({
  bootstrap: [AppComponent],
  imports: [
    // ...
    HttpClientModule,
    HttpObserverModule.forRoot()
  ]
})
export class AppModule {}
```

Subscribe to the events of the ```HttpObserverService```:

``` typescript
export class LoadingBarComponent implements OnInit {
  private showLoadingBar = false;

  constructor(private httpObserver: HttpObserverService) {}

  ngOnInit() {
    httpObserver.isPending.subscribe((groupName) => {
      this.showLoadingBar = true;
    });

    httpObserver.hasFinished.subscribe((groupName) => {
      this.showLoadingBar = false;
    });
  }
}
```

## Options

You can configure the observer with following options. By default a delay of 200ms and no timeout is set.

``` typescript
// ...
HttpObserverModule.forRoot({
  whitelistedRoutes: ['foo.com', /bar.com/],
  blacklistedRoutes: [/localhost/],
  delay: 0,
  timeout: 10000
})
```

The observer can have multiple request groups with different settings, to observe different requests across components. By default a requestGroup with the name ```default``` is created. A ```requestGroup``` inherits and overwrites the global options.

``` typescript
// ...
HttpObserverModule.forRoot({
  whitelistedRoutes: ['foo.com', /bar.com/],
  blacklistedRoutes: [/localhost/],
  delay: 0,
  timeout: 10000,
  requestGroups: [{
    name: 'localhost',
    whitelistedRoutes: [/localhost/],
    blacklistedRoutes: null,
    timeout: 2000
  }]
})
```

## Events

The following events are emitted by the observer.

``` typescript
/ ...
httpObserver.isPending.subscribe((groupName) => {
  console.log(groupName);
  // default

  if (groupName === 'custom') {
    console.log('show my custom loading bar');
  }
});

httpObserver.hasFinished.subscribe((groupName) => {
  console.log(groupName);
  // default
});

httpObserver.timedOutRequest.subscribe((object) => {
  console.log(object);
  // { requestGroupName: 'default', url: 'localhost', timeout: 2000 }
});

httpObserver.delayedResponse.subscribe((object) => {
  console.log(object);
  // { requestGroupName: 'default', url: 'localhost', timeout: 2000, duration: 3629 }
});
```

## Testing

First you have to install all dependencies:

```
$ npm install
```

To execute all unit tests once, use:

```
$ npm test
```

To get information about the test coverage, use:

```
$ npm run coverage
```
