Log execution time of function/Ajax Call

Initialization of the variable to store all logs in controller

$rootScope.timeSlots = {};

//Function to create object with eventname , start time, end time using ID

$scope.logEvent = function(Eventid, EventName, isEnd){
    if(isEnd == false){
         $rootScope.timeSlots[Eventid] = {
            "name": EventName,
            "startDate":new Date().getTime()
         };
    } else {
        $rootScope.timeSlots[Eventid]["endDate"] = new Date().getTime();
    }
};
Log starting time 
$scope.logEvent("function1","Function1 start Time", false);

Angular/Ionic not updating an image src when ng-src is empty

The Angular ngSrc directive serves to properly set an image src via Angular. As anything in Angular, it updates the image as soon as the contained Angular expression changes. However, when the ng-src attribute is empty, Angular will not empty the src attribute. To overcome this, use the trick below.

<img ng-src="{{ element.image || '//:0' }}" />

Background

The ngSrc directive explicitly returns when the attribute value is false. As a workaround, set a "blank" image src when the image is empty. As somebody on Stackoverflow writes, //:0 serves this purpose: It adopts the current protocol, omits the hostname and sets the port to zero, which is invalid and should be killed by the network layer.

As a result, Angular should now correctly empty the src attribute when ng-src empties.

Change timeout for connection request in iOS

Code to change ajax request timeout for ios and also for hybrid(Cordova) apps.

Find NSURLRequest in your native code. Change the timeoutInterval value.

  NSURLRequest *request = [NSURLRequest requestWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:serverURL] cachePolicy:NSURLRequestUseProtocolCachePolicy timeoutInterval:15.0];

IONIC - data binding on header title not working

By using the new ion-nav-title directive in Ionic beta 14, the binding seems to work correctly.

Rather than

<ion-view title="{{content.title}}">

Do this

<ion-view> <ion-nav-title>{{content.title}}</ion-nav-title>

Works a treat.
