  Great article - I endede up doing precisely the same when implementing a large app a year ago. The approach also has the bonus advantage that you now get to use your database im a promise chain.. I myself was caught with my pants down when our db connection resources kept running out.... read more »

• Canceling RxJS Observables With ngOnDestroy In Angular 2 Beta 6

  Posted on Mar 14, 2016 at 1:04 PM

  @Ben, Agree, the async pipe is best for lists of data. The beautiful thing is that you don't have to worry about unsubscribing to streams on component destruction. About the one object data.... I often expose an Observable containg one value ( a BehaviourSubject). For example in my wrapper for t... read more »

• Canceling RxJS Observables With ngOnDestroy In Angular 2 Beta 6

  Great article as always. I wonder how the mechanism is when using the "async" pipe in the template. Imho this is a nice construction, so you don't have to do a myObservable.subscribe..

  Yes, Observables are more complex, but also more efficient and gøactually make your components much simpler The fact that information is pushed to subscribers, rather than components pulling for data is mindblowing at first. But once you 'get' it, it's so much more elegant and fast. If your sub... read more »

• Attribute Directive Selectors And Outputs Cannot Have The Same Name In AngularJS 2 Beta 1

  Posted on Jan 30, 2016 at 6:36 AM

  Great article. I think it's a good practise not to name directive attributes the same as the directive. Component directives _can_ have attributes of same name and I think that makes more sense. Side question: are you planning to use es6 or Typescript? The syntax is so nice :) I am aware that pa... read more »
