Alert box is popping up twice?

ionic-v1
1

I’m trying to display an alert popup box when my function fails to load a http.get request.

Initially the alert popup box was popping up 3 times. So i added a variable called popupShow = false and put the alert box inside a if(!popupShow) statement and called popupShow = true once the alertbox as been excuted. Now the alertbox pops up twice. I’m unsure why it is doing this.

$scope.doRefresh = function() {
  $http.get('')
    .success(function(data) {
      $scope.data = data;
      window.localStorage.setItem("data", JSON.stringify(data));
    })

    .error(function() {
    if(!popupShow){
      $ionicPopup.alert({
          title: 'Internet Connectivity',
          template: 'Some features will be limited'
        })
      popupShow = true;
    }
      $ionicLoading.hide()
      if(window.localStorage.getItem("data") !== undefined) {
        $scope.data = JSON.parse(window.localStorage.getItem("data"));
      }
    })

    .then(function() {
      $ionicLoading.hide()
    });
  }

inspect your requests beeing sent.
Maybe your doRefresh-function is called multiple times… and if the function is called parallel -> you get the popup twice because popupShow is for both false

Thank you, I’ve fixed the problem now. It was because I was calling my controller twice.
