Reload service?

Open eyesurewould opened this issue 6 years ago • 1 comments

I'm using your angular-contentful-service and I find it really simple for basic retrieval. However, in a slightly more complex app, I retrieve a single Entry (via the getEntry function) using a url param defined in my routes but can't get fresh data as I navigate around. Here is how I define the route so you can see that "id" is a param.

export const appRoutes: Routes = [ { path: "project/:id", component: ProjectDetailComponent, runGuardsAndResolvers: 'paramsChange' }

When I navigate to a different "project" (meaning the route is updated to replace the "id" param), a call is made to the getEntry function again with the new id but the Entry content is never updated (so no call is made out to Contentful's CDN which I can verify by watching network traffic).

If I manually refresh the page, I can see the network call out to Contentful and the response and then my page shows the updated content.

Is there a way to force a call to getEntry to load fresh data? Or do I need to somehow destroy the service (or my component) and reload it? I'd much rather use your service versus making raw HTTP curl calls.

Thanks
