$goQuery is only returning a single value

Question

I have a scope model called person that has a firstname, lastname and fullname. My goQuery works with this:

$scope.person = $goQuery('person', { userName: $scope.person.findme }, { sort: { 'userName': 'asc' }, limit: 1 }).$sync();

The only problem I'm having is that it only populates the value for the field I'm searching and not the whole model. What am I missing?

Answer 1

$scope.person.findme throws an error because $scope.person is not yet defined. I'm not sure how this is working at all.

Here's a working example:

$scope.person = $goQuery('person', 'person', { userName: 'user1' }, { sort: { 'userName': 'asc' }, limit: 1 }).$sync();

$scope.person.$add({ userName: 'user1', fname: 'a', lname: 'b'});
$scope.person.$add({ userName: 'user2', fname: 'c', lname: 'd'});
$scope.person.$add({ userName: 'user3', fname: 'e', lname: 'f'});
window.person = $scope.person;

If you look at the model on window.person you should see user1's ID and their data under it.

Ok. Thank you Colin MacDonald. This is how you return results into your scope: HTML CODE:

 <label>Find User:</label>
    <input type="text" ng-model="person.findme" placeholder="Enter Full Name to Search..." />
    <input type="button" id="Find" value="Search" ng-click="Find()" />

JAVA SCRIPT:

 $scope.Find = function () {
  console.log('entering find method...')
  $scope.person = $goQuery('person', { userName: $scope.person.findme }, { limit: 1 }).$sync();
       $scope.person.$on('ready', function () {
            var id = $scope.person.$$index[0];
                if (!id) {
                   // no results found
                   return;
                }
       $scope.person = $scope.person[id];
                       $scope.person.id = id;
       });
       };
