I'm making a code to fetch content from contentful using AJAX. I've success retrieve data and display it, but something is not quite what I want. Because the content that I get is not in the same order as the contentful cms, so I add another field called sequence
. So in my code I added a sort()
and Object.keys()
function before forEach()
, but there is no error and data not appears ,does anyone know why data not appears?
If you want to try debugging, you can look at This Codepen.
function renderContentBySection(sectionName, appendElement, numberOfSkeleton, elementAttribute, elementClass){
$.ajax({
url : 'https://cdn.contentful.com/spaces/r5mgd95bqsb5/environments/master/entries/1bI13SpZBBvgOgIk4GhYEg?access_token=CVel_r57GUqeTeaLyIsseXEAM1z1f-spXNKR-a2-huA',
type: 'GET',
success: function(data){
const getData = data.fields
if(getData[sectionName]) {
if(getData[sectionName] && getData[sectionName].length) {
getData[sectionName].forEach((item, index) => {
getSingleEntry(item.sys.id)
});
}
}
}
});
}
function getSingleEntry(contentId){
$.ajax({
url : `https://cdn.contentful.com/spaces/r5mgd95bqsb5/environments/master/entries/${contentId}?access_token=CVel_r57GUqeTeaLyIsseXEAM1z1f-spXNKR-a2-huA`,
type: 'GET',
success: function(dataKat){
getAssetData(dataKat.fields.image.sys.id, dataKat.fields.sequence)
$('.data-banner').append(JSON.stringify(dataKat.fields, null, 4))
$('.data-banner').append('<br>');
}
});
}
function getAssetData(assetsId, sequenceId){
$.ajax({

Because you completely changed the criteria, I will provide an answer for your second ask.
The key to working with multiple batches of asynchronous requests is to gather all the requests, and then listen for them all to complete. Then, do the same thing again with the next batch of requests.
Otherwise, your HTML will print in the order the responses are returned and it will seem random.
Once you have gathered all the completed requests, you can sort()
them, then do a forEach
through them.
function listenForEntries(arrAllEntryRequests) {
//set up a listener for when all requests have finished, using "spread operator" (...) to send all requests as parameters to when():
$.when(...arrAllEntryRequests).done(
//done:
function (...arrAllEntryResponses) {
let arrAllEntries = [];
//console.log("arrAllEntryResponses", arrAllEntryResponses);
arrAllEntryResponses.forEach((e) => {
arrAllEntries.push(e[0].fields);
});;
//all images loaded, sort:
arrAllEntries.sort((a, b) => (a.sequence < b.sequence ? -1 : 1));
//sorting done, get asset data for each. This is also asyncronous so you need to do the same thing as above:
let arrAllAssetRequests = [];
arrAllEntries.forEach((entryData) => {
//console.log("entryData", entryData);
$('.data-sequence').append(`
<ul>
<li>
Sequence ID: ${entryData.sequence}<br>
Title Banner: ${entryData.title}
</li>
</ul>`)
let assetReqObj = getAssetData(entryData.image.sys.id, entryData.sequence);
arrAllAssetRequests.push(assetReqObj);
});
listenForAssets(arrAllAssetRequests);
}
);
}
function listenForAssets(arrAllAssetRequests) {
$.when(...arrAllAssetRequests).done(
//done:
function (...arrAllAssetResponses) {
//all assets loaded, sort:
arrAllAssetResponses.sort((a, b) => (a[2].sequence < b[2].sequence ? -1 : 1));
arrAllAssetResponses.forEach((assetData) => {
//console.log("assetData", assetData);
if(assetData.length > 0) {
$('.data-assets').append(`
<ul>
<li>
Sequence ID: ${assetData[2].sequence}<br>
Title Banner: ${assetData[0].fields.title}<br>
<img class="img-fluid" src="${assetData[0].fields.file.url}">
</li>
</ul>`);
} else {
console.error("Something wrong with assetData", assetData);
}
});
}
);
