Infinite Scroll allows you to query data on the fly based on a user's scroll position, which is generally a better user experience than traditional pagination, and it's also easier for you as a developer to implement.
In this episode, we're going to build an infinite scroll feature in Angular 4 using Firebase on the back end.
To speed up the development process, we're going to use a package called n g x infinite scroll.
This will allow us to listen to as well as to throttle the scroll event, which is very useful when making our queries to Firebase.
You can install it by running npm install n g x infinite scroll.
And you can include it in your app module or whichever module is using it.
The module itself exports a directive which we can use in the HTML.
We'll get into this more later, but basically it listens for the scroll event on the window and then sends a scroll event that we can listen for.
At this point, let's start building the service.
It only has one responsibility, and that's to pull data from Firebase in this movies collection, which It's just a simple collection with some data about each movie.
So we can start by injecting the AngularFire database, and then we'll create a function to get movies.
The first argument is the batch size, and that's how many items we wanna pull for each query.
The last key argument is optional, and that represents the key from the previous set of records that we pulled.
Firebase doesn't have an equivalent to SQL's offset clause, so we need to pass it a specific key that tells it where to start the next query.
So if we get the last key as an argument, then we'll set it as the start app property before sending this query to Firebase.
So with that done, now we can start building the component, And we'll actually get started in the HTML first.
We're going to loop over the movies just like any other observable by passing it the async pipe.
Then underneath that loop, we'll create a div that has that infinite scroll directive that we looked at earlier.
The main thing to look at here is the infinite scroll throttle, which is 1,000 milliseconds or one second.
Then there's the scrolled event, which will emit when the user scrolls down on the page.
The reason we wanna throttle this event is because we'll actually be sending the Firebase query when this event goes off.
If we didn't throttle it, it'd be sending the same redundant query to Firebase every couple milliseconds, switch wouldn't be good.
And as a final touch, we'll add a loading spinner when there's still data left to be loaded and a notification message once we've reached the end of the database.
So now let's put this all together in the TypeScript.
We're going to need the movie service as well as a behavior subject and the lodash library.
We're going to use the behavior subject to replace a Firebase list observable.
This allows us to concatenate each new batch of data together as opposed to re querying the old data along with the new data each time.
The next variable we set is the batch, which is just the size we want for each query.
Then the last key is just the Firebase push key to offset the next query.
Then finished is a boolean that will tell us whether or not the database has any data left in it.
During ng on init, we'll load the initial data, and then we can call the same function in the on scroll event handler as well.
The purpose of GitMovies is to query data and then concatenate it to the existing behavior subject.
The first thing we'll do is see if the finished variable to true.
And if so, we'll just return null.
Otherwise, we'll try to make a query to the database.
So we'll call the movie service dot get movies.
Then we add one extra item to the batch.
And the reason for this is we need that extra item teases the key for any anticipated upcoming queries.
Then we can use the do operator to run some arbitrary code whenever this observable is subscribed to.
So the first thing we'll do is set the last key to that extra item that we queried.
And then once that's set, we can just slice it off the array using the Lodash slice operator.
So we just want the first 2 out of the 3 items we queried, so we pass it the array with 0 as the starting index and then the batch size is the ending index.
The cool thing about behavior subjects is you can just call get value to get whatever value is currently in that subject.
So we'll set that to the current movies variable, Then we'll see if the last key in each of these two arrays is identical.
And if so, we'll know we've reached the end of the database, and we can just flag that finished variable as true.
And the final step is to just update the value of the behavior subject itself, and we do that by concatenating the current movies to the new movies that we just queried.
And finally, to execute this code, we call take 1 because we only need to run this once and then call subscribe.
Now if we go back to the app we can see that whenever we scroll down the scrolled event fires in the console and it also loads the new movies from Firebase.
When there's no more data to load, it stops showing the loading spinner and instead shows that message that we've reached the end.
That's it for Angular 4 and Firebase.

So
so
we'll
we'll

Then
then
we

Then
then
we'll
we'll

In this video, the speaker explains how Infinite Scroll allows for query data on the fly based on a user's scroll position, which is better for developers. They then proceed to build an infinite scroll feature in Angular 4 using Mmx infinite scroll, which allows for listening to and responding to a scroll event. They also discuss the movie service and behavior subject, which allows for updating the value of the behavior subject and adding a loading spinner when there is no more data to load. Finally, they discuss updating the value of the behavior subject and thank the audience for watching.
