AngularJS not refreshing ngRepeat when updating array

by

You are modifying the scope outside of angular’s $digest cycle 50% of the time.

If there is a callback which is not from angularjs; (posibbly jquery). You need to call $apply to force a $digest cycle.
But you cannot call $apply while in $digest cycle because every change you made will be reflected automatically already.

You need to know when the callback is not from angular and should call $apply only then.

If you don’t know and not able to learn, here is a neat trick:

var applyFn = function () {
    $scope.someProp = "123";
};
if ($scope.$$phase) { // most of the time it is "$digest"
    applyFn();
} else {
    $scope.$apply(applyFn);
}
