hi i'm beginner in angular, i want to know why i'm getting an empty array when i call it out of my service, this is my code :

 var app = angular.module("myModule", ['ngResource']);


   app.controller("myController", function ($scope,$http,$log,myService) {


    $scope.users = []:

     myService.query(function(data) {

        $scope.users=data;

       // all is fine, the length is 10 obj
        console.log("users in: "+$scope.users.length);

      });

     //here i want to use my $scope.users array but the length is 0
     console.log("users out: "+$scope.users.length);


});

any idea on how to deal with this issue thanks in advance.

Are you seeing `users out` appear before `user in` in the log? – segFault Jul 09 '16 at 22:56
You can't do that... `$resource` uses ajax which is asynchronous. You have to use the data in the callback. You are trying to eat a pizza before it is actually delivered – charlietfl Jul 09 '16 at 23:01
hi @sebastianForsberg , exactly i see the users out before the user in – James Jul 09 '16 at 23:13
@charlietfl , please do you have an example on how to use the data in the callback – James Jul 09 '16 at 23:16
really depends on what you are trying to do – charlietfl Jul 09 '16 at 23:29
thank you @charlietfl for your time , i want to do something like that : var mydata = $scope.users; – James Jul 09 '16 at 23:35
why? You already have $scope.users – charlietfl Jul 09 '16 at 23:38
