Angular4 Observable to Array

Question

I need to fetch some data from Observable object for using in SEO (change meta title && description).

I get data from API via HTTP. Data got in Observable object.

I succeed somehow to convert Observable object by subscribing to this.radio$, but this causes double request of function getRadioData(slug: string).

Probably I need to convert Observable object to Array.

radio-details.component.ts (HERE I WANT TO get meta_title && meta_description variables for SEO)

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { RadioDetails, RadioService } from './../services/radio.service';
import { Router, ActivatedRoute, ParamMap } from '@angular/router';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';


@Component({
  selector: 'app-radio-details',
  templateUrl: './radio-details.component.html',
  styleUrls: ['./radio-details.component.css'],
  providers: [RadioService]    
})

export class RadioDetailsComponent implements OnInit {
  radio$: Observable<RadioDetails[]>;
  
  constructor(
    private route: ActivatedRoute,
    private router: Router,
    private service: RadioService    
  ) { }

  ngOnInit() {

this.route.paramMap
.switchMap((params: ParamMap) =>
  this.service.getRadioData(params.get('slug'))
)
.subscribe(
  (data)  => {
    this.radio$ = data;
    console.log("this.radio$ IS: ", this.radio$)
    // HERE I WANT TO get meta_title && meta_description variables for SEO
    // this.radio$ looks like: Object { _isScalar: false, source: Object, operator: Object } 
  }
);   
  }
}

radio.service.ts

import { Injectable } from '@angular/core';
import { Http } from '@angular/http';
import 'rxjs/add/operator/map';

export class Categories{
  constructor(
    public title: string, 
    public items: Radio[]
  ){}
}

export class Radio{
  constructor(
    public title: string, 
    public slug: string, 
    public external_url?: string, 
    public isplay?: string,
    public css_class?: string    
  ){}
}

export class RadioDetails{
  constructor(
    public title: string, 
    public player_type?: string,
    public stream?: string, 
    public meta_title?: string,
    public meta_description?: string
  ){}
}

@Injectable()
export class RadioService {
  constructor(private _http: Http) { }

  getAllRadiosData(){
    return this._http.get('http://api.2net.co.il/radio/stations/all_stations.php')
    .map(res => res.json())
  }

  getRadioData(slug: string){
if (slug !== null && typeof slug !== 'undefined' && slug){
      return [
    this._http.get('http://api.2net.co.il/radio/stations/station.php?slug='+slug)
    .map(res => res.json())
  ];
}
  }
}

radio-details.component.html

<article class="page page-radio-detail">
  
      <div *ngIf="radio$ | async as radio; else noRadioFound">

this.radio$: Object { _isScalar: false, source: Object, operator: Object } — Adam Pery

AFAIK, to use async pipe you have to return an Observable, no need to return an array — msmani

After you guys helped me the solution is:

1. In radio.service.ts no need return Array in the function getRadioData(slug: string). The right function code must be:

getRadioData(slug: string){
    if (slug !== null && typeof slug !== 'undefined' && slug){
      return this._http.get('http://api.2net.co.il/radio/stations/station.php?slug='+slug)
      .map(res => res.json());
    }
  }

2. The implementation of radio$ in radio-details.component.html must be without pipe (|). Right section code must be:

<div *ngIf="radio$ as radio; else noRadioFound">
...
</div>

After all in radio-details.component.ts I got simple and readable Object like {mate_description: "some meta description", meta_title: "some_meta_title", stream: "http://example.com"}

ngOnInit() {
    
    this.route.paramMap
    .switchMap((params: ParamMap) =>
      this.service.getRadioData(params.get('slug'))
    )
    .subscribe(
      (data)  => {
        this.radio$ = data;
        console.log("this.radio$ IS: ", this.radio$)
        // this.radio$ - is a readable Object
      }
    );   
  }
