Hi, I am new to AngularJs and NodeJS. I am trying to build a AngularJS chat application using NodeJs Express Websocket. I tried to find the examples for my reference but of no use. I am not able to print the messages to the chat container but I am able to print the message to the console. Can someone help me with your idea or expertise. HTML code to print messages: <div ng-repeat="message in messages"> <div class="sentmessage"> <span class="username">{{ message.from }}:</span> {{ message.msg }} </div> </div>
JS file code:
$scope.messages = [];
ws.onmessage = function (message) {
var json = angular.fromJson(message.data);
$scope.messages.push(message.data);
};
And also can you help me with how to update the chat messages to the DOM when response is received, without refreshing the page.

I saw your message: here is a sweet website which can help you to build your application.
Ok, you will not use angular, only node.js in order to build the project presented on the course but I think it can help you get started with your application.
Cheers.
