I am using the $resource service in angularjs to asynchronously load json content from the server. When the content is loading I show a gif loader on the page. I need to know when the ansyncronous request is complete so I can remove the loader. How can I catch the ready event so I can remove the loader? 

function PlaylistController($scope, $route, $http, Song,Artists,Albums,Drive,Children){
    function render(){
        $scope.songs = Song.list()

        //Obviously this removes the loading class immediately
        //I want to remove it when Song.list() is complete
        $('body').removeClass('loading');
    }

    $scope.$on("$routeChangeSuccess", function($currentRoute, $previousRoute){
    //When the route changes,update the $scope variables
    render();
});

    You shouldn’t do DOM manipulation inside of controller.

    What about $scope.loading = true and <body ng-class="loading && 'loading'">?

    When you set $scope.loading to true the loading class will be added to body, when set to false it will be removed.

    If you need to change it from child controllers put it inside of an object(like $scope.data.loading = true) or create functions to change it like $scope.startLoading = function(){ $scope.loading = true; }
