I'd like to implement a setup where i can define a "root state" in the main module, and then add child states in other modules. This, because i need the root state to resolve before i can go to the child state.
Apparently, this should be possible according to this FAQ: How to: Configure ui-router from multiple modules
For me it doesn't work: Error Uncaught Error: No such state 'app' from ngBoilerplate.foo
Here is what i have:
app.js
angular.module( 'ngBoilerplate', [
'templates-app',
'templates-common',
'ui.state',
'ui.route',
'ui.bootstrap',
'ngBoilerplate.library'
])
.config( function myAppConfig ( $stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider ) {
$stateProvider
.state('app', {
views:{
"main":{
controller:"AppCtrl"
}
},
resolve:{
Auth:function(Auth){
return new Auth();
}
}
});
$urlRouterProvider.when('/foo','/foo/tile');
$urlRouterProvider.otherwise( '/foo' );
})
.factory('Auth', ['$timeout','$q', function ($timeout,$q) {
return function () {
var deferred = $q.defer();
console.log('before resolve');
$timeout(function () {
console.log('at resolve');
deferred.resolve();
}, 2000);
return deferred.promise;
};
}])
.run(function run( $rootScope, $state, $stateParams ) {
console.log('greetings from run');
$state.transitionTo('app');
})
.controller( 'AppCtrl', function AppCtrl ( $scope, Auth ) {
console.log('greetings from AppCtrl');
});
foo.js
angular.module( 'ngBoilerplate.foo', ['ui.state'])
.config(function config( $stateProvider ) {
$stateProvider
.state( 'app.foo', {
url: '/foo/:type',
views: {
"main": {
controller:'FooCtrl',
templateUrl: function(stateParams) { /* stuff is going on in here*/ }
}
}
});
})
.controller( 'FooCtrl', function FooCtrl( $scope ) {
console.log('deferred foo');
});
How do i make this work or what other approaches could i take to have something global resolved before every state (without defining a resolve on each state)?
I finally chose this approach which does the job for me:
// add all your dependencies here and configure a root state e.g. "app"
angular.module( 'ngBoilerplate', ['ui.router','templates-app',
'templates-common','etc','etc']);
// configure your child states in here, such as app.foo, app.bar etc.
angular.module( 'ngBoilerplate.foo', ['ngBoilerplate']);
angular.module( 'ngBoilerplate.bar', ['ngBoilerplate']);
// tie everything together so you have a static module name
// that can be used with ng-app. this module doesn't do anything more than that.
angular.module( 'app', ['ngBoilerplate.foo','ngBoilerplate.bar']);
and then in your app index.html
<html ng-app="app">
