I want define a controller when use module:

angular.module('todoList', [], function () {

}).controller('myCtrl', function ($scope) {
    return function ($scope) {
        $scope.todos = [
            {
                text: "Hello"
            }, {
                text: "World"
            }
        ]
    }

})

then I want use the module and the ccontroller:

<div ng-controller="myCtrl" ng-app="todoList">  
        <li ng-repeat="todo in todos">
            <span>{{todo.text}}</span>
        </li>>
</div>

Answer 1

Official Docs:

http://docs.angularjs.org/guide/controller

Syntax:

var myApp = angular.module('myApp',[]);

myApp.controller('GreetingController', ['$scope', function($scope) {
  $scope.greeting = 'Hola!';
}]);

Answer 2

Your controller is wrong, there is no need to have a return function.

angular.module('todoList', [], function () {

}).controller('myCtrl', function ($scope) {

        $scope.todos = [
            {
                text: "Hello"
            }, {
                text: "World"
            }
        ]
})
