I'm trying to write an AngularJS client side only app.
I thought I might be able to load it from chrome by typing in the address bar:
file:///C:/path/to/project//index.html
I also tried to invoke chrome with the flag --allow-file-access-from-files
Unfortunatly nothing happened - just the busy sign on the tab name is working.
Why does is not loading my app?
I'm using the following code:
index.html:
<!doctype html>
<html ng-app="app">
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/angular.js/1.2.16/angular.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/angular.js/1.2.16/angular-route.js"></script>
<script src="app.js"></script>
<title></title>
</head>
<body style="background-color: white;">
<h1>Index</h1>
<a id="link" href="/login">Go to login</a>
<ng-view></ng-view>
</body>
</html>
app.js:
angular.module('app', ['ngRoute']).
config(function($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider.
when('/', {controller: HomeCtrl, templateUrl: 'app.html'}).
when('/login', {controller: LoginCtrl, templateUrl: 'login.html', resolve: function() {}}).
otherwise({redirectTo:'/'});
});
function HomeCtrl($scope) {
$scope.numbers = [1,2,3,4,5];
}
function LoginCtrl($scope) {
}
app.html:
<div ng-controller="HomeCtrl">
<ul ng-repeat="number in numbers" >
<li>{{number}}</li>
</ul>
</div>
Edit:
2 possible solutions:
As far as I know google chrome does not allow javascripts to be run from file system. But I did a quick google search and found this. Might be useful Link
On the flipside you can use firefox. Firefox doesn't have such restrictions as far as I know
Try changing the following lines:
<script type="text/javascript" src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/angular.js/1.2.16/angular.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/angular.js/1.2.16/angular-route.js"></script>
to
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/angular.js/1.2.16/angular.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/angular.js/1.2.16/angular-route.js"></script>
I think since you're using a file-based way to get at index.html, it's assuming the //
also points to a local system resource. By specifically indicating http://
, it will look at the actual locations.
