Ionic Framework hide tabs on specific page

Question

I am using ionic framework and I've created a new tab application.

What I need to do is to have a page as default or home page that doesn't have the tabs and then all the rest to have the tabs as normal.

Like a landing page.

How can I do this?

Answer 1

In recent ionic versions, this is easily achieved by setting

$ionicTabsDelegate.showBar(false);

Sample Code:

.directive('hideTabs', function($rootScope, $ionicTabsDelegate) {
  return {
    restrict: 'A',
    link: function($scope, $el) {
      $scope.$on("$ionicView.beforeEnter", function () {
        $ionicTabsDelegate.showBar(false);
      });
      $scope.$on("$ionicView.beforeLeave", function () {
        $ionicTabsDelegate.showBar(true);
      });
    }
  };
})

Plunker Demo

First define a separate $stateProvider for landing or default page [I think you already defined a $stateProvider for other pages] in app.js.The app.js file should be like this,

app.js

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

app.config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
  $stateProvider
    .state('tabs', {
      url: '/tab',
      controller: 'TabsCtrl',
      templateUrl: 'tabs.html'
    })
    .state('tabs.home', {
      url: '/home',
      views: {
        'home-tab': {
           controller: 'homeCtrl',
          templateUrl: 'home.html'
        }
      }
    })  
    .state('tabs.settings', {
      url: '/settings',
      views: {
        'settings-tab': {
           controller: ' signOutCtrl',
          templateUrl: 'settings.html'
        }
      }
    });
     $stateProvider
        .state('landing', {
            url: '/landing',
            controller: 'landingCtrl',
            templateUrl: 'landing.html'
    });

  $urlRouterProvider.otherwise('/landing');
});

Also create a html page for tabs.

tabs.html

<ion-view title="Home">
    <ion-nav-buttons side="left">
        <button class="button button-icon button-clear ion-navicon" ng-click="openMenu()"></button>
    </ion-nav-buttons>
    <ion-tabs class="tabs-icon-top tabs-positive">
        <ion-tab title="{{tab1Title}}" icon="ion-home" href="#/tab/home">
            <ion-nav-view name="home-tab"></ion-nav-view>
        </ion-tab>
        <ion-tab title="{{tab2Title}}" icon="ion-gear-a" href="#/tab/settings">
            <ion-nav-view name="settings-tab"></ion-nav-view>
        </ion-tab>
        <ion-tab title="{{tab3Title}}" href="#/landing" icon="ion-log-out">
        </ion-tab>
    </ion-tabs>
</ion-view>

Also you need to hide <ion-nav-bar> in your landing page by using hide-nav-bar="true ".

landing.html

<ion-view hide-nav-bar="true ">
    <ion-nav-buttons side="left">
        <button class="button button-icon button-clear ion-navicon" ng-click="openMenu()"></button>
    </ion-nav-buttons>
    <ion-content padding="true">
        <h1 style="text-align: center;">Welcome To Landing Page</h1>
        <a class="button icon-right ion-chevron-right button-calm" ng-click="open()">Lets Go</a>
    </ion-content>
</ion-view>
