I'm trying to setup angular in mu app with really basic code, but it keeps giving me the following error:
Uncaught ReferenceError: $scope is not defined
What I have is the following:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="test">
<head>
<!-- Other JS files here including jQuery!! -->
<script src="~/Scripts/angular.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<script src="~/Scripts/angular.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</html>
In app.js I have:
var blaat11 = angular.module('test', []);
blaat11.controller('TestController', [$scope, function ($scope) {
var aa = $scope.test;
}]);
But I'm getting the error I posted earlier. I want to inject services into my controller like that. I've done it before like this and never had any trouble with it.
Anyone any idea why it isn't working?
Wrap the $scope in quotes. This is used for mapping of the Dependency injections in case of minifying the code. As the $scope outside of the controller is not defined, the error is thrown.
blaat11.controller('TestController', ['$scope', function($scope) {

I just started with Angular and I'm little bit confused with this error.
I don't know exactly what I've done wrong, but my console is showing this error:
angular.js:38 Uncaught Error: [$injector:modulerr] http://errors.angularjs.org/1.5.8/$injector/modulerr?p0=app&p1=Error%3A%20%…(http%3A%2F%2Flocalhost%3A8080%2Flib%2Fangular%2Fangular.min.js%3A21%3A179)(…)
my html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en" ng-app="app">

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/app.min.css">
<script src="lib/angular/angular.min.js"></script>

<script src="js/app.js"></script>
<script src="js/controller.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
test
</body>
</html>
and my app.js:
(function() {
'use strict';
angular.module('app', [
'ngRoute',
'ngResource',
'mainController'
])
.config(['$routeProvider', function() {
routeProvider.when("/", {templateUrl: 'www/index.html', controller: 'mainController'})
}])
.controller('mainController', function($scope){
alert();
})
})();
what is wrong ?
The mainController is not a module but a controller inside your app module. So injecting mainController does not make sense here. Remove the mainController injection from your modules dependencies array.
The other dependencies, ngRoute and ngResources are modules which your module is depending upon - for eg, $routeProvider is from the ngRoute module, so in order to get routeProvider, you need to inject the ngRoute module as dependency.
You don't have to inject controller as a dependency to the module
Change,
angular.module('app', ['ngRoute','ngResource','mainController'])
To
angular.module('app', ['ngRoute','ngResource'])
DEMO
First and foremost, do not inject the controller as a dependency. Remember: you are registering it after you create the module, and adding it to that model. Thus, it would make no sense to inject it at the time of creating the module. It doesn't exist yet. Makes sense?
Then some stuff to make life easier for you: separate out your app config stuff from your controller registrations. Have an app.js for example doing the code below. Notice I separated the steps, and I also create a config function that I then call in the app.config. This is just a bit more readable in the JavaScript mess we have to deal with.
(function() {
'use strict';
var app = angular.module('app', ['ngResource']);
var config = function(routeProvider){
routeProvider.when("/", {templateUrl: 'www/index.html', controller: 'mainController'});
};
app.config(['$routerProvider'], config);
})
})();
Then have a mainController.js containing the controller code and the registration of it. It'll be more future-proof for when you start adding more controllers and services and so on. Also, don't use $scope, use 'this' instead, you can use that from version 1.5 I think. Only place when you need to use $scope because 'this' doesn't work there is in angular charts, just a heads up ;)
(function ()
{
'use strict';
var mainController = function ($scope,)
{
var vm = this;
vm.variable = "value";
};
angular.module('app').controller('mainController', ['', mainController]);
})();
Btw don't mind the strange indentation of the code snippets, the editor on this page is messing with me a bit ;)
I'm new to angular and am having trouble set my project up. I have tried everything I have seen on google and stackoverflow(please do not send link to similar question).. None have worked. Im using angular 1.5.5 and refer to the cdn. here is what my code looks like. Thanks!
<html ng-app="boatup">
<link href="css/one-page-wonder.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.5.5/angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.5.5/angular-route.js"></script>
<script src="js/app.js"></script>
<script src="js/controllers.js"></script>
</head>
<body ng-controller="mainCtrl">
</body>
//in app.js
var app = angular.module('boatup', [
'boatup.controllers',
'ngRoute'
]);
//in controllers.js
app.controller('mainCtrl', function($scope) {
console.log("hello");
});
The error is angular.js:38 Uncaught Error: [$injector:modulerr] in angular.js 38
Thanks for any help in advance.
Uncaught reference error in angular is caused when you are either using a module with no definition or the file with the module definition is not loaded in scripts. You have not declared the boatup.controllers module but added it as a dependency to your main module. Either declare and define boatup.controllers or remove it as a dependency as below:
angular.module('boatup', [
'ngRoute'
]);
Replace this with your code.
//in app.js
angular.module('boatup', [
'ngRoute'
]);
//in controllers.js
angular.module('boatup')
.controller('mainCtrl', function($scope) {
console.log("hello");
});
As far as I can see from your description, you've started your project with creating different files with your application's modules. That's a good descision. But!
You instantiated your main app's module and assigned it to global variable app. It's not that big deal, but better avoid creating unnecessary variable in global scope. And if you devine gloabl variable app in different files, it will be owerwritten with the last file loaded.
You must load your module with controllers before main module. Otherwise you'll get [$injector:modulerr].
So in your case the following solution will work.
controllers.js
angular.module('boatup.controllers', [])
.controller('mainCtrl', ['$scope', function($scope) {
console.log('hello');
}])
app.js
angular.module('boatup', ['ngRoute', 'boatup.controllers']);
And you need to load in appropriate order.

I've been trying to set up basic AngularJS functionality for a project but have been hitting a brick wall when it comes to including angular-route. Both are version 1.4.8. I'm currently using gulp-require to concatenate my JS, here's my main javascript file
// =require ../components/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js
// =require ../components/angular/angular.js
// =require ../components/angular-route/angular-route.js
$(document).ready(function() {
// =require app/app.js
}); // Doc ready is done!
And my app.js file
var app = angular.module('myApp', ['ngRoute']);
app.controller("ctrl", ["$scope", 'ngRoute', function($scope) {
$scope.test = "It works!";
}]);
I've checked and all the files are concatenating properly. The ng-app and ng-controller attributes are on my HTML file. I've tried adding and removing the ngRoute injection and switching the order of the files but to no avail. It's frustrating since I used Angular 1.4.5 in almost the exact same way without these issues popping up but I can't replicate the same here even when going back. But the {{test}} variable in my HTML is still not rendering, and basic operations like {{2 + 3}} aren't either.
EDIT: here is the link to the original error message I'm currently receiving: http://tinyurl.com/zx3k85f
EDIT 2: The parts of my HTML code that's calling the app and the controller:
<html lang="en" ng-app="myApp">
<body ng-controller="ctrl">
</body>
</html>
I'm using nunjucks for HTML dynamic generation, although I've changed the syntax for this so it doesn't conflict with Angular's double curly braces.
You can't inject module as dependency inside controller, you should remove 'ngRoute' from the controller DI inline array.
app.controller("ctrl", ["$scope", , function($scope) {
Update
Basically the real problem is you are loading your angular component script using requirejs(lazily), so while you are having ng-app="myApp" with module name start looking for myApp module, and the module has not loaded therefore it throws an error .
So I'd recommend you to don't use ng-app directive to start angular on page load. Instead you should wait until all the scripts related to angular loaded, & then to bootstrap angular app lazily using angular.bootstrap method.
Code
$(document).ready(function() {
requirejs(["app/app.js"], function(util) {
angular.bootstrap(document, ['myApp']);
});
});
ngRoute is a provider that needs to be configured in the module config section before being used. Using it within a controller does not make any sense. Here the version that will work:
angular.module('myApp', ['ngRoute']);
angular.module('myApp').controller("ctrl", ["$scope",function($scope) {
$scope.test = "It works!";
}]);
Moreover, you need to call your module using directive ng-app=myapp in the html element where you plan to render your app.
I'm working on angular tutorial and i'm having a problem on beginning. Loading myApp module throws error. As explained in tutorial, this should be one of three ways to create controller.
Here is print screen from tutorial i'm working on:
When i refresh web page i get this error in Chrome console:
Uncaught Error: [$injector:modulerr] Failed to instantiate module myApp due to:
Error: [$injector:nomod] Module 'myApp' is not available! You either misspelled the module name or forgot to load it. If registering a module ensure that you specify the dependencies as the second argument.
This is my HTML file
<html ng-app="myApp">
<head>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello world!</h1>
<div ng-controller="MainController">
{{ 2+2 }}
<br>
{{ val }}
</div>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.4.7/angular.js"></script>
<script src="app.js">
</body>
</html>
This is my app.js file
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', []);
var MainController = function($scope){
$scope.val = "Main controller variable value"
}
So what is my problem? I can't figure it out.
Thank you in advance
Module 'myApp' is not available! You either misspelled the module name or forgot to load it. If registering a module ensure that you specify the dependencies as the second argument.
Your original issue is due to the invalid script tag. Basically your script tag is not closed it needs to be closed in order for the browser to download the app.js file. Script tags are not self closing so it needs a closing tag.
<script src="app.js">
should be
<script src="app.js"></script>
Now once you fix that you will get into another error.
[ng:areq] Argument 'MainController' is not a function, got undefined
Since you are using the latest angular version, i.e anything >= 1.3.x needs the controller to be registered manually using the .controller construct. See here for more details.
Note - it is a bit confusing because the screenshot shows you using 1.2.0 (which does not necessarily needs explicit controller registration) but snippet in the question shown 1.4.x.
You should register a controller to the angular module myApp.
App.js
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', []);
myApp.controller('MainController', MainController );
var MainController = function($scope){
$scope.val = "Main controller variable value"
}
Basically what you were doing is correct but that code has been followed by the older version of AngularJS, The way you declared your controller is nothing but known as controller As function, which needs enable allowGlobals() method of $controllerProvider. Since Angular 1.3 + allowGlobals() method is disabled by adding below code, you could turn it on, to make your code working but it is not recommended way to do this.
Config
myApp.config(['$controllerProvider',
function($controllerProvider) {
$controllerProvider.allowGlobals();
}
]);
Refer same SO Answer here
Try this:
myApp.controller ("MainController",[$scope, function ($scope){
$scope.val = "Main controller variable value"
}]);
The ng-controller directive looks for the MainController in your MyApp module.
I'm getting error when adding ng-controller="HeaderController" to a div.
Error: ng:areq
Bad Argument
Argument 'HeaderController' is not a function, got undefined
my HTML looks like that:
<div ng-app="myApp">
<div ng-controller="HeaderController">
</div>
<div ng-controller="PostController">
</div>
</div>
Also I include following files:
MyApp.js
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', ['postServices', 'angularFileUpload', 'ngSanitize', 'ui.date', 'bootstrapLightbox', 'profileServices']);
HeaderController.js
myApp.controller('HeaderController', ['$scope', 'PostServices', '$http', function($scope, PostServices, $http) {
$scope.getBookmarksCount = function() {
PostServices.getBookmarksCount().then(function(response) {
if (response.data.status == 'success') {
$scope.bookmarksCount = response.data.bookmarksCount;
} else {
$scope.errorMessage = response.data.message;
}
})
};
}]);
PostController.js beggining of this file looks like:
myApp.controller('PostController', ['$scope', 'PostServices', '$http', 'FileUploader', 'Lightbox',function($scope, PostServices, $http, FileUploader, Lightbox) {
PostService.js contains a module named postServices and it contains a service PostServices:
angular.module('postServices', [])
.service('PostServices', ['$http', function($http) {
if I delete ng-controller="HeaderController" everything works fine.
Does anyone knows what could be the problem?
In your module you add the postServices without a capital at the start, while you add it in your headercontroller as PostServices. This might mess with the forming of your headercontroller.
Either one of those could be a typo, but it is very important that you inject the service precisely as it is defined (in your .service or .factory) in the ['PostService', bit. So if the service is called: postService, you should inject it in your controller as: ['postService, function(someNameThatDoesntMatter) if its called PostService, inject it as ['PostService', function(someNameThatDoesntMatter)
As I just shown, how you call it afterwards in the function parameter is up to you.
Update
You could create a module for your controllers to fix this. Make sure to inject your postServices in this module aswell. Then inject the controllers module in your myApp module :-) The benefit of working in a structured way like this, is that you can create a structure of including your JS which you can apply on every project you work on.
I don't know which version of Angular you use , I took 1.4.0 for my plunk example and try just to limit to the code you provide to see if I recreated the error.
I had to deal more with scripts inclusion order. It created error. The right order in order to make it work is
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
<script src="//code.angularjs.org/1.4.0/angular.js"></script>
<script src="MyApp.js"></script>
<script src="PostController.js"></script>
<script src="PostService.js"></script>
<script src="HeaderController.js"></script>
http://plnkr.co/edit/NhzQFmI1s9r98uAMZwYg
So Main point was to defined PostService.js before HeaderController
It seems likes
you forget include that HeaderController.js file in index.html.
Make sure your HeaderController.js is loaded properly.
