I always get Cannot get /stock/new. Looks like I didn't set this route in express route. How angularjs's route working with express's route?
<a href="/stock/new">
<i class="icon-text-width"></i>
<span class="menu-text"> Add New Stock </span>
</a>
var aomaika = angular.module('aomaika', []);
app.js
aomaika.config(['$routeProvider', function ($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider
.when('/stock/new', { templateUrl: 'partials/new.html', controller: 'StockNewCtrl'})
.when('/', { templateUrl: 'partials/index.html', controller: 'DashboardCtrl'})
.otherwise({redirectTo: '/'});
}]);
In the server side (as you said express side) I don't think you need any routes. AngularJS is purely running in client side. Assuming all your AngularJS files are stored under 'app' folder, then in server side you can host them with app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/app'));, and that's all.
The anchor should be
<a href="#/stock/new">

I have a gulp connect server running and want to remove hashbangs from the routeProvider I am using in my AngularJS project.
I have this in my app.js:
//Setting HTML5 Location Mode
companiesApp.config(['$locationProvider',
function ($locationProvider) {
$locationProvider.hashPrefix('!');
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
}
]);
I know that if I remove the hashPrefix it will work still with http://www.example.com/#example-uri but how do I get rid of that entirely. isn't html5Mode(true) supposed to do that?
Yes, $locationProvider.html5Mode(true); should do that.
But to be able to access pages directly from the browser, you should configure your server to redirect the request to the index page, then call the partial internally. Check this document on angular-ui documentation for how to configure the document to do so.
Try this if may be useful in your scenario
Add only has prefix like $locationProvider.hashPrefix('') to remove Bang prefix...
var app = angular.module('app', []);
app.config(['$routeProvider', '$locationProvider',
function ($routeProvider, $locationProvider)
{
$routeProvider.when('/', {
templateUrl: "app1.html",
controller: "App1Ctrl"
})
.when('/Program1', {
templateUrl: "app2.html",
controller: "App2Ctrl"
});
$locationProvider.hashPrefix("");
}
]);
first add $routeProvider in dependency and then add in last of hashPrefix is null
to remove tha bang prefix.
I try set up client side route with Angular and Express 4.
I worked with guide ngView and without Express that's good, but when Express routing is enable ngRoute don't work. How can I setup Express that it work with ngRoute?
A little bit of code:
var app = angular.module('app', ['ngRoute']);
app.config(['$routeProvider', '$locationProvider',
function($routeProvider, $locationProvider) {
$routeProvider
.when('/category/:catgegoryName', {
templateUrl: 'category',
controller: 'categoryController',
controllerAs: 'category'
})
.when('/category/:catgegoryName/device/:deviceName', {
templateUrl: 'device',
controller: 'deviceController',
controllerAs: 'device'
})
.otherwise({
redirectTo: '/'
});
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
}
]);
Since you configured HTML5 mode you don't need to replicated the same route structure on the Express side. Instead you need to make sure server always responds with landing page (usually index.html) where Angular app is configured and bootstraped.
So it will be that for say route /category/something server still responds with index.html. Then Angular will parse URL and understand that it need to inject template and controller corresponding to .when('/category/:catgegoryName', {...}) route.
I am converting a large server rendered app to use Angular. Because of the size, we are doing it a bit at a time. During this conversion period, part of the app will use Angular and part will not. This means that routing sometimes will route within the Angular app and sometimes it will need to transition from old world to new world (easy) or new world to old world (harder).
Ideally, I would like to specifically route some page transitions within the Angular app (new world) to the proper controllers but then any other page transitions should just fetch new HTML pages (old world).
I can't seem to figure out how to do this. I think I need to use the routeProvider and when / otherwise, but there isn't a lot of documentation that I found which is helpful.
You can't use routeProvider for the old world, since angular routes only direct you within the actual same page.
You could make a placeholder angular route for each legacy route, then in the controller, inject $window and do something like:
$window.location.href = destinationUrl;
Something like: (go to the old world on logout)
app.controller('LogoutCtrl', function ($scope, $window) {
var destinationUrl = 'https://mywebsite.com/';
$window.location.href = destinationUrl;
});
Vice versa, to go back to the angular world, just use a normal link to your angular route:
Link
If you want a catch-all route to redirect to the outside, you can do the following:
otherwise({
controller: 'NotFoundCtrl'
});
...
app.controller('NotFoundCtrl', function($scope, $location, $window) {
var path = $location.path();
$window.location.href="http://test.com" + path;
})
As triggerNZ said, you can always have a controller redirect unhandled routes to the outside. Here is the HTML and Javascript showing how to do it.
HTML
<div ng-app="myApp">
<script type="text/ng-template" id="this.html">
This Page.
</script>
<script type="text/ng-template" id="that.html">
That Page.
</script>
<div>
<ul>
<li>This</li>
<li>That</li>
<li>Other</li>
</ul>
<ng-view></ng-view>
</div>
</div>
Javascript
var app = angular.module("myApp", ['ngRoute']);
app.config(function ($routeProvider, $locationProvider) {
$routeProvider.when('/this', {
templateUrl: 'this.html'
}).when('/that', {
templateUrl: 'that.html'
}).otherwise({
template: "<div></div>",
controller: function ($window, $location, $rootScope) {
if (!$rootScope.isInitialLoad) {
$window.location.href = $location.absUrl();
}
}
});
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
});
app.run(function ($rootScope) {
$rootScope.$on('$routeChangeSuccess', function() {
$rootScope.isInitialLoad = (typeof $rootScope.isInitialLoad === "undefined");
});
});
I'm trying start developing angular apps with yeoman. It may sounds stupid, but I have a problem with creating routes using yo:angular route.
When I create new route using:
yo:angular route foo
yeoman creates:
app/scripts/controllers/foo.js (controller)
app/views/foo.html (view)
app/test/spec/controllers/foo.js (testing the controller)
in app.js it creates:
.config(function ($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider
.when('/', {
templateUrl: 'views/main.html',
controller: 'MainCtrl'
})
.when('/foo', {
templateUrl: 'views/foo.html',
controller: 'FooCtrl'
})
.otherwise({
redirectTo: '/'
});
});
so everything should work fine. Unfortunately the route doesn't work - when I try open
http://localhost:9000/foo
I get following error:
Cannot GET /foo
The idea of routes in yeoman looks pretty easy and I'm not sure where the problem is.
Did you enable HTML5 mode in your Angular application? If not, the URL would be:
http://localhost:9000/#/foo
And if you have enabled HTML5 mode in your Angular application, you have to make sure whatever server you're using has been configured to handle all routes as they were the root of the application.
I know you guys are going to say "It's duplicated" but it doesn't work for me.
I'm doing exactly the same thing and here's what happens.
This is my config code:
portfolioApp.config(function($routeProvider, $locationProvider) {
$routeProvider
.when('/home', {
controller: 'portfolioController',
templateUrl: 'partials/home.htm'
})
.otherwise({redirectTo: '/home'});
if(window.history && window.history.pushState){
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
}
});
The URL without the locationProvider and setting path to "/" instead of "/home" would be:
http://localhost:8080/portfolio/#/
Okey, i would like to remove the hashtag and the "portfolio" path so that way it would be:
http://localhost:8080/home
With the config i've posted, it does it (the first time i refresh). But what happens? happens that if I refresh the page again with the new path... i get a 404 Tomcat Error.
In the first refresh when i write localhost:8080/portfolio and the path gets converted into "/home", I get in the console an error saying that the "partials/home.htm" can't be found 404.
So either way, it can't read my partial, and then when I refresh everything is broken.
How can I solve this? what am I doing wrong?
Make sure your including these to scripts in the header of your HTML document Where you are implementing your module. The two provided below are for implementing the most current version of angular as well as the most current version of the angular route script:
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.3/angular.js"></script>
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.3/angular-route.js"></script>
Make sure your injecting ngRoute into your module, here's an example of mine:
angular.module('controller', ['ngRoute','ngResource', 'ngCookies', 'ngSanitize'])
Here is an example of my config block, make sure you inject both routeProvider and locationProvider:
.config(['$routeProvider', '$locationProvider', function ($routeProvider, $locationProvider){
$routeProvider
.when('/', {
templateUrl: '../partials/member.php',
controller: 'Member',
access: 'member'
})
.when('/leaderboard', {
templateUrl: '../partials/leaderboard.html',
controller: 'Leaderboard',
access: 'member'
})
.otherwise({
redirectTo: '/'
});
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
}])
If your doing all of this and it still doesn't work post a plunker of your code. Thanks.
