I am using CKEditor 4 in an AngularJS app. I have a directive for CKEditor which sets the editor options
angular.module('someMod', []).directive("ckeditor", CKEditor).factory('someFactory',someFactory);
...etc...
CKEditor.$inject = ["someFactory"];
function CKEditor(someFactory) {
...and in the link function the editor options includes...
extraPlugins: 'myplugin'
Now if I put the custom plugin definition into the link function it works fine because it can reference someFactory no problem. But I want to put all the "myplugin" code into a separate plugin file. And this works fine except when it tries to reference someFactory it fails.
Edit ------
The factory is constructed as follows
someFactory.$inject = ['$http', '$log', ...];
function someFactory($http, $log, ...) {
return {
someFunction: someFunction,
...
};
function someFunction() {
// do some stuff
return 1;
}
Anyone know how to make someFactory available to the CKEditor plugin?
A factory must return an object. If it has not been setup properly that could cause the issue you are experiencing. Would require a more complete example to troubleshoot.
I found a way to do this. I declare a global variable like
var angularObject = {};
Then in the CKEditor directive link function I add
angularObject = someFactory
to create a reference to the factory that was injected into the directive. Then in the plugin code I can say something like
angularObject.someFunction

I have configurations.js file which having
var configurationModule = angular.module('configuration', ['restangular', 'notification']);
configurationModule.factory('clientConfigSvc', function (notificationMgr, $interpolate, $injector) {
function getConfig(configKey) {
return getNestedPropertiesByString(activeEnvironment, configKey);
}
}
and having another javascript file with below code
angular.module('ds.coupons').factory('CouponsREST', ['Restangular', 'SiteConfigSvc', 'settings',function (Restangular, siteConfig, settings, configurationModule) {
configSvc.getConfig('services.baseUrl'); /// need to call this function
}
Actually i want function configSvc.getConfig inside second angular factory
Yes After tired of trying lots of solution, today morning working on moving train got idea to fix, dont know if its correct way but its working. but still looking for correct fix if mine was not correct as per angularjs practise.
Here is my solution.
1. I added configuration module in app.js alogn with other
window.app = angular.module('ds.app', [
'restangular',
'ui.select',
'ui.router',
'ds.shared',
'ds.utils',
'ds.i18n',
'configuration']);
I added clientConfigSVC in my factory where i want to use configuration function
angular.module('ds.coupons')
.factory('CouponsREST', ['Restangular', 'SiteConfigSvc','settings', 'clientConfigSvc',
function(Restangular, siteConfig, settings, clientConfig) { }
and then inside CouponsREST factory with function clientConfig.getConfig() i am getting value
At first I searched a lot about this question, used some suggestions but couldn't get results.
I had one js file, main.js, where there was only one controller and everything worked fine:
var app = angular.module('monitoringApp', ['ui.bootstrap', 'ngCookies', 'angularCharts','angularUtils.directives.dirPagination','ngLoadScript','ngRoute','dragtable']);
app.controller('mainController', ['$scope', '$http', '$cookies', '$cookieStore' , '$location', function($scope, $http, $cookies, $cookieStore,$location) {
//some function which i need to call;
}
I've added a library for drag and drop table columns dragtable.js and inside dragEnd() function I want to call some function inside main.js
var project = angular.module("dragtable", []);
project.directive('draggable', function($window, $document) {
function dragEnd($event) { need to call function inside main.js }
}
Please note that I already tried to use shared service but still getting error undefined on the function which is called.
It doesn't really matter in which file you're storing the functions. That said, a directive is unlikely to be what you're looking for as a directive is mainly used to be linked to an html element like a widget. Think of it as the controller in the MVC model scheme. It where you can have interaction from/to the ui from the coding standing point. But you can't really call a directive function directly if you don't have access to a directive.
A service on the other hand is just a singleton object that can be injected in a controller or in other places.
What you want is probably this:
project.factory('draggable', function () {
function dragEnd($event) { ... }
return dragEnd
})
And inside your main module:
app.controller('mainController',
[
'$scope'
, '$http'
, '$cookies'
, '$cookieStore'
, '$location'
, 'draggable'
, function(
$scope
, $http
, $cookies
, $cookieStore
, $location
, draggable
) {
//here you can call draggable
}]
)
Here you can see that the draggable function aka dragEnd is injected in the controller. This is good if you want to use this common function for multiple handler but then you might need to bind the function to an object like this:
var draggable = draggable.bind(someobj)
Or use it with apply or call
draggable.call(someobj, event)
draggable.apply(someobj, [event])
The reason to do that is that if you want to acces this from within the function when it's called, it might not be what it you expect it to be depending on how you're actually calling the method.
Also one note regarding your directive... You always have to return something. In you case chances are that you created the factory but didn't return anything. For this reason you had the "undefined" error. If you don'T return anything the factory will create and delete the function when it's run.
I am new in angular js. I am working with web Sql in a test project for learning purpose. My insert operation is working fine. My problem is when i fetch all the records then i can't store it in $scope.todos=results.rows
My code is
tx.transaction(sql,[],myCallback)
function myCallback(tx,results)
{
console.log(results.rows); // shows objects in console
$scope.todos=results.rows;
}
In view the todos is not working with ng-repeat.
It might help to show all of your controller, or service. If it's a controller make sure you included the $scope parameter for example:
.controller('MyController', function ($scope){
}))
If you are doing this inside a service, save it in a variable inside the service, then from a controller where the "$scope" is available include your service then call your variable containing the results. This will also be helpful if you need to share those results with other controllers at a later time.
.service('MyDataService',function(){
var todos;
return {
.... set and get functions to access variable ...
getTodos: function() {
return todos;
}
};
});
And in controller
.controller('MyController', function ($scope, MyDataService){
$scope.todos = MyDataService.getTodos()
}))
There are also ways to get the $scope working in a service but I don't think it's a great idea.
I'm trying to create directives on the fly, actually I achived that, but seams pretty hacky.
This was my first approach:
function create(myDir) {
angular.module("app").directive(myDir.name, function() {
return {
template:myDir.template
};
});
}
It didn't work because you can't register directives after application started.
based on this post: http://weblogs.thinktecture.com/pawel/2014/07/angularjs-dynamic-directives.html
I found out that I could use compileProvider to do the work, but since compileProvider isn't available outside config block, you need to put it out, so I did:
var provider = {};
angular.module("app",[]);
angular.module('app')
.config(function ($compileProvider) {
//It feels hacky to me too.
angular.copy($compileProvider, provider);
});
....
function create(myDir) {
provider.directive.apply(null, [myDir.name, function () {
return { template: myDir.template } }]);
render(myDir); //This render a new instance of my new directive
}
Surprisingly it worked. But I can't feel like being hacking the compileProvider, because I'm using it not in the way it was suppose to be, I would really like to know if is it possible to use the compileProvider properly after the application has started.
There is a list of dependencies that can be injected to config blocks (these are built-in $provide, $injector and all service providers) and a list of dependencies that can be injected to everywhere else (service instances and good old $injector). As you can see all that constant does is adding the dependency to both lists.
A common recipe for using providers outside config is
app.config(function ($provide, $compileProvider) {
$provide.constant('$compileProvider', $compileProvider);
});
I was following the angular docs and other links in order to create a "component" with angular inside a rails-based project.
The problem is that I can't correctly initialize the app, and instead I got two identical errors
Uncaught Error: No module: testApp0
Uncaught Error: No module: testApp0
In the following jsfiddle I try to show you my point http://jsfiddle.net/d8Lyu/
I'm pretty new in angular and the official documentation isn't very helpful
You are almost here! Just remember angular is modular and every module need to be declared with an angular.module('my_module_name', ['my_modules_dependency']).
Just refactor your code like that :
angular.module( //this is your app module
'testApp0',
['testApp0.controllers'] //your app need your controller as a dependency to works
);
angular.module( //this is your controller module
'testApp0.controllers',
[]
).controller('sliderCtrl', ['$scope', function($scope) {
$scope.greeting = "hellow" //you pass a gretting variable to your template
}
])
An other thing : you declare a gretting variable in your controller but acces it with user.hellow in your template. Just put {{ gretting }}.
One last thing, in the
frameworks and extensions
of fiddle change 'onLoad' to 'in body', you don't want your angular app to be ready before the DOM.
If you plan to use angular, look at : angular-app. The tutorial app can't be trusted for serious angular developement.
Use this jsfiddle as a reference: http://jsfiddle.net/joshdmiller/HB7LU/
You need to add an external resource, change settings in the 'fiddle options' section and the 'frameworks and extensions' section.
Once everything is setup you can create your angular in the javascript pane likeso:
var myApp = angular.module('myApp',[]);
//myApp.directive('myDirective', function() {});
//myApp.factory('myService', function() {});
function MyCtrl($scope) {
$scope.name = 'Superhero';
}
