someone knows what "#!" Means. on the url?
I was working until then this appears,I had a "#" always in the url and would like to keep it that way.
Currently routing is not working anymore,probably because of this url change.
It's part of a business project, i don`t want to change to html5Mode.
I tried to use:
$locationProvider.hashPrefix("");
Even correcting the url in this way routing is having problems
Thats called hash-bang.
To fix this use :
angular.module('yourApp', [])
.config(['$locationProvider', function($locationProvider) {
$locationProvider.hashPrefix('');
}]);
Adding html5Mode would even get rid of the '#' in the url but if you refresh the page, then you would get a 404 error. This can be fixed by configuring your server a bit. For that you might want to check the nice little tutorials :

https://www.theodo.fr/blog/2017/01/pretty-url-in-angularjs-and-loopback-drop-the/
There is another answer to the hashbang issue in stackoverlow :
Doing links like Twitter, Hash-Bang #! URL's
You can use html5Mode in your location provider.
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
more info https://scotch.io/tutorials/pretty-urls-in-angularjs-removing-the-hashtag
Set html5mode true in your app.config
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true).hashPrefix('*');

I am facing some weird type of behavior with spring boot + angular js while doing routing. Although routing is working but otherwise redirect to is not working.
For example:
if the url is http://localhost/admin/home#/analysis(working)
if the url is http://localhost/admin/home#/ (working)
but if the url is http://localhost/admin/home (not working)
I have configured otherwise but its not doing any benefit
Below is my code:
.config(['$routeProvider','$httpProvider',function ($routeProvider, $httpProvider) {
$routeProvider.when('/analysis', {
templateUrl : '../resources/views/includes/dashboard.html',
controller : "RegistrationController"
}).when('/', {
templateUrl : '../resources/views/includes/profile.html',
controller : "RegistrationController"
})
.otherwise({
redirectTo: '/'
});
$httpProvider.defaults.headers.common["X-Requested-With"] = 'XMLHttpRequest';
}]);
I have placed in html
I would suggest you to take a look at $locationProvider.html5Mode(true).
It tells angularJS to use HTML5 strategy if available. Basically # is required for those browsers who do not support HTML5.
Also, you will be required to configure <base> tag of html.
Even when you will implement these concepts, you will stumble across another issue which I faced as well. If you navigate via href in the application, it would work , but if you copy the url and paste it directly in the browser, you'll get error as it would directly hit the server and will try to find necessary URL mapping on the server.
For more details, you can look at this this question which I asked for this issue
I hope it'll help.
Your problem is more related to SEO-related AngularJS implementation, basically, the solution to this is using the rewrite functionality of Apache or Nginx.
For more information, you can start here.
So, I'm pretty new to AngularJS and I'm trying to use AngularJs ngRoute in my application.
It all works smoothly when I start at the application homepage:
http://localhost:8080/appName/
And when I click on links from this point it works smoothly.
However, when I type a URL that I know exists/works, it gives me a 404 error. If I go to that link by using the application instead of the url it loads fine, even though it has the same url.
Eg. http://localhost:8080/appName/search
will give a 404, even though that is the same url that is the default redirect.
Indeed, the only url that will load by typing in the location is the base URL I mentioned above.
My app.js looks like this:
app.config( ['$routeProvider', '$locationProvider', function($routeProvider, $locationProvider){
$routeProvider
.when("/search", {
templateUrl: "search.html",
controller: "SearchController"
})
.when("/results", {
templateUrl: "results.html",
controller: "ResultsController"
})
.when("/browse", {
templateUrl: "browse.html",
controller: "BrowseController"
})
.otherwise({redirectTo:"/search"});
//This gets rid of the # on the urls to the templates
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
}]);
I am hosting this on a glassfish4 server.
Is there something obvious I am missing/misunderstanding about how ngRoute works? Is there some setting that I am missing?
All help appreciated...
EDIT 1: As #Matthew Green below says, I need to configure the webserver to return the index.html for all pages below
http://localhost:8080/appName
I know I am being completely dense here, but where abouts is this configured? I am hosting the code in a MAVEN Jersey-Quickstart-Webapp.
When you use ngRoute, you are using javascript to handle routing to create a SPA. That means you need to hit a real page that loads your routing for your application to know what page to route to.
For example, your http://localhost:8080/appName/ should be routing to your index.html which would contain the javascript for your routing. With that page loaded it knows how to handle the links you have in your application. However, if you were to go directly to http://localhost:8080/appName/pageName you also need that to load index.html, as it is the one that loads your routing. Once your routing is loaded it should direct you to the correct page in your application. Without redirecting in place, http://localhost:8080/appName/pageName is not a real page and therefore correctly returns a 404.
Knowing this, the thing you have to figure out is what kind of server setup you have to configure the appropriate redirects for everything under http://localhost:8080/appName/ to go to your index.html page.
I'm having trouble getting path lookup to work with a AngularJS v1.2.0 and PhoneGap/Cordova Android application. I've come pretty far with html5mode(true) by setting <base href="."/> in index.html and then changing $routeProvider.when('/') to $routeProvider.when('/android_asset/www/index.html'). After that I am able to get redirectTo('login') to reach $routeProvider.when('/login') and there render templateUrl: 'static/partials/login.html' as expected.
The problem I have is that if I instead try to redirect to the login page from my Javascript code with $location.path('/login');, the route is found but templateUrl loading fails with an insecurl exception.
I've tried whitelisting access to file:// by using the new angular-sanitize module, but that does not help.
How can I make $location.path() do the same things as redirectTo so that the partial is loaded? Or is there some other way to solve this problem?
UPDATE: I got a bit forward by adding a call to replace() after the path function, e.g.:
$location.path('/login').replace();
but that seems like a hack, and it still causes the templateUrl in the otherwise route to fail with the same exception.
Any ideas on what might be wrong? Is it that html5mode(true) just does not work at this moment with Phonegap and the only way to fix this is to set it to false and add hashtags to every path (like is done in the angular phonegap seed project)?
For future reference, this is how I managed to solve the problem:
AngularJS currently does not seem to support html5mode(true) inside a Cordova application because of the insecurl problem I reported. What I had to do is add
var h5m = (typeof html5Mode !== 'undefined') ? html5Mode : true;
$locationProvider.html5Mode(h5m);
which gives me the possibility to explicitly set html5Mode in the PhoneGap index.html with a global variable:
<script>
var html5Mode = false;
</script>
So now $location.path('/login') as well as redirectTo: 'login' works, but links in html files, don't. To get those working in PhoneGap, with html5Mode disabled, I had to add #/ in front of every link, e.g. login.
That makes PhoneGap work, but breaks the web page which uses History API with html5Mode(true). The last piece of the puzzle was to add <base href="/"/> to the web page's index.html (and leave it out of the index.html of the PhoneGap project.) So now even though I have a link that says #/login in the web page, I get to the url http://example.com/login and don't see any hashes in the address bar.
**
So in the end I have History API working in my web page and History API disabled in the PhoneGap project (where there really is no need for History API as there is no address bar). The only downside is the extra #/ I have to put in each template html file, but that is a minor annoyance compared to the ability to use all of the same html and javascript files for both web and mobile.
I had this same problem as well. I managed to fix it by skipping the leading slash in the route config:
$routeProvider
// route for the foo page
.when('/foo', {
templateUrl: 'foo.html', //previously: '/foo.html'
controller: 'fooController'
}) //etc.
Angular js appends the extenssion "/#" to my url (eg. http://example.com/#/) but I'd like my root direction to be completely clean (without the /#).
Is there a way to override this to have a clean home url?
Set html5Mode to true in your config via $locationProvider:
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
See: http://docs.angularjs.org/guide/dev_guide.services.$location
You need to configure the $location provider in order to get rid of the hash # in the url. This documentation goes through how to configure for html5 mode.
This SO Question will also help:
Removing the fragment identifier from AngularJS urls (# symbol)
I also faced this issue. This could be achieved by
Add $locationProvider.html5Mode(true) in the config
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true)
Add base url in the Index.html head tag
<base href="/app/index.html">
When enabling the html5Mode in AngularJS via $locationProvider.html5Mode(true), navigation seems to be skewed when you land on a page deeper in the site.
for example:
http://www.site.com
when i navigate to the root, i can click all links in the site, Angular's $routeProvider will take over navigating through the site and loading the correct views.
http://www.site.com/news/archive
but when i navigate to this url (or hit refresh when I'm on a deeplink like the above one...) this navigation is not working as I expect it to.
first of all, our as the Documentation for $locationProvider.html5Mode specifies, we catch all urls on the server, similar to the otherwise route in angular, and return the same html as the root domain. But if I then check the $location object from within the run function of angular, it tells me that http://www.site.com is my host and that /archive is my path. the $routeProvider arrives in the .otherwise() clause, since i only have /news/archive as a valid route. and the app does weird stuff.
Maybe the rewriting on the server needs to be done differently, or I need to specify stuff in angular, but currently i'm clueless as to why angular see's the path without the /news segment included.
example main.js:
// Create an application module
var App = angular.module('App', []);
App.config(['$routeProvider', '$locationProvider', function AppConfig($routeProvider, $locationProvider) {
$routeProvider
.when(
'/', {
redirectTo: '/home'
})
.when('/home', {
templateUrl: 'templates/home.html'
})
.when('/login', {
templateUrl: 'templates/login.html'
})
.when('/news', {
templateUrl: 'templates/news.html'
})
.when('/news/archive', {
templateUrl: 'templates/newsarchive.html'
})
// removed other routes ... *snip
.otherwise({
redirectTo: '/home'
}
);
// enable html5Mode for pushstate ('#'-less URLs)
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
$locationProvider.hashPrefix('!');
}]);
// Initialize the application
App.run(['$location', function AppRun($location) {
debugger; // -->> here i debug the $location object to see what angular see's as URL
}]);
Edit
as per request, more details on the server side:
the server side is organised by the routing of zend framework, and it handles it's own routes (for serving data to the frontend on specific /api urls, and at the end, there is a catch-all route if no specific other route is bound, it serves the same html as the root-route.
so it basically serves the homepage html on that deeplinked route.
Update 2
after looking into the problem we noticed this routing works fine as it is, on Angular 1.0.7 stable, but shows the above described behaviour in the Angular 1.1.5 unstable.
I've checked the change-logs but haven't found anything useful so far, I guess we can either submit it as a bug, or unwanted behaviour linked to a certain change they did, or just wait and see if it get's fixed in the later to be released stable version.
Found out that there's no bug there.
Just add:
<base href="/" />
to your <head />.
This was the best solution I found after more time than I care to admit. Basically, add target="_self" to each link that you need to insure a page reload.
http://blog.panjiesw.com/posts/2013/09/angularjs-normal-links-with-html5mode/
This problem was due to the use of AngularJS 1.1.5 (which was unstable, and obviously had some bug or different implementation of the routing than it was in 1.0.7)
turning it back to 1.0.7 solved the problem instantly.
have tried the 1.2.0rc1 version, but have not finished testing as I had to rewrite some of the router functionality since they took it out of the core.
anyway, this problem is fixed when using AngularJS vs 1.0.7.
Configure AngularJS
$location / switching between html5 and hashbang mode / link rewriting
Configure your server:
https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-router/wiki/Frequently-Asked-Questions#wiki-how-to-configure-your-server-to-work-with-html5mode
My problem solved with these :
1- Add this to your head :
<base href="/" />
2- Use this in app.config
$locationProvider.html5Mode(true);
