Is there any way to create a partial view like .net MVC in angular JS. I'd like to achieve the same partial view functionality in angular JS.
For Ex.
I want to reuse a modal popup in all page so I don't have to write the same code on each page.
you can use ng-include for partials, but if you are going to use this partial inside a ng-repeat its best to use a directive instead.It has better performance.
From this question it is hard to judge what you want to achieve, but from angulars perspective you can always use ng-include to include template fragments.
I'd recommend to either provide a more detailed example - potentially with code example - so that you get better support.
If you want to create something that is a partial in an MVC framework, then I'd say that should be a component/directive in angular.

I have a top menu in my angular app. Since the menu is static, it is not included in the ng-view.
I could leave the menu source in the index.html, but for cleaner markup I decided to pull it into a partial.
Now my question: Is it better practice to use ng-include and a separate controller or implement a custom directive instead?
I won't really reuse the code so I think ng-include would be fine but a directive somehow feels more "the angular way"...
ng-include is just fine to load partial views for your application(I assume that your index.html is kind of a master page with one ng-view section).
Each section that is loaded can have it's own controller(e.g. if you have a div with 'hot news' that fetches stuff from the db, you can just include the partial view using ng-include and let the new view have a ng-controller directive that will perform a ajax call to fetch stuff from the db).
I would add a directive only if need extra functionallity.
If you can live without it then why bother?
Is it better practice to use ng-include and a separate controller or
implement a custom directive instead?
Best practice is always subjective.
I have taken this approach:
If I want to build for reuse; I create a directive.
If I want to separate code for organizational purposes, I use an ng-include
I would seriously suggest looking at ui-router (https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-router), which gives you an enormous amount of flexibility to setup layout pages that have different sections (main, left-nav, content). It's a much more flexible means of using Angular to setup page structure so that you don't have to repeat yourself. It's also tremendously powerful by allow you precise control over different section of a page depending on where people are in your application.
The docs do a reasonably good job explaining it, but try to focus on the area which talks about multiple-named views.
ng-include will work fine, but it if you want more control, ui-router is the way to go.
Hi I am new to AngularJS. I have great web app already running with JQuery and jQuery UI.
Now I want to completely get rid of JQuery and am going to migrate to Angularjs because of its MVC (MVW) pattern.
So my jQuery application is running with EJS for templates and entirely DOM manipulation. But when I think about Angular js, I have doubts. Can I still use EJS or not?
So please guide me whether I can use or not.
Another doubt is, let's assume I have list page. It is updated dynamically, and it will display 10 records first then based on user scroll, the next 10 records will be appended in the DOM after AJAX. Can we append to the DOM dynamically using Angular?
How do I achieve these kind of things in Angular?
You can use EJS (server or client side) in combination with Angular but there's no need and you'll probably overcomplicate things. AngularJS is very capable for manipulating the DOM by itself in a very separation of concerns kind of way. The most elegant way to work with Angular is to have a RESTful backend and just serve some static html/js files from a webserver.
As for endless scrolling, there are tons of ready to use plugins (modules) to choose from or you can write your own. Basically this will need a view with a ng-repeat directive to display the currently loaded items and a directive that will notify a controller/scope to load more items when the user is scrolling down.
A nice simple article can be found here.

Yes of course you can use EJS with Angular JS. You might want to have a look at this;
https://gist.github.com/jrmoran/4277025
And about your DOM manipulation question. Yes you can append DOM dynamically using Angular JS. Angular JS have a strong feature of two way data binding which dynamically updates its DOM content when a model variable changes.
Have a look at this:

First of all i am confuse for my project whether it can use angular.js or not, although i have started using it and i created some customization module with this but when i started applying it for all project i got stuck on many things.
My project is a order taking project and it has structure like this.
In the index page it has 3 panels.
left panle that draws all categories
middle panel that draws all category specific productes
and right panel that draws all the basket items with calculations.
On product click there also appears a model that draws all the customization.
I am using MVC-4.
Every thing on index that includes some layout is a partial view _leftpanl, _middlePnl, _rightPnl, _customziaion.
My concern is.
If i define the routes to the module i created how to fix on ng-view because per scope there will be one ng-view only. and my application load atleast 3 partial views to index page at the same time. So how would i fix on ng-view.
Just gimme some guide lines that i should follow to create this kind of application with angular.js.
Or it is not possible with angular because i think it is not a single page application.

It seems you have a problem to define what you really need.
AngularJS primary purpose is to do some Single Page Application. Which is, code only in HTML/CSS/JS in the front-end, and reuse your abilities in the back-end to produce DATA only (REST-json is the most classic but you can choose whatever you want).
So if you use a tool outside its primary purpose, you have to do some compromises : Of course you can mix backend template with AngularJS, but in this case, you can forget the router and ng-view.
Use AngularJS if you think you have some complex web interface. If it is only some static text, or even a few input forms here and there you don't necesseraly have to AngularJS, you can just use your classic server-side display rendering.
You could use ng-include to include each of your three partials into one view. Then in each partial view you can specify the controller with ng-controller. For creating the modal popup I would probably use ui bootstrap's modal
Alternatively you could use ui-router to create multiple parallel views.
I have following guidelines here which i hope will help you.
Do not mix Server Side MVC and Client Side MVC. AngularJS is primarly meant to augment the HTML and browser capability. The two-way binding of angularjs is excellent and provides lots of dynamic behavior. MVC4 scores best when we have to do lot of server side processing using the .Net platform capabilities.
But as you spent some good effort on this project and the corresponding technologies, there is a way out. Convert all your Controlller Actions in MVC4 to produce JsonResult and when the angularjs needs data use that, e.g. in $http.get( .
I have seen a few posts on how to create directives and controllers. However I am looking for something as simple as possible. Does anyone have any experience with creating some simple HTML code that allows me to use CKEditor. In particular the one thing I am not sure of is how to bind the editor contents to the model when I am using AngularJS.

I've making use of AngularJS Partial templates to create a dashboard. There is a listing view and when you click on an item, it switches to an Items-Detail partial.
Inside the Items detail partial, I'd like to show some charts via RGraph. However, for the life of me, I can't figure out how to do this.
I can't seem to invoke javascript from inside the partial html. So I think I need to do it in the controller, or maybe create a directive?
I'm pretty new to AngularJS so my understanding is still very rudimentary and likely misguided.
AngularJS ("jqlite") doesn't support <script> tags inside partials.
Include jQuery on your page, however, and it should work. Note that jQuery must be included before AngularJS.
