AngularJs ui-router reload template - angularjs

Question

I have a angularjs project that's using ui-router for routing.
I am using $state.reload() to reload the current state and it works just fine except that in my development system i want the $state.reload() to also reload the html template to reflect the new changes without a full page reload.
Is there a hack or option to do this ?
Update :
Chris T's solution almost worked, but i have templateFactoryDecorator witch adds a cache buster to the template url.
function configureTemplateFactory($provide) {
// Set a suffix outside the decorator function
var cacheBuster = Date.now().toString();
function templateFactoryDecorator($delegate) {
var fromUrl = angular.bind($delegate, $delegate.fromUrl);
$delegate.fromUrl = function (url, params) {
if (url !== null && angular.isDefined(url) && angular.isString(url)) {
url += (url.indexOf("?") === -1 ? "?" : "&");
url += "v=" + cacheBuster;
}
return fromUrl(url, params);
};
return $delegate;
}
$provide.decorator('$templateFactory', ['$delegate', templateFactoryDecorator]);
}
so
$templateCache.remove($state.current.templateUrl);
didn't work and i had to use
$templateCache.removeAll();
Its not ideal but for development environment its ok.

Internally, UI-Router leverages the $templateCache service to avoid re-fetching templates. Before calling $state.reload(), clear out the template you want to refetch from the server.
Assuming you want to do this from a controller:
function MyController($scope, $templateCache, $state) {
$scope.reload = function() {
$templateCache.remove("/path/to/template.html");
$state.reload();
}
}
Docs:
$templateCache
$cacheFactory
On a side note, I find it odd that you would want to refetch the template from the server.

I may have missed your point but When you use $state.reload() it reloads the state that means all the partials in side that template and the controllers in side that controller scope. Thus the state is reloaded not the full page.
So I see no errors in your side unless you want to do other staff ..
And if you are dynamically generating the DOM, It will do it for you .
