I'm beginning to work with AngularJS and am having trouble working with a local copy of the angular.js file. Below is the sample I am trying to get to work. When I reference the CDN script, the page correctly displays 'Hello, World'. When I reference the local script, the binding does not occur. The browser is able to locate the local angular.js file, it just doesn't seem to perform the binding.
<html ng-app>
<head>
<title></title>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.0.4/angular.js"></script>
<!--<script src="Scripts/angular.js"></script>-->
<script>
function HelloController($scope) {
$scope.greeting = { text: "Hello" };
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div ng-controller="HelloController">
<p>{{greeting.text}}, World</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
If I was starting out with 1.3.15 would do something like this:
<html ng-app="main.app">
<head>
<script src="https://code.angularjs.org/1.3.15/angular.js"></script>
<script>
angular.module('main.app', [])
.controller('HelloController', function () {
var self = this;
this.greeting = { text: "Hello" };
})
</script>
</head>
<body ng-controller="HelloController as HelloCtrl">
<p>{{HelloCtrl.greeting.text}}, World</p>
</body>
</html>
This follows the latest styles of angular coding

Newbie to AngularJS. Trying to display a message from controller onto the html page but it does not show. I'm using AngularJS version 1.6.0 and I binded the controller to the body tag. What am I missing?
/// HTML
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="app">
<head>
<script data-require="angular.js#*" data-semver="4.0.0"
src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.6.10/angular.min.js">
</script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
<script src="script.js"></script>
</head>
<body ng-controller="MainController">
<h1>{{message}}</h1>
</body>
</html>
// script.js file contents
var app = angular.module('app', []);
app.MainController('MainController', function($scope) {
$scope.message = "Hello, Angular!";
});
Thank you.
Since you are using the version 1.6 , declaration of global controller is not supported, you need to have a module as well.
DEMO
var app = angular.module('testApp',[])
app.controller('MainController',function($scope) {
$scope.message = "Hello, Angular!";
});
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="testApp">
<head>
<script data-require="angular.js#*" data-semver="4.0.0"
src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.6.10/angular.min.js">
</script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" />
<script src="script.js"></script>
</head>
<body ng-controller="MainController">
<h1>{{message}}</h1>
</body>
</html>
do you need to pass the name of your app on the ng-app tag.
Like this:
<html ng-app="your-app">
So Angular understand where it comes.
So, an advice to you is using the controllerAs syntax over the classic controller with $scope syntax.
Like this:
JS file:
var app = angular.module('testApp',[])
app.controller('MainController',function($scope) {
var vm = this; // view model
vm.message = "Hello, Angular!";
});
HTML file:
<body ng-controller="MainController as mainCtrl">
<!-- or any other name, your choice -->
<h1>{{mainCtrl.message}}</h1>
</body>
Why?: Controllers are constructed, "newed" up, and provide a single
new instance, and the controllerAs syntax is closer to that of a
JavaScript constructor than the classic $scope syntax.
Why?: It promotes the use of binding to a "dotted" object in the View
(e.g. customer.name instead of name), which is more contextual, easier
to read, and avoids any reference issues that may occur without
"dotting".
Why?: Helps avoid using $parent calls in Views with nested controllers

I hope this helps you
For some reason when I use ng-repeat the $scope variable does not bind its data to the view. It's been driving me insane because I figure out what i'm doing wrong in this case. In the when I console.log the $scope variable, its there but it just refuses to bind to the view when i'm using ng-repeat. In this case the word "movie" in the paragraph tag is repeated 3x but there's not data to go with it. Here is the code below:
<html ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="IndexCtrl">
<head>
<base href="/">
<title>Page Title</title>
</head>
<body>
<div>Hello World!
<div ng-repeat="movie in movies">
<p>movie: {{movie.moviename}}</p>
</div>
</div>
<script src="bower_components/angular/angular.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angular-route/angular-route.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var myApp = angular.module("myApp", []);
function IndexCtrl($scope) {
$scope.movies = [
{'moviename':'ironman'},
{'moviename':'antman'},
{'moviename':'man'}
];
console.log($scope.movies);
};
</script>
</body>
</html>
After long sleepless nights lol I figured out the answer. Apparently the problem was with my node js express server using mustache as a middleware to template html. It uses the {{ }} symbols as well so angular never got to interpret what was going on. So I used $interpolateProvider to change the angular symbols and now it works beautifully.
var myApp = angular.module('myApp', [], function($interpolateProvider) {
$interpolateProvider.startSymbol('[[');
$interpolateProvider.endSymbol(']]');
});
To anyone else using a node.js backend and not using jade as a template language, I hope this helps!
It would be better to explicitly define the controller inside the module:
var myApp = angular.module("myApp", []);
myApp.controller('IndexCtrl', function($scope) {
$scope.movies = [
{'moviename':'ironman'},
{'moviename':'antman'},
{'moviename':'man'}
];
console.log($scope.movies);
});
But.... I copied the code exactly, replaced angular resource path. And all is working.
<html ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="IndexCtrl">
<head>
<base href="/">
<title>Page Title</title>
</head>
<body>
<div>Hello World!
<div ng-repeat="movie in movies">
<p>movie: {{movie.moviename}}</p>
</div>
</div>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.23/angular.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var myApp = angular.module("myApp", []);
function IndexCtrl($scope) {
$scope.movies = [
{'moviename':'ironman'},
{'moviename':'antman'},
{'moviename':'man'}
];
console.log($scope.movies);
};
</script>
</body>
</html>
Trying to follow a tutorial, I can't get the "Hello, world" example working. Instead it displays: "{{greeting.text}}, world". Using Chrome and AngularJS 1.3.1.

Answering the question of what is wrong and if they changed something.
AngularJs Version 1.2 or older: The controller could be a function not defined into a module. Like in the question.
Controller
function HelloController($scope) {
$scope.greeting = { text: 'Hello' };
}
Angular Version 1.3 or newer: The controller must be defined into a module. Like in the answer.
Controller
var appname = angular.module('appname', []);
appname.controller('appCtrl', ['$scope',
function($scope) {
$scope.greeting = { text: 'Hello' };
}]);

The accepted answer is good but I thought I'd chip in with some resources I've found helpful if you're looking for a better understanding of how things work in Angular
Egghead.io - www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLP6DbQBkn9ymGQh2qpk9ImLHdSH5T7yw7
Shaping up with Angular www.codeschool.com/courses/shaping-up-with-angular-js
Both are completely free courses and because the egghead.io playlist is split into videos for separate concepts it's also really good reference material.
The angular.js developer guide is also really helpful!
I was just testing out angular and am wonder why nothing is showing up when I load up the page. I installed AngularJS through Package install already. Is there something wrong here?
HTML
<!DOCTYPE HTML>

JAVASCRIPT
var journal = angular.module("journal", []);
journal.directive("header", function(){

You need to load AngularJS and jQuery before running your own script. Like so:
<script src = "http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type ="text/javascript" src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.0.7/angular.min.js"> </script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="Journal.js"></script>
(Additionally, you might be running into a different issue if you are testing locally using the file:// protocol. I'm not sure, but just in case: you'll have to specify a HTTP[s] protocol to load AngularJS: http://ajax.googleapis.com... instead of //ajax.googleapis.com...)
you have to add ng-app in the first HTML tag.
<html ng-app>
<!-- ...head...body -->
</html>
Perhaps this is an easier version of your app:
<html ng-app="journal">
<script type ="text/javascript"
src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.0.7/angular.min.js">
</script>
<title>jojo</title>
<div ng-controller="hola">
</div>
<script>
angular.module("journal", [])
.controller("hola", function($scope){
alert('HOLEAAA!');
})
</script>
</html>
Thanks.
EDIT: i arranged the files so the JS file is the last one.. but its still not working
The result when I open this up in firefox is simply {{message}}
I've named the files: html.html and js.js
HTML file
<html ng-app="app">
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.5/angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="js.js", type='text/javascript'></script>
</head>
<body ng-controller="abc">
{{message}}
</body>
</html>
Javascript file
var app = angular.module('app', []);
abc.controller('abc', function($scope){
$scope.message = 'booya';
});
Your controller should be defined as:
app.controller('abc', function($scope){
$scope.message = 'booya';
});
You have mentioned abc.controller. It seems where the issue is
You need to load js.js after angularjs, which means that your should look like:
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.5/angular.min.js"> </script>
<script src="js.js", type='text/javascript'></script>
You dont have a body or a ngController. And you should change the order of your js files, as follows:
<html ng-app="app">
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.5/angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="js.js", type='text/javascript'></script>
</head>
<body ng-controller="abc">
{{message}}
</body>
</html>
