I am currently in the process of creating a small AngularJS application. I have created two separate views: one for displaying a list of all employees, called employeeListView, and another for showing detailed information about a specific employee, known as employeeView. Each view has its own corresponding controller.
In order to ensure that my application follows RESTful principles, I want the URL for the employeeListView to be #/employees and the URL for the employeeView to be #/employees/12345 (where 12345 represents the employee's unique ID). Please note that this ID is simply an example and can be substituted with any other employee ID.
While researching how to achieve this, I came across a helpful question on AngularJS Restful Routing. The answer that caught my eye was the last one, provided by the original poster of the question, which had been marked as the accepted solution. This approach utilizes the built-in features of ui-router to facilitate RESTful routing, rather than resorting to creating custom directives or similar solutions.
However, despite finding this solution promising, I encountered some difficulties in understanding the implementation details as the explanation seemed somewhat abstract and lacking practical examples. Therefore, I would greatly appreciate if someone could offer a more explicit explanation along with a demonstration of how to apply it in my scenario involving the two employee views.
Your assistance in clarifying this matter would be immensely valuable to me. Thank you!
