Exploring the functionalities of two components from the AngularUI suite - UI-Router and UI-Bootstrap. UI-Router manages template loading when users interact with the top navbar links.

Currently, only the first two links under 'UI Widget Templates' (AngularUI-Bootstrap and Alert) are active.

On the other hand, UI-Bootstrap enhances the visual appeal by providing widgets within the templates. While UI-Router seems correctly configured to load templates and access controllers, a challenge arises with UI-Bootstrap components failing to load and displaying unusual errors that suggest an attempt to load templates independently. What could be causing this hindrance in loading Bootstrap-UI directives?

HTML Template for Alert dropdown link

<tabset>
  <tab heading="Static title">Static content</tab>
  <tab ng-repeat="tab in tabs" heading="{{tab.title}}" active="tab.active"           disabled="tab.disabled">
    {{tab.content}}
  </tab>
  <tab select="alertMe()">
  <tab-heading>
    <i class="icon-bell"></i> Select me for alert!
  </tab-heading>
  I've got an HTML heading, and a select callback. Pretty cool!
  </tab>
 </tabset>

{{tabs}}

Error Message from console when Alert template loads

Angular Goodness

angular.module("uiRouterExample", [
'ui.router',
'ui.bootstrap']).config(function ($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
    $stateProvider
        .state('home', {
            url: '/home',
            templateUrl: 'templates/home.html',
            controller: 'BSCtrl'
        })
        .state('angularBS', {
            url: '/angularBS',
            templateUrl: 'templates/angularBS.html',
            controller: 'BSCtrl'
        })
        .state('alert', {
            url: '/alert',
            templateUrl: 'templates/alert.html',
            controller: 'BSCtrl'
        })
    ;
})
.controller('BSCtrl', function ($scope) {

    $scope.tabs = [
      { title:"Accordion", content:"Dynamic content 1" },
      { title:"Alert", content:"Dynamic content 2"},
      {title:"Buttons", content:"More Dynamic Content"}
    ];

    $scope.test="Hello World";

    $scope.alerts = [
      { type: 'error', msg: 'Oh snap! Change a few things up and try submitting again.' }, 
      { type: 'success', msg: 'Well done! You successfully read this important alert message.' }
    ];

    $scope.addAlert = function() {
      $scope.alerts.push({msg: "Another alert!"});
    };

    $scope.closeAlert = function(index) {
      $scope.alerts.splice(index, 1);
    };

});

Answer №1

UI-Bootstrap depends on templates that are not included in the ui-bootstrap-[version].js file. The configuration options for build files can be found here. Here is a relevant excerpt:

Files with the -tpls in their name contain bootstrap-specific templates bundled with directives. If you just want to use all the directives without customization, you should use a file named ui-bootstrap-tpls-[version].min.js. However, if you need custom templates instead of the default ones, you can use ui-bootstrap-[version].min.js and provide your own templates...

In your plunkr project, you have used ui-bootstrap-0.7.0.js instead of ui-bootstrap-tpls-0.7.0.js which does not include the templates. However, references to these templates are hard-coded under the directives' templateUrls, as shown below:

.directive('alert', function() {
  return {
    ...
    templateUrl:'template/alert/alert.html',
    ...
  };
}])

Edit, incorporating @inolasco's response:

If you are still facing this issue while using ui-bootstrap-tpls.js, you may need to add

'ui.bootstrap.tpls'

to your module.

Answer №2

In addition to the solution provided above, I came across a helpful tip that helped me resolve a related problem. If you are utilizing ui-bootstrap-tpls.js and continue to encounter issues, it is possible that including

'ui.bootstrap.tpls'

in your module could be the solution. This simple step worked wonders for me.
