I'm currently delving into the world of AngularJS and facing a particular question that has me stumped.
Let's examine the sample code snippet I put together:
js
var app = angular.module('customerPortalApp', ["ui.router"]);
app.config( function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider){
// For any unmatched url, send to /route1
$urlRouterProvider.otherwise("/route1");
$stateProvider
.state('route1', {
url: "/route1",
templateUrl: "/static/html/partials/_campaign_title.html",
controller: "CampaignCtrl"
})
});
app.controller("CampaignCtrl", function($scope){
$scope.loadCampaign = function(){
alert("loaded campaign!")
}
});
app.directive("campaign", function() {
var MessageBox = angular.element('<div class="alert alert-success">hello</div>');
var link = function (scope, element){
scope.loadCampaign();
}
return {
restrict: "E",
compile: function (template){
template.append(MessageBox)
return link
}
}
});
html
<div class="container" ng-app="customerPortalApp">
<div class="row">
<div class="span12">
<div class="well" ui-view></div>
</div>
</div>
<div ng-controller="CampaignCtrl">
<campaign>
test
</campaign>
</div>
</div>
Upon analyzing this piece of code, I have successfully called the controller in my configuration and integrated the new $stateProvider, which is now responsible for handling the loading of templates. Despite these functionalities, I am left pondering about the necessity of the directive in this context. In this scenario, it seems unclear why a directive would be required. Additionally, I am curious if ui-view can accommodate multiple controllers simultaneously.
