Linking one controller to another to call service on ng-click
This simple example show to you how to share data between 2 controllers "in one app" using common service.
angular.module("app", []);
///controller1
angular.module("app").controller("controller1", function ($scope, service) {
$scope.lists = [
{ name: "maher" },
{ name: "Gaurav Ram" },
{ name: "Shaun Scovil" }
];
$scope.send = function () {
service.set("lists", $scope.lists); //set(key, value)
$scope.lists = []; //optional
}
});
///controller2
angular.module("app").controller("controller2", function ($scope, service) {
$scope.lists = [];
//get data from broadcast on the root
service.get("lists"); // get(key)
//set data
$scope.resive = function () {
if (angular.isUndefined($scope.broadcast)) {
$scope.alert = "No data to resive!";
} else {
$scope.alert = null;
$scope.lists = $scope.broadcast;
}
}
});
///service
angular.module("app").service("service", function ($rootScope) {
this.set = function (key, value) {
$rootScope.$broadcast(key, value);
}
this.get = function (key) {
$rootScope.$on(key, function (event, data) {
$rootScope.broadcast = data;
});
}
});
