I'm just learning Angular and have a very basic app set up. When rendering some data via the templateUrl property of a route, what would be the best way to include a sub-controller in the returned template? For example, including a "createOrEditItem" template at the bottom of a "viewItem" template so that the "createOrEditItem" can be reused on its own later?
I've tried putting a div in the template with its ng-controller attribute set to a controller name that I've defined at the app level, but it's not being activated. Should this be done with a directive instead to make it instantiate when the master controller has its contents set, or am I missing something more fundamental?
yes, as mentioned in the later part of the question, you should be using a directive. Or, if using AngularJS >= v1.5, component should be the choice because they are pluggable and works well with nesting too.
Note that for the route also, you can directly use a component like this:
var myMod = angular.module('myMod', ['ngRoute']);
myMod.component('home', {
template: '<h1>Home</h1><p>Hello, {{ $ctrl.user.name }} !</p>',
// ^^^^ other components can be used here
controller: function() {
this.user = {name: 'world'};
}
});
myMod.config(function($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider.when('/', {
template: '<home></home>'
});
});
Now, as the comment suggests, you can freely use other components in the template of home component.
Hope this helps a bit!
