AngularJS
In 15mins

AngularJS – In 15mins
 One of the most popular JavaScript frameworks.
 Provides “declarative” MVC framework
 Uses several advanced concepts like directives,
services, factories, modules, dependency injection etc. to
help quickly build (& test) production quality apps.
 Has vibrant community support and funded by Google.

Directives
 Directives are simply strings on HTML that represent some function (behind-the-scene).
 They look like:
• <span my-dir="exp"></span> or <span data-my-dir="exp"></span> or <span my-dir></span>
• <span class="my-dir: exp;"></span>
• <my-dir></my-dir> //custom element!
•  //Even comments
 AngularJS calls and keeps track of directives and associated functions.
 AngularJS has tons of built-in directives like ng-model, ng-repeat, ng-click etc.
Example 1: Show Hello <name>! as & when the user types in a field.

Directives
Example 2: Show “Hello <username>” as the user types it BUT only if there
is some text.

MVC

ng-controllers, $scope & $rootScope
sdfsdf
<div ng-controller=“topBarCtrl”>has its own $scope </div><div ng-controller=“topBarCtrl”>has its own $scope </div>
<div ng-
controller=
“LeftBarCtrl”>
// has its own
$scope
</div>
<div ng-
controller=
“LeftBarCtrl”>
// has its own
$scope
</div>
<div ng-controller=“MainCtrl”>
//has it’s own $scope
</div>
<div ng-controller=“MainCtrl”>
//has it’s own $scope
</div>
<html ng-app=“appName”> $rootScope • Use Controller to divide up your app
• Every Controller gets its own $scope.
• $scope is an empty object w/ AngularJS functions.
• $rootScope is a global object.
function toolbarCtrl($rootScope, $scope) {
$rootScope.loggedIn = true; //visible to all ctrls
$scope.somFunc = function() {};
$scope.contactsList = [{}, {}, {}];
}
function mainCtrl($rootScope, $scope) {
if($rootScope.loggedIn) { //use $rootScope
//do something
}
$scope.onItemClick = function() { … }
}
Module.controller(‘LeftBarCtr’, function() {});
A tablet app

Single page app – ng-view
<div ng-view></div><div ng-view></div>
Contact Edit Page (edit.html)
<div ng-controller=“EditCtrl”></div>
Contacts DetailsView Page (view.html)
<div ng-controller=“ViewCtrl”></div>
Contacts List Page (list.html)
<div ng-controller=“ListCtrl”></div>
Main Page (index.html)
<script src=‘bla.js’></script>
<div ng-view> //Directive that allows switching different views
</div>

$routeProvider & $location “services” to switch views
 Angular provides ‘#’ based routing via $routeProvider.
 Configure when some #path is hit, which controller to use and which view to inject.
 Use $location to actually change views inside a controller.

Modules – Packaging it all up
 Modules provides namespace & help divide your app into different pieces.
var myModule = angular.module(‘myModule’, [‘dependentMod1’,
‘dependantMod2’]);
 You can create and attach custom “directives”, “controllers”, “services”, “factories” etc to a module.
myModule.directive(…) or myModule.controller(…) etc.
 In AngularJS, your app itself is a module.
var myApp = angular.module(‘myAppName’, [depMod1, depMod2]
 Note: App name should match ng-app in html!.
<html ng-app=“myAppName”>
</html>
