Angularjs inject provider into module factory function by string name for minification

Question

I have the following code:

appModule = angular.module(\'appModule\', []);

appModule.factory(\'sharedApplication\', function($rootScope, $http) {
  var sharedApp         


        

Answer 1

ng-annotate is also a good library so that the required dependency is injected automatically. You should check it out.

Code sample:

/* ngInject */
appModule.factory('sharedApplication', function($rootScope, $http) {
  var sharedApp;
  sharedApp = {};
  sharedApp.currentView = "home-section";
  sharedApp.pastEvents = null;
  $http.get('api/highlights').success(function(response) {
    return sharedApp.pastEvents = response.data;
  });
  return sharedApp;
});

Then you don't have to write:

appModule.factory('sharedApplication', ['$rootScope','$http', 
function($rootScope, $http) {
 var sharedApp;
 sharedApp = {};
 sharedApp.currentView = "home-section";
 sharedApp.pastEvents = null;
 $http.get('api/highlights').success(function(response) {
 return sharedApp.pastEvents = response.data;
});

return sharedApp;
}]);
