Reloading the page gives wrong GET request with AngularJS HTML5 mode

Question

I want to enable HTML5 mode for my app. I have put the following code for the configuration, as shown here:

return app.config([\'$routeProvider\',\'$location         


        

Answer 1

I had a similar problem and I solved it by:

• Using in the index page

• Using a catch all route middleware in my node/Express server as follows (put it after the router):

app.use(function(req, res) {
    res.sendfile(__dirname + '/Public/index.html');
});

I think that should get you up and running.

If you use an apache server, you might want to mod_rewrite your links. It is not difficult to do. Just a few changes in the config files.

All that is assuming you have html5mode enabled on angularjs. Now. note that in angular 1.2, declaring a base url is not recommended anymore actually.
