Answer 1

To share resources across two modules, declare a factory or a service.

Suppose you have a search module:

//you inject your pagination module here
var searchModule = angular.module('search', ['pagination']);

//and you ALSO need to inject your pagination's service into your controller
searchModule.controller('MainController', ['$scope', 'paginationSvc' function($scope, paginationSvc) {
  //function from pagination module controller
  paginationSvc.testFunction();
}])

And your pagination module:

var pagination = angular.module('pagination', []);

//declare your pagination service here
pagination.factory('PaginationSvc', [function(){
 return {
   testFunction:testFunction
 };
 function testFunction(){
   console.log('This is from pagination module');
}
}])

Maybe a little plnkr will help :D
