UI Router conditional ui views?

Question

I can\'t figure out a reasonable way, which doesn\'t feel like a hack, to solve this rather trivial problem.

The way I've done this is pretty simple. I made one for our A/B testing strategy. This is the gist:

resolve: {
   swapTemplate: function(service) {
      // all of this logic is in a service
      if (inAbTest) {
         this.self.templateUrl = '/new/template.html';
      }
   }
   ... other resolves
}

This gets called before the template is downloaded and therefor you're allowed to swap out the template url.
