How to redirect in a ui-router resolver?

Question

I am trying to redirect inside a ui-router resolve and wanted to know if there is a way to reroute in a router resolver. Currently this does not work as one would think.

Answer 1

You can use resolver promises from with the redirectTo configuration

   redirectTo: function($transition$) {
      return $transition$.injector().getAsync('isNew').then(function(isNew) {
        return isNew ? 'estate.edit' : 'estate.view';
      });
    },
