Access $stateParams of new state in service called from resolve function with UI Router

Question

Is there a way to access $stateParams for the state you\'re transitioning to from a service called in a resolve function? With ngRoute you\'d use <

Answer 1

You can't inject the the incoming parameters into the service itself, but you can pass them to a function in the service (or you could also assign them to a property in the service).

this plunker shows how to pass them to a function, which in turns stores them to a property in the service. Using a "dummy" property shouldn't hurt, but it is a bit ugly. :)

It might make more sense to pass the parameters to the controller as a resolve property and then hand them out to a service from the controller constructor... that's what I'd do.

In your resolve function in stateprovider

resolve: {
    something: function(MyService, $stateParams){
        return MyService.doSomethingWithParam($stateParams.someParameter);
    }
}

In your service

myService = angular.module('myService', [])
    .factory('MyService', function() {

        var myServiceInstance;

        myServiceInstance.doSomethingWithParam= function(param){
            //...store or do something with your state param here and return result
        };

        return myServiceInstance;
});
