Angular updating and clearing factory variables

Question

I\'m creating a single page app in which a user searches for a term, the result gets saved in a variable, and a new page is routed that displays the result. I have this function

If you want it to wipe the value when they change routes (which logout should change routes also, I assume), you can watch the $routeChangeStart event and have it wipe the value whenever it occurs. You put that function in the module.run block:

app.run(function ($rootScope, fact) { 
    $rootScope.$on("$routeChangeStart",function(event, next, current){
        fact.setInformation(null);
    });
});
