I'm using ng-submit on a form to push data to a Firebase, everything works as expected. What I would like to do is change views at the same time. On the submit button itself I have ng-click set to execute a function using $location. If I place my changeView function in a .controller method I can't utilize $location (specifically, it says - "Error: 'undefined' is not an object (evaluating '$location.path')"). Any help would be super duper.
// This doesn't work and throws the error
myApp.controller('CtrlName', ['$scope', 'angularFireCollection',
function($scope, angularFireCollection, $location) {
$scope.changeView = function(view) {
$location.path(view);
}
}
]);
// This works as expected, but I'm name spacing my functions globally and I will have to change how I'm accessing my Firebase, which isn't really desired.
function CtrlName($scope, angularFireCollection, $location) {
$scope.changeView = function(view) {
$location.path(view);
}
}
Here is my template:
<form role="form" ng-submit="tactics.add(tactic)">
<div class="form-group">
<label>Select Method</label>
<select class="form-control" ng-model="tactic.type">
<option>Email</option>
<option>Display</option>
<option>SMS</option>
<option>Print</option>
</select>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success" ng-click="changeView('/my-tactics')">Save</button>
</form>
You're not injecting the $location
object into your controller. It's listed in your function parameters but you forgot to add it to the list before said function.
myApp.controller('CtrlName', ['$scope', 'angularFireCollection','$location',
function($scope, angularFireCollection, $location) {
...
}]);
