UI-Router: create rules to prevent access to a sta

问题:

In UI-router FAQ, they suggested some way for preventing access to some states based on data.rule method of states. Assuming current user is determined by some $currentUser service.

However this assumption doesn't seem to be true in real world use cases. Because normally this $currentUser service is implemented in a way that it queries current user from the server and probably the best it can return is a promise of the current user. Therefore, at the moment that $stateChangeStart event is triggered, it's quite possible for this promise to not be resolved yet.

So what's the best thing to do, considering the above discussion?

NOTE:

One workaround might be to include a resolve property in every secured state, with a function that returns the promise of the current user. But I really don't like it because it kinda breaks encapsulation in my mind.

回答1:

Solution here would be to postpone UI-Router execution - until $currentUser is resolved. The technique could profit from built in feature: deferIntercept(defer)

$urlRouterProvider

The deferIntercept(defer)

Disables (or enables) deferring location change interception.

If you wish to customize the behavior of syncing the URL (for example, if you wish to defer a transition but maintain the current URL), call this method at configuration time. Then, at run time, call $urlRouter.listen() after you have configured your own $locationChangeSuccess event handler.
