I'm working on a mobile app using AngularJS as a framework, currently I have a structure similar to this:
app.config(['$routeProvider', function($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider
.when('/', {
templateUrl : 'pages/home.html',
controller : 'homeCtrl'
})
.when('/one', {
templateUrl : 'pages/one.html',
controller : 'oneCtrl'
})
.when('/two', {
templateUrl : 'pages/two.html',
controller : 'twoCtrl'
});
}]);
app.controller('homeCtrl', ['$scope', function($scope) {
}]);
app.controller('oneCtrl', ['$scope', function($scope) {
}]);
app.controller('twoCtrl', ['$scope', function($scope) {
}]);
And then I'm displaying the content with an ng-view
:
<div class="ng-view></div>
Things are working well but I need to load data from a JSON file to populate all the content of the app. What I want is to make and an AJAX call only once and then pass the data through all my different controllers. In my first attempt, I thought to create a Service with an $http.get()
inside of it and include that in every controller, but it does not work because it makes a different ajax request everytime I inject and use the service. Since I'm new using angular I'm wondering what is the best way or the more "angular way" to achieve this without messing it up.
Edit: I'm adding the code of the service, which is just a simple $http.get
request:
app.service('Data', ['$http', function($http) {
this.get = function() {
$http.get('data.json')
.success(function(result) {
return result;
})
}
});
