I have registered a state test
with a child .child1
, here parent (test
) working fine . when i navigate to state test.child1
URL gets changed to #/test/child1
but the view remains same , child template not working
angular.module('uiRouterSample.contacts', [
'ui.router'
])
.config(
[ '$stateProvider', '$urlRouterProvider',
function ($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
$stateProvider
.state('test',{
url:'/test',
template:'<a ui-sref="test">Parent</a> -> <a ui-sref=".child1">child1</a>',
controller: ['$scope', '$state', 'contacts', 'utils',
function ( $scope, $state, contacts, utils) {
}]
}).state('test.child1',{
url:'/child1',
template:'Child template working fine'
})
}
]
)
You need a ui-view
directive in the template of the parent state (the test state):
template:'<div ui-view/> <a ui-sref="test">Parent</a> <a ui-sref=".child1">child1</a></div>',
Basically whenever you have a state in ui-router which will have child states, the immediate parent pf that child state must also have a ui-view
directive in its template.
Posting this as answer as I do not have enough reps to comment. As mentioned by Mohammad, you need a ui-view
inside the template of the parent state. The ui-view
in your Index html only allows you to render the parent state(test
state), but in order for .child1 state to be rendered, it needs another ui-view
inside its parent state, which in this case is the test
state.
Thus, configure your test
state's template to contain a ui-view
:
angular.module('uiRouterSample.contacts', ['ui.router'])
.config(['$stateProvider', '$urlRouterProvider',
function ($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
$stateProvider
.state('test',{
url:'/test',
template:'<div ui-view/> <a ui-sref="test">Parent</a> -> <a ui-sref=".child1">child1</a></div>',
controller: ['$scope', '$state', 'contacts', 'utils',
function ( $scope, $state, contacts, utils) {
}]})
.state('test.child1',{
url:'/child1',
template:'Child template working fine'
})
}]
