How to make so a controller block is executed ever

Question

I have a controller attached to a state, and everytime said state is accessed, I need my controller to run a block where I do a verification.

How can I do this?

Answer 1

controller do execute each time you can call an function for example init() function like below

.controller('test',function($scope){
  $scope.init = function( ){
  // your code block here
   }
  $scope.init();
 });

Answer 2

In order to call a particular function every time your location changes, you can also define the function in html as:

          <div ng-init="allDealerListing()">

So whenever the particular div in html is loaded the function is called automatically.

Hence upon change of state function is called

Answer 3

For reloading controller every time you should mention reload: true option on you .state declaration of ui-router

Sample Code

$stateProvider
.state('state1', {
      templateUrl: 'state1.html',
      controller: `state1Ctrl`,
      reload: true //forcefully reload route and load controller again
})
