I'm new to AngularJS and was experimenting with the code. The thing what I don't get is how to make separate modules. For example, I want to have a module for all the user functions such as login, register, forgot password etc.
I can't find a proper tutorial to learn how to do this. Can someone help me?
I have this in my app.js:
// Ionic Starter App
// angular.module is a global place for creating, registering and retrieving Angular modules
// 'starter' is the name of this angular module example (also set in a <body> attribute in index.html)
// the 2nd parameter is an array of 'requires'
angular.module('starter', ['ionic'])
.run(function($ionicPlatform) {
$ionicPlatform.ready(function() {
if(window.cordova && window.cordova.plugins.Keyboard) {
// Hide the accessory bar by default (remove this to show the accessory bar above the keyboard
// for form inputs)
cordova.plugins.Keyboard.hideKeyboardAccessoryBar(true);
// Don't remove this line unless you know what you are doing. It stops the viewport
// from snapping when text inputs are focused. Ionic handles this internally for
// a much nicer keyboard experience.
cordova.plugins.Keyboard.disableScroll(true);
}
if(window.StatusBar) {
StatusBar.styleDefault();
}
});
})
.controller('AppCtrl', function($scope, $http) {
$scope.data = {};
$scope.submit = function(){
var link = 'http://nikola-breznjak.com/_testings/ionicPHP/api.php';
$http.post(link, {username : $scope.data.username}).then(function (res){
$scope.response = res.data;
});
};
});
And this at my html:
<body ng-app="starter" ng-controller="AppCtrl">
<ion-pane>
<ion-header-bar class="bar-stable">
<h1 class="title">Ionic Blank Starter</h1>
</ion-header-bar>
<ion-content padding="true">
<form ng-submit="submit()">
<label class="item item-input item-stacked-label">
<span class="input-label">Username</span>
<input type="text" name="username" placeholder="enter username" ng-model="data.username">
</label>
<input class="button button-block button-positive" type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit to server">
</form>
<div class="card">
<div class="item item-text-wrap">
Response: <b ng-bind="response"></b>
</div>
</div>
</ion-content>
</ion-pane>
</body>
Edit (What I think it should be):
My app.js:
angular.module('starter', ['ionic','login'])
.run(function($ionicPlatform) {
$ionicPlatform.ready(function() {
if(window.cordova && window.cordova.plugins.Keyboard) {
// Hide the accessory bar by default (remove this to show the accessory bar above the keyboard
// for form inputs)
cordova.plugins.Keyboard.hideKeyboardAccessoryBar(true);
// Don't remove this line unless you know what you are doing. It stops the viewport
// from snapping when text inputs are focused. Ionic handles this internally for
// a much nicer keyboard experience.
cordova.plugins.Keyboard.disableScroll(true);
}
if(window.StatusBar) {
StatusBar.styleDefault();
}
});
})
My usersController.js:
var app = angular.module("login", []);
app.controller('AppCtrl', function($scope, $http) {
$scope.data = {};
$scope.submit = function(){
var link = 'http://nikola-breznjak.com/_testings/ionicPHP/api.php';
$http.post(link, {username : $scope.data.username}).then(function (res){
$scope.response = res.data;
});
};
});
I include the userController.js at my html.

You can easily modularize the code as:
Step1: Define all your module as dependencies in your main module definition
angular.module('starter', [
'ionic',
'starter.login',
'starter.register',
'starter.forgot_password',
//and any other module you want to add
])
Step2: Define these modules separately
//note these can be in same files or separate files all together
angular.module('starter.login',[
'starter.login.services', //sub module for services
'starter.login.directives', //sub module for directives
]);
angular.module('starter.register',[]);
angular.module('starter.forgot_password',[]);
//you can further create submodules for above modules
//eg: sub module for directive, sub module for service etc as
Step3: You can then define separately controllers/services/factories/directives for these modules.
//giving example for just login controller
angular.module('starter.login').controller(function($scope){
//note this module must be defined first before using it with a controller. so files must be loaded in the right order
});
//similarly you will have to define your sub-modules before using them with services/controllers or directives
For more details you can read this very well written blog: https://www.safaribooksonline.com/blog/2014/03/27/13-step-guide-angularjs-modularization/
and follow John Papa's guidelines for structuring your directory: https://github.com/johnpapa/angular-styleguide/blob/master/a1/README.md#modules

Do you need 'starter.' as a prefix when you defining a module? Or can I just create a module with the module name?
Rahul Arora
you can give any name. Just that you can follow the 'parentmoduleName.' thing as a convention to make the code maintainable and understandable. When it comes to large applications having a lot of js files (controllers/services/directives), it is a good practice to follow a convention.

Okay, thank you! I have edited my code based on yours. Can you check it if I understand it correctly?
Rahul Arora
I think that is fine. But for better readability, you should really follow the convention
