Route Angular to New Controller after Login - html

Question

I'm kind of stuck on how to route my angular app to a new controller after login. I have a simple app, that uses 'loginservice'... after logging in, it then routes to /home which has a different template from the index.html(login page).
I want to use /home as the route that displays the partial views of my flightforms controllers. What is the best way to configure my routes so that after login, /home is the default and the routes are called into that particular templates view. Seems easy but I keep getting the /login page when i click on a link which is suppose to pass the partial view into the default.html template:
var app= angular.module('myApp', ['ngRoute']);
app.config(['$routeProvider', function($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider.when('/login', {
templateUrl: 'partials/login.html',
controller: 'loginCtrl'
});
$routeProvider.when('/home', {
templateUrl: 'partials/default.html',
controller: 'defaultCtrl'
});
}]);
flightforms.config(['$routeProvider', function($routeProvider){
//sub pages
$routeProvider.when('/home', {
templateUrl: 'partials/default.html',
controller: 'defaultCtrl'
});
$routeProvider.when('/status', {
templateUrl: 'partials/subpages/home.html',
controller: 'statusCtrl'
});
$routeProvider.when('/observer-ao', {
templateUrl: 'partials/subpages/aobsrv.html',
controller: 'obsvaoCtrl'
});
$routeProvider.when('/dispatch', {
templateUrl: 'partials/subpages/disp.html',
controller: 'dispatchCtrl'
});
$routeProvider.when('/fieldmgr', {
templateUrl: 'partials/subpages/fieldopmgr.html',
controller: 'fieldmgrCtrl'
});
$routeProvider.when('/obs-backoffice', {
templateUrl: 'partials/subpages/obsbkoff.html',
controller: 'obsbkoffCtrl'
});
$routeProvider.when('/add-user', {
templateUrl: 'partials/subpages/users.html',
controller: 'userCtrl'
});
$routeProvider.otherwise({
redirectTo: '/status'
});
}]);
app.run(function($rootScope, $location, loginService) {
var routespermission=['/home']; //route that require login
$rootScope.$on('$routeChangeStart', function(){
if( routespermission.indexOf($location.path()) !=-1)
{
var connected=loginService.islogged();
connected.then(function(msg) {
if(!msg.data) $location.path('/login');
});
}
});
});
and my controllers are simple. Here's a sample of what they look like:
var flightformsControllers = angular.module('flightformsController', []);
flightforms.controller('fieldmgrCtrl', ['$scope','$http','loginService',
function($scope,loginService) {
$scope.txt='You are logged in';
$scope.logout=function(){
loginService.logout();
}
}]);
Any ideas on how to get my partials to display in the /home default.html template would be appreciated.

Answer 1

1) Move all the routing into the main app.config, and remove the duplicate route for /home.
2) change this line
var flightformsControllers = angular.module('flightformsController', []);
to
var flightforms = angular.module('flightforms', []);
3) change the app definition line to inject the flightforms module:
var app= angular.module('myApp', ['ngRoute', 'flightforms']);
That should get ya close.
For one of your comments, its a good idea to have an interecptor which catches any 401 un-authenticated errors from the server. This way, if a user's session expires before a route change, they will still have to login again to start a new session. Something like this in app.config should do it.
$provide.factory('logoutOn401', ['$q', '$injector', function ($q, $injector) {
return {
'responseError': function(response) {
if (response.status === 401) {
$location.path('/login')
return $q.reject();
} else {
return $q.reject(response);
}
}
};
}]);
$httpProvider.interceptors.push('logoutOn401');
