AngularJS - Passing data between pages

angularjs

Solution

You need to create a service to be able to share data between controllers.

app.factory('myService', function() {
 var savedData = {}
 function set(data) {
   savedData = data;
 }
 function get() {
  return savedData;
 }

 return {
  set: set,
  get: get
 }

});

In your controller A:

myService.set(yourSharedData);

In your controller B:

$scope.desiredLocation = myService.get();

Remember to inject myService in the controllers by passing it as a parameter.

Problem

I am an AngularJS starter. I am trying to send data from : Page A : Van Listing page to Page B: Van Update page. When user click the update link for a van, I am invoking a controller and retrieving the van details in the controller. But, I cannot assign the van details to the Page B ( Van Update Page) using the same controller... Error `"Cannot set property 'vanNumber' of undefined"` ``` *** Page A: Van List **** <form name="listVanForm" > <table> <tr> <td ng-controller="VanUpdateCtrl"><a href="#/van-update" ng-click="prePopulateForm(row.members.vanNumber.value )" class="btn btn-small btn-primary">update</a></td> </tr> </table> </form> *** Page B: Van Update **** <div class="container"> <h2>Edit Van </h2> <form name="updateVanForm" novalidate="novalidate" class="form-horizontal" ng-submit="updateCard(formData)"> <div class="control-group"> <label class="control-label" >Van Number:</label> <div class="controls"> <input type="text" id="vanNumber" ng-model="formData.vanNumber" placeholder=""/> </div> </div> </form> </div> *** VanUpdateCtrl ** app.controller('VanUpdateCtrl', ['$scope', 'VanUpdateFactory', '$location', function ($scope, VanUpdateFactory, $location) { //callback for ng-init 'populateDD': $scope.prePopulateForm = function (cardNoParam m) { alert('cardNo = '+cardNoParam); $scope.formData.cardNumber=cardNoParam;} } So, $scope.formData.cardNumber OR $scope.formData in the destination page is not recognised. ```
