UPDATE 2:
I found out where the problem was coming from and I left out the important part.
I'm setting the property in the first controller INSIDE this
$rootScope.$on('anEvent', function (event, data) {
InjectedService.setToken(data.value);
})
But I can't grab it from outside that callback scope. The event that is listened for depends on an $http request so I'm guessing that is the problem. Are there any workarounds to this?
UPDATE:
The order of controllers are the other way around so that the code in secondController is actually being called first in my actual app. I have reordered them accordingly
Question:
I'm trying to grab the services specific property but when I try to grab the service property, I get undefined (using a getter function or not). But when I try to grab the full service, I get everything with the correct property and value.
main.js
angular.module('myApp', ['myModule', 'myServices'])
.controller('firstController', ['InjectedService', function(InjectedService) {
InjectedService.setProperty('Hello World')
}])
othermodule.js:
angular.module('myModule', [])
.controller('secondController', ['InjectedService',
function (InjectedService) {
console.log(InjectedService); // Full object with property == 'hello world'
console.log(InjectedService.property); // I get undefined
console.log(InjectedService.getProperty()); // I get undefined
// interesting to note:
InjectedService.setToken('A different string');
console.log(InjectedService.property); // I get 'A different string'
console.log(InjectedService); // Full object with property == 'Hello World' which was set in second controller
}])
services.js:
angular.module('myServices', function
.service('InjectedService', function(){
var Service = this;
Service.setProperty = function (value) {
Service.property = value;
}
Service.getProperty = function () {
return Service.property;
}
Service.unsetProperty = function () {
Service.property = null;
}
return Service;
})
It seems to me a scope problem, but the variable isn't a primitive type. Any suggestions?
