Is it possible with ngRoute to route to the current path? Essentially, I have a scenario where my app will route to a controller/view, then after a little bit of time an event handler can be executed in another part of the application which changes a global object, and the same controller/view should be executed again. I tried just routing to the same path (using location.path), but it appears that ngRoute ignores the request it the apps is currently on that path.

Going by the documentation you can use the $route.reload() method:

Causes $route service to reload the current route even if $location hasn't changed.

As a result of that, ngView creates new scope and reinstantiates the controller.
