I have a function checkLogin() which sets a variable in a service. This is always run in app.run(...). In one function called by ng-init I want to use this variable to make a call to my backend. The problem is that ng-init is called before, so the call to my backend sends an undefined variable. What should I do to make sure that checkLogin() is always called first?

  • you could use `resolve` property of `state`/`route`, in that you could have `checkLogin()` method check.. so resolve will make that call before loading `templateUrl` with `controller`. you could refer [this answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/22540482/2435473) for more information – Pankaj Parkar Apr 22 '16 at 18:02
  • You should use promises and callbacks to achieve what you want instead of `ng-init`. https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$q – David Meza Apr 22 '16 at 18:13

Like this Here login required is a function of service 

.state('app.dashboard', {
      url: "/dashboard",
      templateUrl: "partials/dashboard.html",
      controller: 'DashboardCtrl',
      activePage:'dashboard',
      resolve: {
        loginRequired: loginRequired
      }

  • This worked, thanks. However, one thing doesn't work. In my index.html page I include a partial navbar.html and inject a controller homeController. However, how do I use resolve here, since it's not a route? – Myone Apr 23 '16 at 08:10
