To control the flow of data AngularJS mainly relies on controllers. It is defined using ng-controller directive. Controller contain attributes, properties and functions.
Example of Controller:
<html> <head> <title>AngularJS Controllers</title> <script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.3.14/angular.min.js"></script> </head> <body> <h2>AngularJS Controllers</h2> <div ng-app="ngApp" ng-controller="nameController"> First name: <input type="text" ng-model="name.firstName"><br><br> Last name: <input type="text" ng-model="name.lastName"><br> <br> Full name: {{name.fullName()}} </div> <script> var ngApp = angular.module("ngApp", []); ngApp.controller('nameController', function($scope) { $scope.name = { firstName: "Mark", lastName: "Taylor", fullName: function() { var nameObject; nameObject = $scope.name; return nameObject.firstName + " " + nameObject.lastName; } }; }); </script> </body> </html>
- nameController defined with $scope as argument.
- $scope refers to the application which is to use the nameController object.
- $scope.name is property of nameController object.
- $scope.name object has two properties: firstName and lastName.
