3Agenda
 What is AngularJS?
 Main Concepts
 Tools
 BestPractices
 Wrappingup
/56

“Angular is what HTML would have
been had it been designed for
applications.”
Miško Hevery

6WhatisAngularJS?
 SinglePageApplication(SPA)JavaScriptFramework
 Implementsclient-sideMVW pattern
 No directDOM manipulation, lesscode
 Wellorganizedand highly modular
 Focusedon testing
 Supports all majordesktopand mobilebrowsers

7History
 Createdby MiškoHevery
 Opensourcesince2009
 Supportedby Google
 Large and fast-growingcommunity
WHATISANGULARJS? /56

8SinglePageApplications
 Webapplicationscomposedof a singlepage
 Views(HTML Fragments)aredynamicallyloaded into the page
 Betteruserexperience(no reloads!)
 Calls to the serveraredone asynchronouslybehind the scenes
 Requireartificialhandling of browserhistory, navigation and
bookmarks

9Model-View-Whatever
 Somecallit MVC, othersMVVM...
 In the end, the namedoes not
matter. It handles separationof
concernsefectivelyseparating
presentationlogicfrombusiness
logicand presentationstate.
 Whatevermeans “whatever
worksfor you”.

24Scope
 Objectthat refersto the applicationModel
 Valuesstored in variablesin the Scopebelong to the Model
 The glue betweenthe Controllerand the View
 Scopesarehierarchicaland followthe
DOM structureof the application
 EveryAngular applicationhas a root
scope($rootScope)mapped to the
elementlinked to ngApp directive
MAINCONCEPTS /56
Read More: https://docs.angularjs.org/guide/scope

25Controllers
 JavaScriptconstructorfunctions used to augmentthe Scope
 Newchild scopeis createdand
injectedas a constructor
parameter($scope)
MAINCONCEPTS /56

26Howtousecontrollers
Creatinga controllerinthe globalnamespace
function MyController($scope) {
...
}
Attachinga controllerto the DOM
<div ng-controller="MyController">
MAINCONCEPTS/CONTROLLERS /56

27Whentousecontrollers
 Usecontrollersto:
 Setup theinitialstateofthe$scope object
 Add behaviourtothe$scope object
 Do not use controllersto:
 ManipulateDOM(usedatabindinganddirectivesinstead)
 Formatinput (useformcontrolsinstead)
 Filteroutput (usefiltersinstead)
 Sharecodeorstateacrosscontrollers(useservicesinstead)

29Module
 Reusablecontainerfor differentfeaturesof anapp.
 Candependon othermodules.
Creatinga module
angular.module('myApp', []);
angular.module('myApp', ['myOtherModule']);
Referencinganapp’smainmodule
<html ng-app="myApp">
MAINCONCEPTS /56

31Filters
 A filterformatsthevalueof anexpressionfor display to the user
 Can be used in view templates,controllers,servicesand directives
 You can createyour ownfilters (in a module)
 Built-in filters:
MAINCONCEPTS /56
Read More: https://docs.angularjs.org/guide/filter
Currency
Date
Filter
Json
LimitTo
Lowercase
Number
OrderBy
Uppercase

32Usingfiltersinviewtemplates
Singlefiltersyntax
{{ expression | filter }}
Example:{{ 12 | currency }} returns $12.00
Chainedfilterssyntax
{{ expression | filter1 | filter2 | ... }}
Filterwitharguments
{{ expression | filter:argument1:argument2... }}
Example:{{ 12 | number:2 }} returns 12.00
MAINCONCEPTS/FILTERS /56

33Usingfiltersincontrollers,servicesanddirectives
angular.module('FilterInControllerModule', []).
controller('FilterController', ['filterFilter', function(filterFilter) {
this.array = [
{name: 'Tobias'},
{name: 'Jeff'},
{name: 'Brian'},
{name: 'Igor'},
{name: 'James'},
{name: 'Brad'}
];
this.filteredArray = filterFilter(this.array, 'a');
}]);
Inject filter in controller using
<filter name>Filter syntax
Receive filter function
as a parameter
Call filter with value to format
and additional parameters

34Creatingfilters
angular.module('MyFilterModule', []).
filter('myfilter', function() {
return function(input) {
...
return output;
};
});
User the filter provider to
create a new filter in the
module
Name the filter
Return the filter function. The first
argument is the input value.
Additional arguments can be used.

36Services
 Reusablebusiness logiccomponentes,independentof views,wired
togetherusing dependencyinjection(DI).
 Singletonsgeneratedby a servicefactory.
 Angular only instantiatesa serviceif thereis a dependencyfor it.
 Built-in servicesstart with $.
Examples:$log, $http, $filter,$exceptionHandler
MAINCONCEPTS /56
Read More: https://docs.angularjs.org/guide/services

37Usingaservice
var countryApp = angular.module('countryApp', []);
countryApp.controller('CountryCtrl', ['$scope', '$http', function (scope, http) {
http.get(‘countries.json').success(function(data) {
scope.countries = data;
});
}]);
MAINCONCEPTS/SERVICES /56
Inject $http service using DI
Receive service object
as a parameter
Call method on service

38Creatingaservice
var myModule = angular.module('myModule', []);
myModule.factory('serviceId', function() {
var shinyNewServiceInstance;
//factory function body that constructs shinyNewServiceInstance
return shinyNewServiceInstance;
});
Return a service instance
Register a new factory function for the service

39Recipes
var myApp = angular.module('myApp',[]);
myApp.provider('MyFactory', function() {...});
myApp.factory('MyFactory', function() {...});
myApp.service('MyFactory', function() {...});
myApp.constant('MyConstant', 'My Constant Value');
myApp.value('MyValue', 35);

41Multipleviews
 Most applicationsarecomposedof morethan one view
 In Single PageApplicationsall viewsare renderedin the same page
(LayoutTemplate)which containsall the commonpage elements
 Eachview(PartialTemplate)is placedin its own file and dynamically
loadedinto the LayoutTemplate page
MAINCONCEPTS /56

42Multipleviews

index.html
header.html
a1.html b2.html
a2.html
b1.html
b3.html
a3.html

43Routing
 Routing is providedby the ngRoute module(separatedistribution)
 Routesare declaredvia the $routeProvider fromthe $route service
 Supports deeplinking(history,bookmarksand browserback/forward
buttons)
 Partialviewsarerenderedby the ngView directive
MAINCONCEPTS /56

44Routingconfiguration
var myApp = angular.module('myApp',['ngRoute']);
myApp.config(['$routeProvider',
function($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider.
when('/phones', {
templateUrl: 'partials/phone-list.html',
controller: 'PhoneListCtrl‘
}).
when('/phones/:phoneId', {
templateUrl: 'partials/phone-detail.html',
controller: 'PhoneDetailCtrl'
}).
otherwise({
redirectTo: '/phones'
});
}]);
MAINCONCEPTS/ROUTING /56
Route
Dependency on
ngRoute module
Default Route
Route with variable URL. PhoneId value
will be placed in $routeParams object

47BestPractices
 In Views/Templates
 Usedirectivesforabstractingcommonmarkups,extensions
 Donotusecomplexexpressionsinbindings.Movethemtocontrollers.
 Optimizeuseofbindings.Lessbindings=fasterapplication.
 In Controllers
 Keepthemlight.Useservicestooffloadfunctionality.
 NoDOMmanipulations!Usedirectivesforthat.
/56

48BestPractices
 In Directives
 Preferusingdirectivesaselementsorattributesoverclassesandcomments
 Donotng-prefixforyourdirectives
 Createisolatescopestoavoidacidentaloverridesofproperties
 Createmodulesto group controllers,services,directivesand filters
/56

50Tools
 IDE: Visual Studio, NetBeans,WebStorm
 Utils: JSFiddle, BatarangPlugin for Chrome
 Static Code Analysis:JSHint
 Unit Testing: Karma
/56

52Wrappingup
 AngularJS is a modular JavaScriptSPA framework
 Has a lot of great featuresbut a steeplearningcurve
 Greatfor CRUD applicationsbut not suitable for everytype of
application
 Worksvery wellwith some JavaScriptlibraries(such as jQuery)but
not so wellwith others
 Increasesdeveloperproductivity in small/medium applicationsbut
can be quite heavyfor complexapplications
/56

53Nexttime...
 Custom directives
 Formcontrolsand validation
 Unit testing
 End-to-endtesting
 Animations
