Is it possible to create an HTML fragment in an AngularJS controller and have this HTML shown in the view?
This comes from a requirement to turn an inconsistent JSON blob into a nested list of id: value pairs. Therefore the HTML is created in the controller and I am now looking to display it.
I have created a model property, but cannot render this in the view without it just printing the HTML.
Update
It appears that the problem arises from angular rendering the created HTML as a string within quotes. Will attempt to find a way around this.
Example controller :
var SomeController = function () {
this.customHtml = '<ul><li>render me please</li></ul>';
}
Example view :
<div ng:bind="customHtml"></div>
Gives :
<div>
"<ul><li>render me please</li></ul>"
</div>
For Angular 1.x, use ng-bind-html in the HTML:
<div ng-bind-html="thisCanBeusedInsideNgBindHtml"></div>
At this point you would get a attempting to use an unsafe value in a safe context error so you need to either use ngSanitize or $sce to resolve that.
$sce
Use $sce.trustAsHtml() in the controller to convert the html string.
$scope.thisCanBeusedInsideNgBindHtml = $sce.trustAsHtml(someHtmlVar);
ngSanitize
There are 2 steps:
include the angular-sanitize.min.js resource, i.e.:
<script src="lib/angular/angular-sanitize.min.js"></script>
In a js file (controller or usually app.js), include ngSanitize, i.e.:
angular.module('myApp', ['myApp.filters', 'myApp.services',
'myApp.directives', 'ngSanitize'])
You can also create a filter like so:
var app = angular.module("demoApp", ['ngResource']);
app.filter("trust", ['$sce', function($sce) {
return function(htmlCode){
return $sce.trustAsHtml(htmlCode);
}
}]);
Then in the view
<div ng-bind-html="trusted_html_variable | trust"></div>
Note: This filter trusts any and all html passed to it, and could present an XSS vulnerability if variables with user input are passed to it.
Angular JS shows HTML within the tag
The solution provided in the above link worked for me, none of the options on this thread did. For anyone looking for the same thing with AngularJS version 1.2.9
Here's a copy:
Ok I found solution for this:
JS:
$scope.renderHtml = function(html_code)
{
return $sce.trustAsHtml(html_code);
};
HTML:
<p ng-bind-html="renderHtml(value.button)"></p>
EDIT:
Here's the set up:
JS file:
angular.module('MyModule').controller('MyController', ['$scope', '$http', '$sce',
function ($scope, $http, $sce) {
$scope.renderHtml = function (htmlCode) {
return $sce.trustAsHtml(htmlCode);
};
$scope.body = '<div style="width:200px; height:200px; border:1px solid blue;"></div>';
}]);
HTML file:
<div ng-controller="MyController">
<div ng-bind-html="renderHtml(body)"></div>
</div>
Fortunately, you don't need any fancy filters or unsafe methods to avoid that error message. This is the complete implementation to properly output HTML markup in a view in the intended and safe way.
The sanitize module must be included after Angular:
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.26/angular.js"></script>
<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.26/angular-sanitize.js"></script>
Then, the module must be loaded:
angular.module('app', [
'ngSanitize'
]);
This will allow you to include markup in a string from a controller, directive, etc:
scope.message = "<strong>42</strong> is the <em>answer</em>.";
Finally, in a template, it must be output like so:
<p ng-bind-html="message"></p>
Which will produce the expected output: 42 is the answer.
I have tried today, the only way I found was this
<div ng-bind-html-unsafe="expression"></div>
ng-bind-html-unsafe no longer works.
This is the shortest way:
Create a filter:
myApp.filter('unsafe', function($sce) { return $sce.trustAsHtml; });
And in your view:
<div ng-bind-html="customHtml | unsafe"></div>
P.S. This method doesn't require you to include the ngSanitize module.
on html
<div ng-controller="myAppController as myCtrl">
<div ng-bind-html-unsafe="myCtrl.comment.msg"></div>
OR
<div ng-bind-html="myCtrl.comment.msg"></div
on controller
mySceApp.controller("myAppController", function myAppController( $sce) {
this.myCtrl.comment.msg = $sce.trustAsHtml(html);
works also with $scope.comment.msg = $sce.trustAsHtml(html);
I found that using ng-sanitize did not allow me to add ng-click in the html.
To solve this I added a directive. Like this:
app.directive('htmldiv', function($compile, $parse) {
return {
restrict: 'E',
link: function(scope, element, attr) {
scope.$watch(attr.content, function() {
element.html($parse(attr.content)(scope));
$compile(element.contents())(scope);
}, true);
}
}
});
And this is the HTML:
<htmldiv content="theContent"></htmldiv>
Good luck.
Just did this using ngBindHtml by following angular(v1.4) docs,
<div ng-bind-html="expression"></div>
and expression can be "<ul><li>render me please</li></ul>"
Make sure you include ngSanitize in the module's dependencies.
Then it should work fine.
Another solution, very similar to blrbr's except using a scoped attribute is:
angular.module('app')
.directive('renderHtml', ['$compile', function ($compile) {
return {
restrict: 'E',
scope: {
html: '='
},
link: function postLink(scope, element, attrs) {
function appendHtml() {
if(scope.html) {
var newElement = angular.element(scope.html);
$compile(newElement)(scope);
element.append(newElement);
}
}
scope.$watch(function() { return scope.html }, appendHtml);
}
};
}]);
And then
<render-html html="htmlAsString"></render-html>
Note you may replace element.append() with element.replaceWith()
there is one more solution for this problem using creating new attribute or directives in angular.

(function() {
var app = angular.module('gemStore', []);
app.directive(" <div ng-show="tab.isSet(2)" product-specs>", function() {
return {
restrict: 'E',
templateUrl: "product-specs.html"
};
});
index.html
<div>
<product-specs> </product-specs>//it will load product-specs.html file here.
</div>
or
<div product-specs>//it will add product-specs.html file
or
<div ng-include="product-description.html"></div>
https://docs.angularjs.org/guide/directive
you can also use ng-include.
<div class="col-sm-9 TabContent_container" ng-include="template/custom.html">
</div>
you can use "ng-show" to show hide this template data.
here is the solution make a filter like this
.filter('trusted',
function($sce) {
return function(ss) {
return $sce.trustAsHtml(ss)
};
}
)
and apply this as a filter to the ng-bind-html like
<div ng-bind-html="code | trusted">
and thank to Ruben Decrop
Use
<div ng-bind-html="customHtml"></div>
and
angular.module('MyApp', ['ngSanitize']);
For that, you need to include angular-sanitize.js,
for example in your html-file with
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.4.0/angular-sanitize.js"></script>
Here's a simple (and unsafe) bind-as-html directive, without the need for ngSanitize:
myModule.directive('bindAsHtml', function () {
return {
link: function (scope, element, attributes) {
element.html(scope.$eval(attributes.bindAsHtml));
}
};
});
Note that this will open up for security issues, if binding untrusted content.
Use like so:
<div bind-as-html="someHtmlInScope"></div>
Working example with pipe to display html in template with Angular 4.
1.Crated Pipe escape-html.pipe.ts
`
import { Pipe, PipeTransform } from '#angular/core';
import { DomSanitizer } from '#angular/platform-browser';
#Pipe({name : 'keepHtml', pure : false})
export class EscapeHtmlPipe implements PipeTransform{
constructor(private sanitizer : DomSanitizer){
}
transform(content){
return this.sanitizer.bypassSecurityTrustHtml(content);
}
}
`
2. Register pipe to app.module.ts
import {EscapeHtmlPipe} from './components/pipes/escape-html.pipe';
declarations: [...,EscapeHtmlPipe]
Use in your template
<div class="demoPipe" [innerHtml]="getDivHtml(obj.header) | keepHtml">
getDivHtml() { //can return html as per requirement}
Please add appropriate implementation for getDivHtml in associated component.ts file.
Just simple use [innerHTML], like below:
<div [innerHTML]="htmlString"></div>
Before you needed to use ng-bind-html...
I have this angular app that I am running off only one webpage of my site.
I have a main application that uses another module I made as a dependency.
The problem I am having is that nothing inside my controller is being ran. Why won't my controller run?
My route does bring in the view however so I know that the module is working.
I got rid of my data service to be certain that it was not it.
The console.log before the function outputs, but nothing in the function runs.
I also have no console errors.
app.js:
(function(){
'use strict';
var dependencies = [
'ghpg',
'ngRoute'
];
angular.module('blogger', dependencies)
.config(Config);
Config.$inject = ['$locationProvider']
function Config($locationProvider){
$locationProvider.hashPrefix('!');
}
if (window.location.hash === '#_=_'){
window.location.hash = '#!';
}
//bootstrap angular
angular.element(document).ready(function(){
angular.bootstrap(document, ['ghpg']);
});
})();
module:
(function(){
'use strict';
var dependencies = [ 'ngRoute' ];
angular.module('ghpg', dependencies)
.run(init)
init.$inject = ['$rootScope','$location' ];
function init($rootScope, $location){
var vm = this;
}
})();
View:
<div class="container-fluid" data-ngController="blogController as vm">
<h2> Articles </h2>
<div class="post-listing" data-ng-repeat=" post in vm.data">
<p> {{ post }} </p>
</div>
</div>
Controller:
(function(){
'use strict';
angular
.module('ghpg')
.controller('blogController', blogController);
blogController.$inject = ['$scope'];
////
console.log("In controller file");
function blogController($scope){
console.log('running controller');
var vm = this;
vm.data = blogContent.getContent();
console.log(vm.data);
}
})();
I am wondering if it has something to do with bootstrapping my application? (But it all still works even without the explicit ng-app, so I am thinking that my bootstrapping does work)
My next best guess is that my controller in my html is not being set correctly, but every time I mess with it I either get the same result or an error in the console, and it still doesn't work.
blogController.$inject = ['$scope','blogController']
you're trying to inject your controller into your controller. Change it to
blogController.$inject = ['$scope'] and function blogController($scope).
Did you mean to write? blogController.$inject = ['$scope','blogContent']
I see you're calling a method on blogContent and I don't see it injected anywhere.
Edit
data-ngController should be data-ng-controller.
Question: Why isn't my (previously working) AngularJS directive being called after splitting a module into separate files?
Background: I had my postcards module contained in a single file. I am trying, unsuccessfully, to split it. The postcards.factories and postcards.controllers file are working fine. I cannot get the single directive in postcards.directives to function. I have been successful at doing exactly this with a different, far more complex module.
Research: I have read through a couple SO posts, like this one and this one without much luck. Those posts seems to focus on the initial declaration of the module without the required [].
Main Module - postcards
var postcardsApp = angular.module('postcards', ['postcards.directives', 'postcards.factories', 'postcards.controllers']);
postcards.directives
var postcardAppDirectives = angular.module('postcards.directives', ['postcards.controllers']);
postcardAppDirectives.directive('numPostcards', function () {
return {
restrict: "AE",
template: '{{ ctrl.numPostcards }}',
controller: 'postcardDirectiveController as ctrl'
}
});
postcards.controllers
var PostcardsControllers = angular.module('postcards.controllers', ['postcards.factories']);
PostcardsControllers.controller("postcardDirectiveController", ['PostcardFactory',
function (PostcardFactory) {
var _this = this;
PostcardFactory.getNumPostcards().$promise.then(function (data) {
console.log(data);
_this.numPostcards = data['numPostcards'];
});
}]);
// This controller works fine.
PostcardsControllers.controller('PostcardMainController', ['PostcardFactory', function (PostcardFactory) {...}
postcards.factories
// These are retrieving data fine.
var POSTCARD_URL = 'http://' + BASEURL + '/api/v1/postcards/';
var PostcardsFactories = angular.module('postcards.factories', []);
PostcardsFactories.factory('Inbox', ['$resource', function ($resource) {
return $resource(POSTCARD_URL);
}
]);
// More factories pulling data from my API here...
PostcardsFactories.factory('PostcardFactory', ['$http', 'Inbox', 'Sent', 'PostcardDetail', 'NewPostcard', 'UnreadCount', '$q',
function ($http, Inbox, Sent, PostcardDetail, NewPostcard, UnreadCount, $q) {
var PostcardFactory = {}
// Get count of all unread messages sent TO a member
PostcardFactory.getNumPostcards = function () {
return UnreadCount.query()
};
... // Tons of stuff in here
return PostcardFactory
}
Main App var - To show that postcards is included as a dependency
var app = angular.module('mainApp', ['ngResource', 'boat', 'members', 'location', 'trips',
'angular-jwt', 'tools', 'carousel', 'navbar', 'dashboard', 'postcards', 'widgets', 'ui.bootstrap', 'ui.router']);
HTML calling the directive
<li ng-if="navCtrl.isLoggedIn()">
<a ui-sref="dashboard.postcards">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-envelope" style="color: dodgerblue"></span>
<span style="margin-left: -3px; margin-top: -15px; background-color: red; opacity: .75;" class="badge">
<num-messages></num-messages>
</span>
</a>
</li>
Included in HTML file
<script src="./static/app/postcards/postcards.js"></script>
<script src="./static/app/postcards/postcards_factories.js"></script>
<script src="./static/app/postcards/postcards_controllers.js"></script>
<script src="./static/app/postcards/postcards_directives.js"></script>
Question Restatement: Why isn't my directive being called?
Additional Question: I don't really grok when I need to include other modules as part of the .module('myModule', [...]) declaration.
Question answered - in the stupidest way possible.
<num-messages></num-messages> was not refactored by a colleague to reflect the directive's name change to numPostcards. I did not check it.
Now being called successfully with <num-postcards></num-postcards>.
Sorry, #Phil.
So I have a bootstrap list:
<div class="ajax_company_list" ng-app="app">
<div class='list-group' ng-controller="PolicyController as policyCtrl">
<a href="#" class='list-group-item' ng-repeat="company in policyCtrl.companies">{{company.primary_name}}
</a>
<div id="loadingIcon" class='list-group-item'>
Loading...
</div>
</div>
</div>
Here is my Angular Javascript:
var app = angular.module('app', []);
app.controller('PolicyController', ['$scope', 'CompanyService', function($scope, CompanyService) {
$scope.companies = [
{
policy_number: 12345,
primary_name: "test"
}
];
$scope.getCompanies = function() {
CompanyService.fetchCompanies()
.success(function(data) {
$scope.companies = data.companies;
})
}
}]);
app.factory('CompanyService', ['$http', function($http) {
return {
fetchCompanies: function() {
return $http.get('http://spoonerinc:8886//json/glmod_Spooner-Inc?pagenum=1');
}
}
}]);
I basically have 2 questions. If I set $scope.companies equal to an array of objects, it does not show up but if I change $scope.companies to this.companies, it starts working again. Why is this?
2nd question, I can see the service call running in my net tab and can console.log the data and it reads fine. But it is not updating my actual list at all and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
I am fairly new to Angular so if there is any advice on how I can do my code better, please let me know.
Thanks!
Because you are using the "Controller As" syntax, which effectively publishes the entire controller object to the scope.
What happens under the hood looks something like this:
function myCtrl($scope){
$scope['someAlias'] = this;
}
If you are going to use the controller as syntax, it's best to use a more object based approach instead of pushing things onto the $scope
Either on the prototype:
function myCtrl(companiesService){
this.companiesService = companiesService;
this.init();
}
myCtrl.prototype = {
init:function(){
var _this = this;
_this.companiesService.get()
.then(function(result){
_this.companies = result.data;
});
}
};
Or as closure style object:
function myCtrl(comapniesService){
var ctrl = {};
function init(){
companiesService.get()
.then(function(result){
ctrl.companies = result.data;
});
}
return ctrl;
}
For your second question, I think your problem is here:
ng-repeat="company in policyCtrl.companies"
You don't need to specify the controller as a prefix, since you've already declared it with ng-controller. It should be:
ng-repeat="company in companies"
And ng-controller to be:
ng-controller="PolicyController"
My guess is that the first problem will go away once you correct this.
This is a long shot, but has anyone seen this error before? I am trying to add 'Transporters' using express, angular and mongoDB. I get this error whenever I access a page ruled by the transporters controller:
Error: [ng:areq] http://errors.angularjs.org/1.2.12/ng/areq?p0=TransportersController&p1=not%20aNaNunction%2C%20got%20undefined

The transporters controller looks like this:
'use strict';
angular.module('mean.transporters').controller('TransportersController', ['$scope', '$routeParams', '$location', 'Global', 'Transporters', function ($scope, $routeParams, $location, Global, Transporters) {
$scope.global = Global;
$scope.create = function() {
var transporter = new Transporters({
name: this.name,
natl_id: this.natl_id,
phone: this.phone
});
transporter.$save(function(response) {
$location.path('transporters/' + response._id);
});
this.title = '';
this.content = '';
};
$scope.remove = function(transporter) {
if (transporter) {
transporter.$remove();
for (var i in $scope.transporters) {
if ($scope.transporters[i] === transporter) {
$scope.transporters.splice(i, 1);
}
}
}
else {
$scope.transporter.$remove();
$location.path('transporters');
}
};
$scope.update = function() {
var transporter = $scope.transporter;
if (!transporter.updated) {
transporter.updated = [];
}
transporter.updated.push(new Date().getTime());
transporter.$update(function() {
$location.path('transporters/' + transporter._id);
});
};
$scope.find = function() {
Transporters.query(function(transporters) {
$scope.transporters = transporters;
});
};
$scope.findOne = function() {
Transporters.get({
transporterId: $routeParams.transporterId
}, function(transporter) {
$scope.transporter = transporter;
});
};
}]);
In my views I call the list and create methods. They generate the above error
I got this from the angular docs for ng:areq though still can't figure what's going on
AngularJS often asserts that certain values will be present and truthy
using a helper function. If the assertion fails, this error is thrown.
To fix this problem, make sure that the value the assertion expects is
defined and truthy.
Here's the view that calls the controller public/views/transporters/list.html:
<section data-ng-controller="TransportersController" data-ng-init="find()">
<ul class="transporters unstyled">
<li data-ng-repeat="transporter in transporters">
<span>{{transporter.created | date:'medium'}}</span> /
<h2><a data-ng-href="#!/transporters/{{transporter._id}}">{{transporter.name}}</a></h2>
<div>{{transporter.natl_id}}</div>
<div>{{transporter.phone}}</div>
</li>
</ul>
<h1 data-ng-hide="!transporters || transporters.length">No transporters yet. <br> Why don't you Create One?</h1>
</section>
Transporters service code:
angular.module('transporterService', [])
.factory('Transporter', ['$http', function($http){
// all return promise objects
return {
get: function(){
return $http.get('/api/transporters');
},
create: function(transporterData){
return $http.post('/api/transporters', transporterData);
},
delete: function(id){
return $http.delete('/api/transporters/'+id);
}
};
}]);
I experienced this error once. The problem was I had defined angular.module() in two places with different arguments.
Eg:
var MyApp = angular.module('MyApp', []);
in other place,
var MyApp2 = angular.module('MyApp', ['ngAnimate']);
I've gotten that error twice:
1) When I wrote:
var app = module('flapperNews', []);
instead of:
var app = angular.module('flapperNews', []);
2) When I copy and pasted some html, and the controller name in the html did not exactly match the controller name in my app.js file, for instance:
index.html:
<script src="app.js"></script>
...
...
<body ng-app="flapperNews" ng-controller="MainCtrl">
app.js:
var app = angular.module('flapperNews', []);
app.controller('MyCtrl', ....
In the html, the controller name is "MainCtrl", and in the js I used the name "MyCtrl".
There is actually an error message embedded in the error url:
Error: [ng:areq]
http://errors.angularjs.org/1.3.2/ng/areq?p0=MainCtrl&p1=not%20a%20function%2C%20got%20undefined
Here it is without the hieroglyphics:
MainCtrl not a function got undefined
In other words, "There is no function named MainCtrl. Check your spelling."
I ran into this issue when I had defined the module in the Angular controller but neglected to set the app name in my HTML file. For example:
<html ng-app>
instead of the correct:
<html ng-app="myApp">
when I had defined something like:
angular.module('myApp', []).controller(...
and referenced it in my HTML file.
you forgot to include the controller in your index.html. The controller doesn't exist.
<script src="js/controllers/Controller.js"></script>
I had same error and the issue was that I didn't inject the new module in the main application
var app = angular.module("geo", []);
...
angular
.module('myApp', [
'ui.router',
'ngResource',
'photos',
'geo' //was missing
])
Check the name of your angular module...what is the name of your module in your app.js?
In your TransportersController, you have:
angular.module('mean.transporters')
and in your TransportersService you have:
angular.module('transporterService', [])
You probably want to reference the same module in each:
angular.module('myApp')
I had this error too, I changed the code like this then it worked.
html
<html ng-app="app">
<div ng-controller="firstCtrl">
...
</div>
</html>
app.js
(function(){
var app = angular.module('app',[]);
app.controller('firstCtrl',function($scope){
...
})
})();
You have to make sure that the name in module is same as ng-app
then div will be in the scope of firstCtrl
The same problem happened with me but my problem was that I wasn't adding the FILE_NAME_WHERE_IS_MY_FUNCTION.js
so my file.html never found where my function was
Once I add the "file.js" I resolved the problem
<html ng-app='myApp'>
<body ng-controller='TextController'>
....
....
....
<script src="../file.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
:)
I've got that error when the controller name was not the same (case sensitivity!):
.controller('mainCOntroller', ... // notice CO
and in view
<div class="container" ng-controller="mainController"> <!-- notice Co -->
I got this same error when I included the entire controller file name in the Routes like this:
app.config(function($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider
.when('/', {
templateUrl: 'home.html',
controller: 'mainController.js'
})
.when('/portfolio', {
templateUrl: 'portfolio.html',
controller: 'mainController.js'
})
});
When it should be
app.config(function($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider
.when('/', {
templateUrl: 'home.html',
controller: 'mainController'
})
.when('/portfolio', {
templateUrl: 'portfolio.html',
controller: 'mainController'
})
});
Angular takes certain things you name like the app and controller and expounds on them in directives and across your app, take care to name everything consistently and check for this when debugging
I know this sounds stupid, but don't see it on here yet :). I had this error caused by forgetting the closing bracket on a function and its associated semi-colon since it was anonymous assigned to a var at the end of my controller.
It appears that many issues with the controller (whether caused by injection error, syntax, etc.) cause this error to appear.
This happened to me when I have multiple angular modules in the same page
I encountered this error when I used partial views
One partial view had
<script src="~/Scripts/Items.js"></script>
<div ng-app="SearchModule">
<div ng-controller="SearchSomething" class="col-md-1">
<input class="searchClass" type="text" placeholder="Search" />
</div>
</div>
Other had
<div ng-app="FeaturedItems" ng-controller="featured">
<ul>
<li ng-repeat="item in Items">{{item.Name}}</li>
</ul>
</div>
I had them in same module with different controller and it started working
I had the same error in a demo app that was concerned with security and login state. None of the other solutions helped, but simply opening a new anonymous browser window did the trick.
Basically, there were cookies and tokens left from a previous version of the app which put AngularJS in a state that it was never supposed to reach. Hence the areq assertions failed.
There's also another way this could happen.
In my app I have a main module that takes care of the ui-router state management, config, and things like that. The actual functionality is all defined in other modules.
I had defined a module
angular.module('account', ['services']);
that had a controller 'DashboardController' in it, but had forgotten to inject it into the main module where I had a state that referenced the DashboardController.
Since the DashboardController wasn't available because of the missing injection, it threw this error.
In my case I included app.js below the controller while app.js should include above any controller like
<script src="js/app.js"></script>
<script src="js/controllers/mainCtrl.js"></script>
I had done everything right other than setting controller in $stateProvider. I used filename rather than variable name.
Following code is wrong:
formApp.config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
$stateProvider
.state('management', {
url: '/management',
templateUrl: 'Views/management.html',
controller: 'Controllers/ManagementController.js'
});
and this is the right approach;
formApp.config(function($stateProvider, $urlRouterProvider) {
$stateProvider
.state('management', {
url: '/management',
templateUrl: 'Views/management.html',
controller: 'ManagementController'
});
Make sure you noticed;
controller: 'ManagementController'
And for those who are curious about my controller file ManagementController.js, it looks like the this;
formApp.controller('ManagementController', ['$scope', '$http', '$filter', '$state',function(scope, http, filter, state) {
scope.testFunc = function() {
scope.managementMsg = "Controller Works Fine.";
};
}]);

The error will be seen when your controller could not be found in the application. You need to make sure that you are correct using values in ng-app and ng-controller directives
This happened to me when using ng-include, and the included page had controllers defined. Apparently that's not supported.
Controller loaded by ng-include not working
I have made a stupid mistake and wasted lot of time so adding this answer over here so that it helps someone
I was incorrectly adding the $scope variable(dependency)(was adding it without single quotes)
for example what i was doing was something like this
angular.module("myApp",[]).controller('akshay',[$scope,
where the desired syntax is like this
angular.module("myApp",[]).controller('akshay',['$scope',
// include controller dependency in case of third type
var app = angular.module('app', ['controller']);
// first type to declare controller
// this doesn't work well
var FirstController = function($scope) {
$scope.val = "First Value";
}
//Second type of declaration
app.controller('FirstController', function($scope) {
$scope.val = "First Controller";
});
// Third and best type
angular.module('controller',[]).controller('FirstController', function($scope) {
$scope.val = "Best Way of Controller";
});
