I am still very new to Angular.js and am working through setting up my first application. I would like to be able to do the following:<\/p>\n

angular.module('App.controllers', [])\n  .controller('home', function () {\n    $scope.property = true;\n  }]);\n\nangular.module('App', ['App.controllers'])\n  .config(['$routeProvider', function($routeProvider) {\n    $routeProvider.when('\/', {templateUrl: 'partials\/home.html', controller: home});\n  }]);\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
Using this setup the following error is generated:<\/p>\n
Uncaught ReferenceError: home is not defined from App\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
My question is: How can I register controllers using angular.module.controller()<\/code> (or $controllerProvider.register()<\/code> directly) and use the registered controller elsewhere in my app.<\/p>\n
My motivation: I would like to avoid using either global constructor functions as my controllers (as most of the examples on angularjs.org use) or complex namespacing. If I can register and use controllers as single variable names (that are not then put in the global scope) that would be ideal.<\/p>\n
    \n
  1. \n
    Try using a string identifier.<\/p>\n
    routeProvider.when('\/', {templateUrl: 'partials\/home.html', controller: 'home'});<\/code><\/p>\n
    When you use a literal, it is looking for a variable called home<\/code>, but that doesn’t exist in this case.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
  2. \n
    If you are getting controller is not defined error you have to write your controller name within the quotes.<\/p>\n
    or define your controller like this<\/p>\n
    function controllerName()\n{\n   \/\/your code here\n}\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
    refer this: post on this issue<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
