How to pass parameter by value into controller methods?

[satyajeet anand tripathy]

Hi ,

How would i be able to send data by value.

for example:

<script>

var data="Hello world";

<script>

<input type="button" ng-click="echo(data) ">

$scope.echo(data)

{

console.log(data);

}

Is it possible to send data into methods defined in controller from outside controller .

Thanks

you can do this (If I understand you)

$scope.callMe = function(something){

     alert(something);

};

This will throw error when the page loads. The angular framework will throw error : "something" is not defined.

I guess inside controller the methods don't accept  parameter declarations.

throw up a jsfiddle so we can see what's going on

Hi James,

The alert is coming but the data fed is undefined.

Thanks

In your fiddle, the variables are in differents scopes and you are trying to use globals variables as parameter to angular controller's methods.

There a workaround to do this, but i dont recommend use this way.

A better way is consuming it as angular service:

The data variable has to be exposed in the $scope. Since it's not, it comes out as undefined.

Thanks All, this work around helped. Is there  a way  to push changes in model from DOM events or by a function call from Window scope.  I have built samples with timeout/XHR but DOM seems bit tricky .
