Full page reload links

[Glen]

Hi, my login buttons for my app are of the sort '/users/auth/
facebook' (using rails + devise + omniauth), but by default Angular is
catching those links and rewriting the location bar without a round
trip to the server. I've been able to get this to work using the
following code:

HTML:

<a href ng-click="externalLink('/users/auth/facebook')">Sign in</a>

Controller method:

$scope.externalLink = function(href) {
return $window.location.href = href;
};


But I was wondering if there was a neater way. I'd like the HTML to
look something like this:

<a href='/users/auth/facebook' ng-no-intercept>Sign in</a>


Is there such a thing?

$location.absUrl();

I don't think that's right. The docs say that absUrl() is a getter only. What I'm after is a neat way to cause a full page reload.

$location.absUrl();

window.location.reload() not working?

[Glen Maddern]

It works, I was just hoping there might be another way. Defining $scope.externalLink(url) isn't too bad.
