Open modal windows with passing data to dialog

In case if someone interests to pass data to dialog:

app.controller('ModalCtrl', function($scope,  $modal) {
      
      $scope.name = 'theNameHasBeenPassed';

      $scope.showModal = function() {
        
        $scope.opts = {
        backdrop: true,
        backdropClick: true,
        dialogFade: false,
        keyboard: true,
        templateUrl : 'modalContent.html',
        controller : ModalInstanceCtrl,
        resolve: {} // empty storage
          };
          
        
        $scope.opts.resolve.item = function() {
            return angular.copy(
                                {name: $scope.name}
                          ); // pass name to resolve storage
        }
        
          var modalInstance = $modal.open($scope.opts);
          
          modalInstance.result.then(function(){
            //on ok button press 
          },function(){
            //on cancel button press
            console.log("Modal Closed");
          });
      };                   
})

var ModalInstanceCtrl = function($scope, $modalInstance, $modal, item) {
    
     $scope.item = item;
    
      $scope.ok = function () {
        $modalInstance.close();
      };
      
      $scope.cancel = function () {
        $modalInstance.dismiss('cancel');
      };
}
