Angular ui router - Redirection doesn't work at all

Question

I\'m using ui.router for routing in my Angular app. There is a typical login scenario, where I\'m redirecting a user to the login url if he\'s not logged in. Wi

Answer 1

I used something similar to this:

MyApp.run(['$rootScope', '$state', function ($rootScope, $state) {
  // The event
  $rootScope.$on('$stateChangeStart', function (e, toState, toParams, fromState, fromParams) {
    // Is user already logged in?
    var isUserLoggedIn = $rootScope.isUserLoggedIn();

    if (isUserLoggedIn) {
      // don't let user visit login state, he's already logged in.
      $state.go('home');
      // preventDefault as described in @radim's answer
      e.preventDefault();
    } else if (toState.name === "login") {
      // user is not logged in and is not going to login state right now, send him there first.
      $state.go('login');
      // preventDefault as described in @radim's answer
      e.preventDefault();
    }
  });
}]);
