Angularjs resolve with controller as string

Question

My style of writing angular controllers is like this (using controller name instead of function)

angular.module(\'mymodule\', [
])
    .controller(\'myContro

@pkozlowski.opensource 's answer works, but I don't really want to mess up my routing and and controllers, because I always keep it separated (from Yo Generator). Actually, we can also have controller and resolve(r) all as string/name (NOT function).

angular.module('mymodule', [
])
  .controller('myController', [
      '$scope', 'myModelCombination'
      function($scope, myModelCombination) {
          // myModelCombination[0] === (resolved) myModel 
          // myModelCombination[1] === (resolved) myModel2

      }
  ])
  .controller('myController2', [
      '$scope', 'myModel'
      function($scope, myModel) {
          // Some code here

      }
  ])
  .factory('myModel', [
      '$scope',
      function($scope) {
          // return a promise

      }
  ])
  .factory('myModel2', [
      '$scope',
      function($scope) {
          // return a promise

      }
  ])
  .factory('myModelCombination', [
      '$scope', 'myModel', 'myModel2'
      function($scope) {
          return $q.all(['myModel', 'myModel2']);

      }
  ]);

Then in your routing file this should be added

$routeProvider.when('/someroute', {
    templateUrl: 'partials/someroute.html', 
    resolve: ['myModel'] //ALWAYS IN ARRAY)
});
$routeProvider.when('/myModelCombination', {
    templateUrl: 'partials/someroute2.html', 
    resolve: ['myModel'] //ALWAYS IN ARRAY)
});
