$location.path doesn't change in a factory with AngularJS

Question

My factory looks like:

\'use strict\';

angular.module(\'myApp\')
  .factory(\'httpInterceptor\',[\'$q\',\'$location\', \'$rootScope\', function($q, $locatio         


        

Answer 1

There are certain cases where $location will not redirect if it is outside angular's apply cycle. Try wrapping the $location inside the $apply.

$rootScope.$apply( function(){$location.path('/somelocatin'); } );
