Answer 1

I have created a directive for fancybox

app.directive('fancybox',function($compile, $timeout){
    return {
        link: function($scope, element, attrs) {
            element.fancybox({
                hideOnOverlayClick:false,
                hideOnContentClick:false,
                enableEscapeButton:false,
                showNavArrows:false,
                onComplete: function(){
                    $timeout(function(){
                        $compile($("#fancybox-content"))($scope);
                        $scope.$apply();
                        $.fancybox.resize();
                    })
                }
            });
        }
    }
});

I extended the answer above to use Angular's template cache.

It is invoked in the markup like this:

<div fancybox fancybox-template="template.html">Open Fancybox</div>

The code for the directive is:

app.directive('fancybox', function ($templateRequest, $compile) {
    return {
        scope: true,
        restrict: 'A',
        controller: function($scope) {
            $scope.openFancybox = function (url) {
                $templateRequest(url).then(function(html){
                    var template = $compile(html)($scope);
                    $.fancybox.open({ content: template, type: 'html' }); 
                });
            };
        },
        link: function link(scope, elem, attrs) {
            elem.bind('click', function() {
                var url = attrs.fancyboxTemplate;
                scope.openFancybox(url);
            });
        },
    }
});

Here is a simplified version of a fancybox directive my team and I wrote to open fancyboxes based on a template with a single click.

It is invoked in the markup like this:

<div fancybox ng-click="openFancybox('templateUrl')"> </div>

The code for the directive is:

app.directive('fancybox', function ($compile, $http) {
    return {
        restrict: 'A',

        controller: function($scope) {
             $scope.openFancybox = function (url) {

                $http.get(url).then(function(response) {
                    if (response.status == 200) {

                        var template = angular.element(response.data);
                        var compiledTemplate = $compile(template);
                        compiledTemplate($scope);

                        $.fancybox.open({ content: template, type: 'html' });
                    }
                });
            };
        }
    };
});
