How do I create a custom event in an AngularJs service

问题

I am working on an AngularJs project. I have a service which sets and removes events on some buttons. This service is utilized by another service which I do not want to interact directly with the buttons. However I would like a button click event to be filtered up through the first service and handled in the second one. Since I don't want the second service to be aware of the buttons, I figure I will need to create a custom event in the first service. How can I create a custom event and fire it when a button is clicked?

Thanks in advance.

If you want to send an event between services/directives use broadcast:

$rootScope.$broadcast('buttonPressedEvent');

And recieve it like this:

$rootScope.$on('buttonPressedEvent', function () {
             //do stuff
        })

Any global scope based integration would hurt namespacing and could result terrible side-effects in middle and large size applications. I recommend a bit more complicated but definitely cleaner solution, using proxy service.

1. Create proxy service

angular.module('app').service('userClickingHelper', [
  function() {
    var listeners = [];
    return {
      click: function(args) {
        listeners.forEach(function(cb) {
          cb(args);
        });
      },
      register: function(callback) {
        listeners.push(callback);
      }
    };
  }
]);

2. Create button directive which is using the userClickingHelper as a dependency.

angular.module('app').directive('onDistributedClick', ['userClickingHelper', function (userClickingHelper) {
    return {
        restrict: 'A',
        link: function (scope, element) {
            element.on('click', userClickingHelper.click);
        }
    };
}]);

3. Register your unrelated service with using the proxy.

angular.module('app').service('myUnrelatedService', [function (userClickingHelper) {
    userClickingHelper.register(function(){
        console.log("The button is clicked somewhere");
    });
}]);

The result is an isolated scope of event distribution, yet neither the directive, nor the service knows about each other. It is also easier to unit-test.

I am using similar solution for globally accessable "Loading" modal so I can abstract the way a controller/service is saying "user should not click or anything right now".

You can create and emit an event with the following on your element

ng-click="$emit('customEvent')"

Then in your controller you can use

$rootScope.$on('customEvent', function(){
    // do something
})
