带角的Socket.io

Question

I am trying to implement socket.io with angular client. Lets say I am having 3 routes for my application.

http://localhost:4000/#/abc

http://localhost:4000/#/abd

http://localhost:4000/#/abe

Here I am emitting file processing status from backend to client. I only want to display the status to the users who are all in route 3. What is the best way to achieve this in angular?

node.js

io.emit('Test', {
        Test: "Test"
});

javascript

socket.on('Test', function (data) {
    console.log(data);
});

You can check on client side your location through the $location service.

So just do

socket.on('Test', function (data) {
    if ( $location.path().indexOf('/abe') != -1)
    {
           // display status
    }
});
