Error: $injector:unpr Unknown Provider in angularjs with gulp-uglify

Question

I've added .run function as follow:

coursesApp.run(['$rootScope'], function ($rootScope) {
    $rootScope.slugLinkCompany = function(item, link) {
        if (item) {
            var makeSlug = item.name.toLowerCase().replace(/[^\w ]+/g,'').replace(/ +/g,'-');
            return item.name ? [link, makeSlug, item.id].join('/') : null;
        }
    };
    $rootScope.slugLinkCourse = function(item, link) {
        if (item) {
            var makeSlug = item.title.toLowerCase().replace(/[^\w ]+/g,'').replace(/ +/g,'-');
            return item.title ? [link, makeSlug, item.id].join('/') : null;
        }
    };
    $rootScope.slugLinkCategory = function(item, link) {
        if (item) {
            var makeSlug = item.name.toLowerCase().replace(/[^\w ]+/g,'').replace(/ +/g,'-');
            return item.name ? [link, makeSlug, item.id].join('/') : null;
        }
    };
});

Unfortunately when I uglify it, I've encountered following error.

Error: $injector:unpr

Please let me know anything I've missed. Thanks.

Answer 1

The dependency injection is done incorrectly:

//coursesApp.run(['$rootScope'], function ($rootScope) {
coursesApp.run(['$rootScope', function ($rootScope) {

  //Code here

//});
}]);

The dependency array needs to enclose both the injectables and the function itself.
