var app = angular.module('StackOverflow',[]);
function ParentController($scope) {
$scope.parentCounter = 5;
}
function ChildController($scope) {
$scope.childCounter = $scope.parentCounter;
$scope.increaseCounters = function() {
++$scope.parentCounter;
++$scope.childCounter;
};
}
In the example above I have a counter in the parent and the child controllers named parentCounter
and childCounter
respectively. I've also provided a function in the child controller named increaseCounters()
that increases both counters by one.
Both of these counters are displayed on the page:
<div ng-app="StackOverflow">
<div ng-controller="ParentController">
Parent Counter: {{parentCounter}}<br />
<div ng-controller="ChildController">
Child Counter: {{childCounter}}<br />
<a href="javascript:void(0)"
ng-click="increaseCounters()">Increase Counters</a>
</div><!-- END ChildController -->
</div><!-- END ParentController -->
</div><!-- END StackOverflow app -->
The problem is that AngularJS doesn't seem to update the {{parentCounter}}
on the page, and only updates the {{childCounter}}
when the increase counters function is called. Is there anything I have overlooked?
++$scope.parentCounter;
creates a child scope property with name parentCounter
that hides/shadows the parent scope property of the same name.
Add console.log($scope);
to your increaseCounters() function to see it.
One workaround: ++$scope.$parent.parentCounter;
The problem you are experiencing has to do with the way JavaScript prototypal inheritance works. I suggest reading What are the nuances of scope prototypal / prototypical inheritance in AngularJS? -- it has some nice pictures explaining what happens when primitives are created in child scopes.
Because the child controller gets a copy of the parent counter value. If you want to increase the parent controller counter value, you need to execute a function on the parent controller:
function ParentController($scope) {
$scope.parentCounter = 5;
$scope.increaseParent = function() {
++$scope.parentCounter;
};
}
function ChildController($scope) {
$scope.childCounter = $scope.parentCounter;
$scope.increaseCounters = function() {
console.log('-------------------------------------');
console.log('parent before: ' + $scope.parentCounter);
console.log('child before: ' + $scope.childCounter);
$scope.increaseParent();
++$scope.childCounter;
console.log('parent after: ' + $scope.parentCounter);
console.log('child after: ' + $scope.childCounter);
};
}
