Storing application configuration settings

rated 0 times [ 197] [ 6] / answers: 1 / hits: 25034 / 11 Years ago, wed, july 3, 2013, 12:00:00

What is the best place to store application configuration settings in AngularJS? This could be things like application constants, lookups etc. which could be used both from controllers and services or factories. I could create a separate service that stores and retrieves these things but I was wondering if there is another proper place to store and retrieve those.

You can use the constant() provider!

app.constant('myAppConfig', {ver: '1.2.2', bananas: 6, hammocks: 3, bananaHammocks: true});

This is not a whole lot different from Terry's solution, but constants don't change so they are applied before the other providers. Also, this module can be injected into your config function.

app.config(function(myAppConfig){

    console.log(myAppConfig.bananaHammocks);

});

have fun
