      Chapter 1: What is AngularJS?

      What is AngularJS?

      AngularJS is an open source Model-View-Controller framework which is similar to the JavaScript framework.

      Angular JS is probably one of the most popular modern day web frameworks available today. This framework is used for developing mostly Single Page applications. This framework has been developed by a group of developers from Google itself.

      Because of the sheer support of Google and ideas from a wide community forum, the framework is always kept up to date. Also, it always incorporates the latest development trends in the market.

      AngularJS Features

      Angular has the following key features which makes it one of the powerful frameworks in the market.

      MVC – The framework is built on the famous concept of MVC (Model-View-Controller). This is a design pattern used in all modern day web applications. This pattern is based on splitting the business logic layer, the data layer, and presentation layer into separate sections. The division into different sections is done so that each one could be managed more easily.

      Data Model Binding – You don't need to write special code to bind data to the HTML controls. This can be done by Angular by just adding a few snippets of code.

      Writing less code – When carrying out DOM manipulation a lot of JavaScript was required to be written to design any application. But with Angular, you will be amazed with the lesser amount of code you need to write for DOM manipulation.

      Unit Testing ready – The designers at Google not only developed Angular but also developed a testing framework called Karma which helps in designing unit tests for AngularJS applications.

      AngularJS Architecture

      Angular.js follows the MVC architecture, the diagram of the MVC framework as shown below.

      The Controller represents the layer that has the business logic. User events trigger the functions which are stored inside your controller. The user events are part of the controller.

      Views are used to represent the presentation layer which is provided to the end users

      Models are used to represent your data. The data in your model can be as simple as just having primitive declarations. For example, if you are maintaining a student application, your data model could just have a student id and a name. Or it can also be complex by having a structured data model. If you are maintaining a car ownership application, you can have structures to define the vehicle itself in terms of its engine capacity, seating capacity, etc.

      AngularJS Advantages

      Since it's an open source framework, you can expect the number of errors or issues to be minimal.

      Two-way binding – Angular.js keeps the data and presentation layer in sync. Now you don't need to write additional JavaScript code to keep the data in your HTML code and your data later in sync. Angular.js will automatically do this for you. You just need to specify which control is bound to which part of your model.

      Routing – Angular can take care of routing which means moving from one view to another. This is the key fundamental of single page applications; wherein you can move to different functionalities in your web application based on user interaction but still stay on the same page.

      Angular supports testing, both Unit Testing, and Integration Testing.

      It extends HTML by providing its own elements called directives. At a high level, directives are markers on a DOM element (such as an attribute, element name, and comment or CSS class) that tell AngularJS's HTML compiler to attach a specified behavior to that DOM element. These directives help in extending the functionality of existing HTML elements to give more power to your web application.

      Chapter 2: Hello World

      The best way to see the power of an AngularJS Application is to create your first basic program Hello World app in Angular.JS.

      There are many integrated development environments you can use for AngularJS development, some of the popular ones are mentioned below. In our example, we are using Webstorm as our IDE.

      Webstorm

      Sublime Text

      AngularJS Eclipse

      Visual Studio

      Hello world, AngularJS

      The example below shows the easiest way to create your first Hello world application in AngularJS.

       

      en> 

       

          UTF 8>

          Guru99   

       

      app>

      HelloWorldCtrl>{{message}}

          angular.module(app, []).controller(HelloWorldCtrl, function($scope) { 

          $scope.message=Hello World

          } )

       

       

      Code Explanation:

      The "ng-app" keyword is used to denote that this application should be considered as an angular js application. Any name can be given to this application.

      The controller is what is used to hold the business logic. In the h1 tag, we want to access the controller, which will have the logic to display HelloWorld, so we can say, in this tag we want to access the controller named HelloWorldCtrl.

      We are using a member variable called message which is nothing but a placeholder to display the Hello World message.

      The script tag is used to reference the angular.js script which has all the necessary functionality for angular js. Without this reference, if we try to use any AngularJS functions, they will not work.

      Controller is the place where we are actually creating our business logic, which is our controller. The specifics of each keyword will be explained in the subsequent chapters. What is important to note that we are defining a controller method called 'HelloWorldCtrl' which is being referenced in Step2.

      We are creating a function which will be called when our code calls this controller. The $scope object is a special object in AngularJS which is a global object used within Angular.js. The $scope object is used to manage the data between the controller and the view.

      We are creating a member variable called message, assigning it the value of HelloWorld and attaching the member variable to the scope object.

      NOTE: The ng-controller directive is a keyword defined in AngularJS (step#2) and is used to define controllers in your application. Here in our application, we have used the ng-controller keyword to define a controller named 'HelloWorldCtrl'. The actual logic for the controller will be created in (step#5).

      If the command is executed successfully, the following Output will be shown when you run your code in the browser.

      Output:

      The message 'Hello World' will be displayed.

      Chapter 3: Controller

      What is Controller in AngularJs?

      A Controllers in AngularJs takes the data from the View, processes the data, and then sends that data across to the view which is displayed to the end user. The Controller will have your core business logic.

      The controller will use the data model, carry out the required processing and then pass the output to the view which in turn is displayed to the end user.

      What Controller does from Angular's perspective

      Following is a simple definition of working of Angular JS Controller.

      The controller's primary responsibility is to control the data which gets passed to the view. The scope and the view have two-way communication.

      The properties of the view can call functions on the scope. Moreover events on the view can call methods on the scope. The below code snippet gives a simple example of a function.

      The function($scope) which is defined when defining the controller and an internal function which is used to return the concatenation of the $scope.firstName and $scope.lastName.

      In AngularJS when you define a function as a variable, it is known as a Method.

      Data in this way pass from the controller to the scope, and then the data passes back and forth from the scope to the view.

      The scope is used to expose the model to the view. The model can be modified via methods defined in the scope which could be triggered via events from the view. We can define two way model binding from the scope to the model.

      Controllers should not ideally be used for manipulating the DOM. This should be done by the directives which
