feat(ngMock): allow mock $controller service to set up controller bindings #11239
Conversation
|
So: Should it be a shallow copy, as extend() currently does? This works better if the dictionary contains native values. |

Adds a new mock for the $controller service, in order to simplify testing using the
bindToController feature.
```js
var dictionaryOfControllerBindings = {
data: [
{ id: 0, phone: '...', name: '...' },
{ id: 1, phone: '...', name: '...' },
]
};
// When the MyCtrl constructor is called, `this.data ~= dictionaryOfControllerBindings.data`
$controller(MyCtrl, myLocals, dictionaryOfControllerBindings);
```
Closes angular#9425

@SonofNun15 / @cesarandreu would an API like this work for you guys? or do you prefer having the actual bindings set up |
|
That looks like exactly what I was hoping for. Bindings are not required from my perspective. Thanks so much! |
|
@caitp this works for me :D. I don't need bindings. I've basically gotten rid of big link functions in my directives. In my link function I'll setup watchers and call controller actions, and handle any kind of DOM transformation in as much isolation as possible. The controller is left responsible for tracking state and providing glue to services. |

okay --- @petebacondarwin if you aren't busy watching the conference, does this look good to you with the typo fixed? |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Do we want to be more strict and say toBe here? I know it doesn't really matter but since you asked the question about shallow copying I guess we could make it clear what the result of that was.

LGTM, merging with tweaked docs. Do we want to change the unit test WRT #11239 (comment) ? |
