angularjsHow do I use the AngularJS Location Service to update the URL?


The AngularJS Location Service is used to update the URL of a web page. It is a service that can be used to manipulate the browser's URL in various ways, such as changing the path, search, or hash.

Example code

angular.module('myApp', [])
.controller('MyController', ['$scope', '$location', function($scope, $location) {
  $scope.updateUrl = function() {
    $location.url('/new-url');
  };
}]);

The code above creates a controller called MyController that has a function called updateUrl. This function uses the $location service to update the URL to /new-url.

The $location service has several methods that can be used to manipulate the URL. For example, $location.path() can be used to set the path, $location.search() can be used to set query string parameters, and $location.hash() can be used to set the hash fragment.
