[AngularJS] Angular 1.3 Anuglar hint

angular-hint helps us writing better Angular code and makes finding very common mistakes in our code base easier. For example, did it ever happen to you, that you developed your Angular app, you grabbed a module from somewhere, then you started using the directives that the module comes with, and no matter how much you followed the usage instructions, it simply didn’t work. And after one hour of debugging you found out that you forgot to add the module dependency to your application. Yikes!

These modules are:

angular-hint-controllers - Warns about use of global controllers and hints about best practices for controller naming
angular-hint-directives - Hints about misspelled attributes and tags, directives and more
angular-hint-dom - Warns about use of DOM APIs in controllers
angular-hint-events - Identifies undefined variables in event expressions
angular-hint-interpolation - Notifies of undefined parts of interpolations chains and suggests available variables
angular-hint-modules - Identifies missing module namespaces, undeclared modules, multiple uses of ng-app and more

Install and using `angular-hint`

npm install angular-hint

Once it’s installed, we can embed the source in our application right after Angular itself like this:

<script type="path/to/angular/angular.js"></script>

<script type="path/to/angular-hint/hint.js"></script>

Next, we apply the ng-hint directive in order to actually use the angular-hintmodule:

<body ng-app="myApp" ng-hint>

</body>

By default, ng-hint injects all the mentioned hint modules.

However, if we don’t want to get controller related hints, but are interested in DOM related hints, we can restrict the use of hint modules by using the ng-hint-include directive instead.

The following code only injects angular-hint-dom:

<body ng-app="myApp" ng-hint-include="dom">

</body>

We can even define more than just one hint module if needed:

<body ng-app="myApp" ng-hint-include="dom directives">

</body>

Module hints

If you declared an module:

angular.module('myAppDependency', []);

but forgot to include into your main app:

angular.module('myApp', []);

Now, instead of fiddling around for an hour to find out why myAppDependency’s directives aren’t picked up, angular-hint is telling us that we might missed something. Simply open your browsers console and you should see something like this:

Angular Hint: Modules

  Module "myAppDependency" was created but never loaded.

Controller hints

One of these best practices is, when naming controllers, to suffix them with Controller instead of using short names like Ctrl. angular-hint helps with that too. Let’s take a look what happens when we define a controller with a name that doesn’t have this suffix:

angular.module('myApp', []).controller('AppCtrl', function () {

});

Having a controller registered like this, angular-hint gives us the following warning:

Angular Hint: Controllers

  The best practice is to name controllers ending with 'Controller'.

  Check the name of 'AppCtrl'

Directive hints

Example where error might happens:

<ul>

  <li ng-repaet="i in [1,2,3,4]">

    <!-- more dom goes here -->

  </li>

</ul>

However, when angular-hint is activated, we get the following very useful warning:

Angular Hint: Directives

  There was an AngularJS error in LI element.

  Found incorrect attribute "ng-repaet" try "ng-repeat"
