I'm on a new project in a really nice environment sigh ... I'm the FE-Architect/Lead, and as the designs aren't ready yet, I'm doing rather generic stuff atm.
Basically while pondering things - especially my own Auto-Wiring-Mechanism - it came to mind that I need some Service that will assemble my stateful App into the localStorage-saved state: Take the Controllers/Directives that have been saved to localStorage and assemble the page.
I'm coming from a different framework originally and/or tend to think not exactly angularish sometimes. So it turns out, ohhh, non-trivial here, and it came as a surprise. Nice surprise of course, as in terms of challenge :)
So, what I'm looking for can do the following:
- Arrange/Position/Instanciate Directives/HTML without absolute positioning/keeping HTMLs positioning mechanisms intact.
- Being able to drive this Behaviour via the service from the Main/Nav-Controller
I was thinking there might be some kind of nested ng-if setup, but it deems me to be the infinity loop/indefinite recursion route and anyway, not elegent and surely not the angular way.
You can understand the problem at hand better by example hopefully: Imagine you got a dashboard for your app. On that Dashboard you want a customizable set of widgets. How in the heavens would the angular way be to accomplish that?? It's so not angular to manipulate the DOM directly, but pray say, is there some kind of META-DIRECTIVE I can use for dynamic templating?
ANY rather smart/elegant suggestions very welcome :)
Cheers, Joehannes
