Angular provider showing error

Question

In my angular code, in provider showing some error unexpected token

var app= angular.module('myapp',[]);


app.provider('date',function() {
    return {
        $get:function()
        {
            return
            {
                    showDate:function()
                    {
                        return 4;
                    }
            }
        }
    }

);

Seeing the first return statement inside $get makes me wince. See this [topic](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18221963/javascript-function-fails-to-return-object-when-there-is-a-line-break-between-th). — Cosmin Ababei, Mar 15 '16 at 10:02

You forgot to close your first function with a '}'

var app= angular.module('myapp',[]);


app.provider('date',function() {
    return {
        $get:function()
        {
            return
            {
                showDate:function()
                {
                    return 4;
                }
            }
        }
    }
});

Javascript will automatically insert a semicolon after your second return statement. Try

return {
   showDate:function()
   {
        return 4;
   }
}

The provided Fiddle works and does not give any errors. Maybe there is a problem with how you are using the code snippet. – henrikmerlander Mar 16 '16 at 13:16
No getting result. just showing {{message}}. but it should display what i am returning here like 4. i have also tried in plunker(plnkr.co/) – Mandy Sharma Mar 17 '16 at 05:01
I can't help you more without seeing more of your code. There is no {{message}} in your question. – henrikmerlander Mar 17 '16 at 06:34
