Ionic - Interview Questions
How do you pass data from one view to another in Ionic applications?
Ionic uses AngularJS and UI-router. It means you can use Angular services or UI-router’s state resolve to pass data from one view to another. Since Angular services are singletons, data stored in services can be accessed across other Angular controllers.
 
As mentioned, UI-router provides a resolve configuration. For example:
$stateProvider
  .state('todos', {
    url: '/todos',
    controller: 'TodosCtrl',
    templateUrl: 'todos.html',
    resolve: {
      todos: function(TodosService) {
        return TodosService.getTodos()
      }
    }
  })
One advantage of resolve over stateful services is better testing: as resolve injects dependencies in the controller, it is easy to test them.
