Recently, I've been working on a controller class called "BaseCtrl" in TypeScript. This particular controller manages global functions for the default HTML page known as "index.html". As a newcomer to TypeScript, I've learned that there are three essential steps to using a controller for an HTML view:
1) In the HTML view, there's no need to explicitly call the controller by using the ng-controller attribute.
2) To make step 1 work seamlessly, it's necessary to utilize a special property like "controllerAs" in the route class of my application. This property helps specify the alias for the controller, such as controllerAs: "bc".
For instance,
$routeProvider
.when("/login", { controller: "LoginCtrl", templateUrl: "app/views/login.html", controllerAs: "lc" });
3) Since $scope isn't utilized, accessing all aspects (methods, properties) of the controller class requires the use of the controller's alias from step 2), like "bc". For example, ng-model="bc.FirstName", and so forth.
The main question here is: There's a controller named "BaseCtrl", but it isn't associated with any route in my application's route class (referenced below). Consequently, there's no specific alias assigned to that controller. How can I then access or call the controller's elements on the default/root "index.html"? Should I revert back to using "$scope" within the controller class code, akin to traditional non-TypeScript methods, to avoid concerns about utilizing a controller's alias in the view? My Angular codebase is currently built using TypeScript.
Your assistance on this matter would be greatly appreciated.
