The difference between provider, factory and service in AngularJS

[@deepanshurastogi007]

The super clear , super powerful , best ever explanation ever existed. Nobody explained like you, no bullshit, TO THE POINT explaination. you're the HERO for angularjs noobs.

[@uditkaushik8836]

one of the best video out there which tells the difference between service, factory and providers in AngularJS and tells the use case of each type of providers. Thanks.

[@amitsaini7749]

Wow. Now this is what you call an explanation. There cant be any better explanation than this. Thankyou so much

[@itsimpl6257]

Finally I cleared my confusion between provider, service and factory. You are really fast in typing. Thanks.

[@rudirnhj1311]

By far the best video explaining the difference between the different providers - absolute loved it and actually got it the first time around. Props for the link at the end to your website with the cheat sheet!

[@trejo_o]

Luis, this video definitely helped out a lot. Thank you for taking the time for making the video. You should consider making more videos for your channels. I'm sure people would love your explanations.

[@stanislautsishkou5632]

the best ever explanation I've ever heard!

[@vermaurvi16]

This is really great video, I have always been confused by these three and never make out the difference. You made it quite easy and sensible. Thank you..!!

[@Sumanaoka]

I felt bad on this guy for commenting and uncommenting the codes manually, But a great video though

[@MrRajeshragu]

Thanks much Luis. Very well explained. You help me covering the last mile, in knowing the differences & implementation process of all major custom services in angularjs.

[@rohitprajapati7494]

Best video of angular providers and related stuff.

[@mohitsharma28]

good teaching skills you have. excellent demonstration and clarity.

[@neerajsoni6350]

Great demonstration and beautifully explained.. worth every line and minute :) Great !

[@Nikhilkumar-qd3oq]

the difference has been explained very clearly

[@umapathivc2476]

Excellent ... If possible upload get post methods using services and factory methods

[@sravang6875]

This explanation is very good. I was expecting more difference between factory vs service.

[@manojgudi223]

Excellent demonstration. Thanks for taking time and sharing it.

[@hujingtao1]

my project's legacy code is old angular, i have to learn old angular again, thanks for your video, it's very helpful!!!

[@srikota09]

Loved the video it's an easy and clear breakdown I was breaking my head last night you cleared in 15mins thank you :)

[@muralichowdary6452]

Man you are some teacher.!!!! Excellent. Loved your explanation. Thanks a lot.

[@muralichowdary6452]

Very clean code, loved it .

[@oliversmit1255]

Brilliant video - thanks for the upload. Your code is also clean and a pleasure to look at!

[@LuisPerezPhd]

Oh +Oliver Smit you know just the things a programmer wants to hear :) Thanks.

[@AbdulRehman-zt4gt]

Best explaination on angularJS

[@bhushanyou1]

Hi ... This is awesome tutorial ... just wondering what is that IDE you are using .. can you please share the name of it

[@LuisPerezPhd]

In this video I was using Adobe Brackets, which is pretty nice. If you are looking at different IDE's I also suggest you take a look at Visual Studio Code. I think both of them are cross platform built on what I think is called the "Electron" shell.

[@charleswagon4232]

Great video. You have a real gift for presentation.

[@geekmoh1564]

very well explained sir, thank you so much!

[@luigizottoli]

what about passing variables and changing the value after an event??

[@LuisPerezPhd]

+luigi zottoli I will try to answer this best I can, it would help if you could provide a little more detail, what exactly are you trying to accomplish?. The value() provider let's you change the value over time. But you get provider value's once when it get's injected. For example when your controller first gets created the value will be injected it will not change afterwards. Now if you make the value and object then the properties of that object will change. For example module.value("myValues", { value: 10 }). Since what's actually being injected is a reference to the object, if you change any property in that object, that can be seen anywhere.

[@luigizottoli]

+Luis Perez first of all thanks a lot for your help , basically I am toggling a variables between true and false and the value of the variable show and hide a view trough ng-if . Now, I want to toggle this value when something in the new view is clicked . I am not really sure if this is the right way , but what I want to do is set the value in the service to shared between the controllers and change it trough the controllers. I hope I explained myself enough clearly !!

[@LuisPerezPhd]

luigi zottoli Hey I think I understand. Here are 5 ways you can share values. The best one is using the value provider, I show you how. What is the relationship between the controllers? Is one nested within the other? If so you can access the parent scope by using $scope.$parent.var = something. See an example here: jsfiddle.net/luisperezphd/0gc56ejq/ Something else you could do is to store your value in the $rootScope instead of the $scope. In this case the value is accessible from any controller whether it's nested or not. Here is an example of that: jsfiddle.net/luisperezphd/twubgqu5/ You can use value() and if fact of the 3 ways I mentioned so far that's the best way to go becuase you can be more clear in your code as to which controllers are accessing your data. The key though is to use an object not a primitive. The reason is that primitive values get "copied" while objects are passed by reference. See an example of that here: jsfiddle.net/luisperezphd/tyru8n7t/ Another way you can "share" between controllers is to use the angular "broadcasts". I can go into that if you want, it's not my favorite approach and requires a bit more work. Finally there's still yet another approach if you are using directives that are designed to be nestable, but again that sounds like it's out of scope. (see what I did there - out of *scope* - couldn't help myself.) Hope this helps.

[@luigizottoli]

thank you very much that was really helpfull , I really appreciate your help

[@LuisPerezPhd]

My pleasure, glad I could be of help. You can always reach me via my blog. I also have a 5 day mini course there, I get any replies to those emails.

[@alizaidi5943]

Great video!

[@tanveerengg]

one word to describe: ultimate !!

[@developer8780]

You know you can comment out selected lines by selecting several lines and pressing ctrl+/

[@LuisPerezPhd]

+Developer I did not know that, thanks for the tip.

[@ProjectsInMetal]

I was wondering if your text editor somehow didn't allow you to do a multi-line comment/uncomment. At one point you highlighted a whole block of code and I thought, this is it, this is when he's going to bulk comment his code! But nope. LOL. This video was perfect for me. It's exactly what I was looking for to help me understand factory vs service. But I kept cringing when you managed your comments line by line. You're obviously a very skilled developer so it makes me feel better that even skilled devs can miss a shortcut like this. :) Seriously, I'm not at all trying to make you feel bad. I really appreciate your excellent video. I've subscribed and liked and if I could buy you a beer I would. Cheers!!!

[@НиколайМихно-ы6ш]

AWESOME EXPLANATION!

[@eamoolman]

Great video, thanks a lot!

[@prempal3526]

Very nice video sir

[@ayyappaaryan3121]

really a grate work out Thanks..!!!

[@arun105k]

WOW!!! That was amazing...

[@mikitadusmikeev453]

Thanks to you for lesson. But I disagry with you about differences between services and factories. As service as factory return everything it want. I try return int, string, obj, even function - all is ok. Difference i'v got is next: Service return function, that will used in anoter place, so all metods and properties, that declarated by 'this' will created, all local variables (will delited as trash), and actions like 'console.log' - willn't. Factory return new exemplar, maded by it's own, so all things wasn't created in service will be created in factory. Sorry for my english) Well my way show me this differences am I wright or not, tell me please?

[@LuisPerezPhd]

Hey +Никита Дюсьмикеев, can you elaborate on what you mean. Maybe create an example on JS Fiddle. The way service works in Angular is that AngularJS will call "new" on whatever function you provide. If you were to return an int "new int" wouldn't work. So a service can only be an object. Now if you were returning an object with a method, that method can return any type you want. You can use the JSFiddle from my post as a basis to show what you mean - you can find that here: jsfiddle.net/luisperezphd/zeq2cxo9/. When I tried it, it couldn't get it to work properly returning an int. Thanks.

[@mikitadusmikeev453]

Hey +Luis Perez, sorry for long silence. Looks like I'v got what you explain) Using your example "myProvider" service will always object (jsfiddle.net/8mo293Lq/), and "myProvider" factory can be any type I need(jsfiddle.net/7s3wqgjb/). I thought about something wrong, sorry) Grand thanks, finaly I found my way to understand))

[@LuisPerezPhd]

Happy to hear it.
