Stop time interval during navigation in angularjs
From the angularjs example in the $interval API page.
var interval = $interval(function() {
console.log('say hello');
}, 1000);
$interval.cancel(interval);
With $interval.cancel(var) you can stop the interval and if you want to stop it when navigating to another page you should try something like this.
var interval = null;
module.controller('SomeController', '$interval', function($interval) {
interval = $interval(function() {
...
}, 2000);
}).run(['$rootScope', '$interval', function($rootScope, $interval) {
$rootScope.$on('$routeChangeStart', function() {
$interval.cancel(interval);
});
}]);
You can listen to the $routeChangeStart
event and do the clearing of the interval depending on the route parameters,
$scope.$on('$routeChangeStart', function (scope, next, current) {
if(<next is not default.aspx>){
// clear interval here
}
});
