Currently I am working on my app and I decided to use AngularJS as a framework to structure my front-end code. However, I don't have any experience with AngularJS and thus, am currently struggling with the concepts and logics of it.
Below you can see a rough draft of my app's scaffold:
So what I am trying to do is to create a single page application for my whole app.
Within the <menu bar> one can select different pages to display within the workspace. I learned that I can realise this behaviour by using the <ng-view> directive.
However, what I want to do is, depending on the buttons clicked within the <workspace> (-> the currently loaded view) I'd like to show different <sidebars>.
For example: If one clicks on an edit object button within the workspace, the form to edit the object will be loaded into the sidebar.
At first I though I could solve this by using multiple ng-view directives within the app, but I learned that this is not possible.
So, do you have any ideas on how to realise the above described behaviour?
I would like to asynchronously load <sidebar> templates whenever they are needed within the app. These sidebar templates should contain some logic, e.g. buttons to submit data etc.
I really don't know how to realise this behaviour, as I'm as well struggling with how to use scopes and controllers in this context.
Any ideas, articles, examples are highly suggested! Thanks.
Edit: I created a small and only minimalised draft of how I imagine AngularJS would handle the process:
