proper way of calling the functions during init in JavaScript

Question

I am getting error method1 () is undefined. What is the proper way to invoke a method during init?

 gdmsDashboard.controller('DashboardController', '$scope') {

        $scope.Msg = "";

        (function init() {
            $scope.method1 ();
            method1 ();
            this.method1 ();

        })();

        $scope.method1 = function () { 
          //
        }
}

$scope.logOut function needs to be created first before you can call it using the controller setup you have. — Rob

I guess the question is why are you initing a logout function? Are you logging the user out when the controller is called? — Rob

You need to define the $scope.logout before the iife statement. — Ioan

You need to understand variable hoisting concept

Just to make your code work do this

$scope.method1 = function () { 
          //
        }
(function init() {
            $scope.method1();
})();
