How to access CONSTANT value from different js file in AngularJS

Question

constants.js file below

'use strict'

angular.module('app').constant('CONSTANT' { 
    "myValues": {
        "fruit": "apple",
        "car": "ford suv"
     }

I would like to simply access "myValues" from

ang-extention.js file and simply use it like:

function getMyStuff() {
    console.log(CONSTANT.myValues.fruit);
}

I tried:

angular.module(['CONSTANT', function(CONSTANT) {
    console.log(CONSTANT.myValues.fruit');
}]);

but no luck. How is it done in this case?

I searched various terms for example, "how to use constants in angularJS" I read bunch of answers but i didn't understand them so far and ended up asking SO myself.
Thank you so much in advance..

angular.module requires the name of the module to create/use... There is no function to provide. In angular.module('myModule').run(function(CONSTANT) { }); it will work. — anotherdev

Please ignore } missing in constants.js in the question. I forgot.. — Newbie_Android

To use the constant, simply inject it into the .run function:

angular.module("app").run(function(CONSTANT) {
    console.log(CONSTANT.myValues.fruit);
});
