Angular UI Router: Different states with same URL?
The landing page of my app has two states: home-public
, home-logged-in
. Now I want to show both states on the same URL, but let the controller and template depend on the user session (is the user logged in or not?).
Is there a way to achieve this?

You could have a base state that controls which state to load, and you could simply have the child stated of that base state not have urls:
.state('home', { url: "/home", templateUrl: "....", controller: function($scope,$state,authSvc) { if(authSvc.userIsLoggedIn()){ $state.go('home.loggedin') }else{ $state.go('home.public') } } }) .state('home.public', { url: "", templateUrl: "....", controller: function($scope) { ........... } }) .state('home.loggedin', { url: "", templateUrl: "....", controller: function($scope) { ........... } })
Now in the controller of your base state (home
) you can check if the user is logged in or not, and use $state.go()
to load an appropriate state.
