AngularJS (>=1.6.7) lazy load modules without ocLazyLoad

app.js

import { LazyLoader } from './LazyLoader';
import uiRouter from '@uirouter/angularjs';

angular.module('myApp', [uiRouter])
    .service('lazyLoader', LazyLoader)
    .config(($stateProvider) => {
        $stateProvider
            .state('some-state', {
                url: '/some-state',
                lazyLoad: ($transition$) => {
                    return $transition$
                        .injector()
                        .get('lazyLoader').loadModules('../path-to/lazyLoadedModule.js');
                }
            });
    });

lazyLoadedModule.js

export angular.module('lazyLoadedModule', [])
  .component('someComponent', ...)
  .name;

LazyLoader.js

export class LazyLoader {
    constructor($injector, $rootScope) {
        this.$injector = $injector;
        this.$rootScope = $rootScope;
    }

    async loadModules(bundleUrl) {
        const moduleName = await import(bundleUrl);
        const alreadyLoadedModules = Object.keys($injector.modules);

        $injector.loadNewModules([moduleName]);

        const newModules = Object.keys($injector.modules)
            .filter(moduleName => alreadyLoadedModules.indexOf(moduleName) === -1);

        // Notify of component loaded similar to ocLazyLoad.componentLoaded (https://oclazyload.readme.io/docs/oclazyloadprovider)
        newModules.forEach((moduleName) => {
            // This is a private usage, it may break in the future.
            $injector.modules[moduleName]['_invokeQueue'].forEach(([_, type, [typeName]]) => {
                $rootScope.$broadcast('componentLoaded', [moduleName, type, typeName]);
            });
        });
    }
}

Oh awesome! I've been on AngularJS 1.2.22 for so long, I had no idea that there was any movement on lazy-loading in later version. This is exciting (for those of us who can't migrate to Angular 11 anytime soon).

Just wanted to say, thanks again! I reference your gist in my post: https://www.bennadel.com/blog/3929-proof-of-concept-injecting-features-into-an-invision-share-link-experience-using-angularjs-1-6-7.htm

I'm happy that you found it useful for you :]

Thanx for the credit.
