this is a bit of my code that stores and retrieves to local storage. i use broadcast events to save and restore the values in the model.
app.factory('userService', ['$rootScope', function ($rootScope) {
var service = {
model: {
name: '',
email: ''
},
SaveState: function () {
sessionStorage.userService = angular.toJson(service.model);
},
RestoreState: function () {
service.model = angular.fromJson(sessionStorage.userService);
}
}
$rootScope.$on("savestate", service.SaveState);
$rootScope.$on("restorestate", service.RestoreState);
return service;
}]);
