[AngularJS] Accessing Services from Console

Using the Chrome console, you can access your AngularJS injectable services. This is down and dirty debugging, and can be a lifesaver in troubling times.

You can get services/factories in console by using:

var $injector = angular.element($0).injector();

This $injector can help to skip the form validations on client side, but you do need to check the value on server side.

If you have factory like:

.factory('Projects', function($firebase, fbURL) {
  return $firebase(new Firebase(fbURL)).$asArray();
})

You can access it by using:

var Projects = $injector.get("Projects");

Because it uses firebase, therefore, now you can use any firsebase methods, for example:

Projects.$add({name:"", site:"", description: "<<<<<<<<>>>>>>"})

Here site need to be a URL, but if access it from console, we still can add value into the it:
