Instances of this type are objects that +serve as the context within which all model and controller methods live and get evaluated. + + +Angular links scope objects to specific points in a compiled (processed) template. This linkage +provides the contexts in which angular creates data-bindings between the model and the view. You +can think of angular scope objects as the medium through which the model, view, and controller +communicate. + + +In addition to providing the context in which data is evaluated, angular scope objects watch for +model changes. The scope objects also notify all components interested in any model changes (for +example, functions registered through {@link api/angular.scope.$watch $watch}, bindings created by +{@link api/angular.directive.ng:bind ng:bind}, or HTML input elements). + + +Angular scope objects are responsible for: + + +* Gluing the model, controller and view template together. +* Providing the mechanism to watch for model changes ({@link api/angular.scope.$watch}). +* Notifying interested components when the model changes ({@link api/angular.scope.$eval}). +* Providing the context in which all controller functions and angular expressions are evaluated. + + + + +## Related Topics + + +* {@link dev_guide.scopes.understanding_scopes Understanding Scopes} +* {@link dev_guide.scopes.working_scopes Working With Scopes} +* {@link dev_guide.scopes.controlling_scopes Applying Controllers to Scopes} +* {@link dev_guide.scopes.updating_scopes Updating Scopes} + + +## Related API + + +* {@link api/angular.scope Angular Scope API} + + + |
