angularjs - Inject $uibModalInstance to a controllar not initiated by a $uibModal -

i have these 2 views:

1) foo.html

  <p>hello {{name}}</p> 

2) foo-as-modal.html

<div class="modal-header">     <h3 class="modal-title">i'm modal</h3> </div> <div class="modal-body">     <ng-include src="'foo.html'"></ng-include> </div> <div class="modal-footer">     <button class="btn btn-default" ng-click="cancel()">close</button> </div> 

the controller foo.html foocontroller:

angular.module('myapp').controller('foocontroller', ['$scope','$uibmodalinstance', function($scope,$uibmodalinstance) {       $scope.name = "john"       $scope.cancel = function () {         $uibmodalinstance.dismiss('cancel');      }; }]); 

i need inject $uibmodalinstance foocontroller .dismiss work

that works great when invoke foo-as-modal.html modal, ie:

    var modalinstance = $uibmodal.open({         templateurl: 'foo-as-modal.html',         controller: 'foocontroller',         scope: $scope.$new(),         size: 'lg'     }); 

but throws error when invoke foo.html normal view (via $routeprovider , ng-view directive), ie:

    .when('/foo', {         templateurl: 'foo.html',         controller: 'foocontroller'     }) 

error is:

 error: [$injector:unpr] unknown provider: $uibmodalinstanceprovider <- $uibmodalinstance <- foocontroller 

and view doesn't display "john" (because of error)

how can solve this? need reuse foo.html , foocontroller modal , non-modal, because have lots of stuff (i've simplified here)

edit: here plunkr:

well solved way:

1. removed injection $uibmodalinstance foocontroller

2. when invoking modal, i pass modalinstance variable modal's scope:

   var modalscope = $scope.$new();  var modalinstance = $uibmodal.open({     templateurl: 'foo-as-modal.html',     controller: 'foocontroller',     scope: modalscope });  modalscope.modalinstance = modalinstance; 

3. dismiss modal scope variable:

   $scope.modalinstance.dismiss('cancel');  // instead of $uibmodalinstance.dismiss(..)
