Bundling AngularJS

There’s lots of posts out there on how to correctly bundle angularjs with any of the popular bundling tools.  I happen to use MVC’s built in bundling.  It works for me now, though I am looking at using less and gruntjs for some additional functionality.  Here’s a recent problem that I solved.  

I would see an error that looked something like this: 

Module Error
error in component $injector
Failed to instantiate module myApp due to:
Error: [$injector:unpr] http://errors.angularjs.org/undefined/$injector/unpr?p0=n

I was pretty confused as to what was going on, I’d properly configured all of my controllers so they used an array like [‘$http’, ‘$q’, …] for injection.  What was going on.  

It turned it out it was one simple error.  In my app.js which handles the routing, I had code looking like this:

myApp .config(function ($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider.

That turned out to be the issue.  Once i refactored it to look like this:

myApp.config([“$routeProvider”, function ($routeProvider) {
$routeProvider.

It then bundled nicely and no javascript errors.  I should have noticed immediately when it said a module error, but I didn’t.  Hopefully this post gets into google and helps someone else.
