Integrating Angular with legacy code

A way to interact with Angular controller from "outside the Angular world". The quoted code can be called from JavaScript in a page. It, basically, gets the related scope from an HTML element and then the interaction is easy.

Integrating Angular with legacy code - JSFiddle:

angular.element($("#microController-div")).scope().incrementDataInService();

Even easier variant would be to avoid using jQuery:

var scope = angular.element("#myelement").scope();
