How to return a value in html from angularjs controller

Question

I m downloading a file using AngularJS and java from server. Because by Ajax GET request doesn't support downloading a file using jax-rs so I am using an alternative approach for it.

Select the different field from UI, on click submit I want to create a url at app.js and want to assign it's return value to href so that href tag force window to open with a popup to download

<input type="button" onclick="location.href=GetUrl();" value="Submit"/>

function in App.js is

  $scope.GetUrl = function() {
      // do some computation;
      return "url"
  }

Can some one help me?

Change onclick to ng-click to access scope functions

<input type="button" ng-click="GetUrl();" value="Submit"/>


  $scope.GetUrl = function() {
      // do some computation;
      // here assign the url to location.href
      location.href = url;
  }

in this case, the HTML would be <input type="button" ng-click="GetUrl()" />

Change onclick to ng-click. onclick does not know $scope bindings. So, it won't call the function GetUrl.

<input type="button" ng-click="location.href=GetUrl();" value="Submit"/>
