Angular Bootstrap Modal Add Directive

I have an Angular application which contains a simple timer that resets on a mousemove event. So far I have been able to handle this by adding the ng-mousemove event to my outer most scope. However, when a Angular Bootstrap Modal appears, it is positioned in the DOM after that scope, so the event gets ignored until the modal is closed.

My current application is structured as follows:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="app">
    <head>
        ...
    </head>
    <body>
        <div data-ng-controller="shell as vm">
            <div ng-mousemove="vm.handleMouseMove()">
                ...
            </div>
            // MODAL APPEARS DOWN HERE
            <div tabindex="-1" role="dialog" class="modal fade ng-isolate-scope warning in" ...>
            </div>
    </body>
</html>

Is there a way to:

a.) Add the ng-mousemove directive to the modal wrapper

or

b.) Move the modal into my scope, so that shell is a parent to the modal controller.

Not sure why you need that timer reset behaviour but you could do it like this.

Add your shell controller and ng-mousemove to the body-tag and style your body/html to fill the whole page with css width: 100%; height:100%.

Please have a look at the demo below and this jsfiddle.

 var app = angular.module('myApp', ['ui.bootstrap']);

app.controller('shell', function($scope, $interval, $modal) {
    $scope.test = 'hello world';
    this.counter = 0;
    var vm = this;
    
    this.moveHandler = function() {
        console.log('mouse moved, reset counter!');
        vm.counter = 0;
    };
    
    var timer = function(iterCount) {
        console.log('timer tick', vm.counter);
        vm.counter++;
    };
    
    var intervalPromise = $interval(timer, 100);
    
    $scope.$on("$destroy", function handler() {
        // destruction code here
        $interval.cancel(intervalPromise); // stop interval on destroy of ctrl.
    });
    
     $scope.items = ['item1', 'item2', 'item3'];

  $scope.open = function (size) {

    var modalInstance = $modal.open({
      templateUrl: 'myModalContent.html',
      controller: 'ModalInstanceCtrl',
      size: size,
      resolve: {
        items: function () {
          return $scope.items;
        }
      }
    });
  };
});

// modal code from angular-ui-bootstrap demo
app.controller('ModalDemoCtrl', function ($scope, $modal, $log) {

  $scope.items = ['item1', 'item2', 'item3'];

  $scope.open = function (size) {

    var modalInstance = $modal.open({
      templateUrl: 'myModalContent.html',
      controller: 'ModalInstanceCtrl',
      size: size,
      resolve: {
        items: function () {
          return $scope.items;
        }
      }
    });

    modalInstance.result.then(function (selectedItem) {
      $scope.selected = selectedItem;
    }, function () {
      $log.info('Modal dismissed at: ' + new Date());
    });
  };
});

// Please note that $modalInstance represents a modal window (instance) dependency.
// It is not the same as the $modal service used above.

app.controller('ModalInstanceCtrl', function ($scope, $modalInstance, items) {

  $scope.items = items;
  $scope.selected = {
    item: $scope.items[0]
  };

  $scope.ok = function () {
    $modalInstance.close($scope.selected.item);
  };

  $scope.cancel = function () {
    $modalInstance.dismiss('cancel');
  };
});
