Angularjs - make synchroneous call

I am downloading a text file from server.
I want to execute the next command once the file has been downloaded.

I am doing this : 

 window.open(location.pathname+'api/generateFile','_blank');
 $scope.searchBls();

Is there a way to make sure that $scope.searchBls() is called only once window.open has finished?

Thanks

Quite simple: window.open

var win = window.open(location.pathname+'api/generateFile','_blank');
win.onload = $scope.searchBls;

You might want to handle the case where the popup has been blocked. In that case win will be undefined

Bind to the window.onload event

var win = window.open(location.pathname+'api/generateFile','_blank');
win.onload = function() {
    $scope.searchBls();
};
