Most modal libraries for Angular are either frustratingly complicated or annoyingly dependent on a ton of external stuff. Popeye is simple, self-contained, and just “pops up” when you need it to.

Inject the Popeye service to open a modal and pass along your options:
var modal = Popeye.openModal(...);

The modal object returned is open and flexible. It has resolved, opened, and closed promises you can use to listen to the modal state, and exposes the scope and controller so you can interact with them:

mod.controller("myCtrl", function($scope, Popeye) {

$scope.openUserProfile = function(userId) {

// Open a modal to show the selected user profile
var modal = Popeye.openModal({
templateUrl: "my_modal_template.html",
controller: "myModalCtrl as ctrl",
resolve: {
user: function($http) {
return $http.get("/users/" + userId);
}
}
});

// Show a spinner while modal is resolving dependencies
$scope.showLoading = true;
modal.resolved.then(function() {
$scope.showLoading = false;
});

// Update user after modal is closed
modal.closed.then(function() {
$scope.updateUser();
});
};

});
