Angular UI router - Pass dynamic data with a route?

Question

I have a couple of routes/states defined in my application. Consider the standard use case of list view and single view. For my single view, I pass the id as a URL parameter. I want to pass some more data, but not as URL parameters. Can this be done? I use $state.go for transitioning to states.

Edit:

$stateProvider
    .state('list', {
        url: '/list',
        ...
    })
    .state('single', {
        url: '/single/:id',
        ...
    });

I get the id in the $stateParams in the respective controller, from the URL. But I want to send more dynamic data to this route, without sending it through the URL. How would I do it?

You can pass the additional params like this.

  state('state_name', {
        url: 'state_url',
        template: '<template></template>',
        params : params
    })

You can get the values by using the $state.current

$state.current.param

How would I do it when calling state.go? – Rutwick Gangurde Jan 05 '15 at 09:50
You can specify the parameters in $state.go as the second argument (toParams). Have a look at: https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-router/wiki/Quick-Reference#stategoto--toparams--options – Koen Weyn Jan 05 '15 at 10:00

Yes! The link is pretty helpful! But what about `ui-sref`, how do I specify the params in `ui-sref`? – Rutwick Gangurde Jan 05 '15 at 10:26

It still uses URL arguments, which I don't want! I'm already sending the URL param for the single route. I have updated my description. – Rutwick Gangurde Jan 05 '15 at 12:11
