I found that if you have nested views - $viewContentLoaded gets triggered for every of the nested views. I've created this workaround to find the final $viewContentLoaded. Seems to work alright for setting $window.prerenderReady as required by Prerender (goes into .run() in the main app.js):
// Trigger $window.prerenderReady once page is stable
// Note that since we have nested views - $viewContentLoaded is fired multiple
// times and we need to go around this problem
var viewContentLoads = 0;
var checkReady = function(previousContentLoads) {
var currentContentLoads = Number(viewContentLoads) + 0; // Create a local copy of the number of loads
if (previousContentLoads === currentContentLoads) { // Check if we are in a steady state
$window.prerenderReady = true; // Raise the flag saying we are ready
} else {
if ($window.prerenderReady || currentContentLoads > 20) return; // Runaway check
$timeout(function() {checkReady(currentContentLoads);}, 100); // Wait 100ms and recheck
}
};
$rootScope.$on('$stateChangeSuccess', function() {
checkReady(-1); // Changed the state - ready to listen for end of render
});
$rootScope.$on('$viewContentLoaded', function() {
viewContentLoads ++;
});
