Angularjs $http To Retrieve External Javascript File

I've got a 3rd party form solution that I can embed in my site by importing a javascript file. The instructions for embedding the script is actually along the lines of 'Copy and pa

Solution 1:

This is how scripts should be treated in templates.

app.directive('directive', function () {
    return {
        template: '<script src="404.js"><\/script>' +
          '<script>console.log("inline script");<\/script>',
        link: function (element, attrs) {
            var scripts = element.find('script');
            angular.forEach(scripts, function (script) {
                script = angular.element(script);
                var type = script.attr('type');
                var src = script.attr('src');

                if (type && !type.match(/^(?:text|application)\/javascript$/i))
                    return;

                var scriptFixed = angular.element('<script>');
                if (src) {
                    scriptFixed.attr('src', src);
                } else {
                    scriptFixed.text(script.text());
                }
                script.replaceWith(scriptFixed);                    
            });
        }
    };
});

You will obviously have XSS issues when requesting the scripts with $http.
