Proper way to include a module in AngularJS

Question

I'm learning Angular and I'm trying to include Restangular this way:

var app = angular.module('myapp',['restangular']);
app.controller('UsersController', ['$scope', function ($scope, Restangular) {
   ...

Then I'm using Restangular like this:

var data = Restangular.all('someurl');

Here I get an error: Restangular is undefined. According to the documentation, this should have been simple:

// Add Restangular as a dependency to your app
angular.module('your-app', ['restangular']);

// Inject Restangular into your controller
angular.module('your-app').controller('MainCtrl', function($scope, Restangular) {
  // ...
});

However I am unable to get it to work. What gives?

You're using the bracket notation for your controller, but you forgot to add Restangular to the list of dependencies:

['$scope', 'Restangular', function ($scope, Restangular) {...}]

This article has more information on Angular and minification. Search for "A note on minification”.

I tried this also, but this seemed to break something else (a custom filter). I'll try this again and look into it a bit more.

Ok, this is the correct way to do this, my code is wasn't working for other reasons, so I was asking the wrong questions here really.

That looks correct, just make sure you've added the import of Restangular to your html file

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdn.jsdelivr.net/restangular/1.1.3/restangular.js"></script>

They also mention it requires lodash or underscore.js so maybe make sure you're loading those as well
