Hello. We are developing a Kibana Plugin for Kibana 6.2.1. We would like to use [https://github.com/danialfarid/ng-file-upload](https://github.com/danialfarid/ng-file-upload) in our plugin.

How can we inject the services and directives of ng-file-upload in our plugin?.

Thanks.

Hi. I think I just answered myself. Sorry for this noob question.

In case somebody else ever get to this. The only steps needed are:

1. **_yarn add ng-file-upload_**  
2.Add the import in app.js as " **_import ngFileUpload from 'ng-file-upload_**'"  
3.Add the Module dependency to your angular app as _**"uiModules.get('yourapp', ['ngFileUpload']).controller('uploaderController', function (Upload)"**_
