Cannot use a variable to set dependencies of a module

[pire]

It seems like dependencies cannot be set in a variable?

// OK
angular.module(moduleName, []);

// fails
var dependencies = [];
angular.module(moduleName, dependencies);

I get the following trace

stream.js:94
      throw er; // Unhandled stream error in pipe.
            ^
Error: Error in parsing: "/config.js", Cannot call method 'map' of undefined

Any updates on this? I'm hitting the exact same issue.

Haven't heard a peep - I've defaulted to not using a variable for now but not ideal...

Sorry. I haven't had the time to investigate this yet...
It's the ng-dependencies module that must be improved for this to work.

I gladly accept PR's for this if someone would like to help out!

Awesome, thanks for pointing in the right direction @joakimbeng :) I'll see if I can find some time to help out with that.

I had a similar issue while customizing uiBreadcrumbs. It seems that anytime I declared a module name using a variable to hold it angular-file-sort was considering that files two times, so gulp-inject was adding it two times to index.html.
This is the example that did not work:

(function() {

    /**
     * Config
     */
    var moduleName = 'angularUtils.directives.uiBreadcrumbs';
    var templateUrl = 'directives/uiBreadcrumbs/uiBreadcrumbs.tpl.html';

    /**
     * Module
     */
    var module;
    try {
        module = angular.module(moduleName);
    } catch(err) {
        // named module does not exist, so create one
        module = angular.module(moduleName, ['ui.router']);
    }
    module.directive('uiBreadcrumbs', ['$interpolate', '$state', function($interpolate, $state) {
       // ...    
    }]);
})

Things work if we remove the variable module name logic using instead the normal module declaration

(function() {
  angular.module('angularUtils.directives.uiBreadcrumbs', ['ui.router'])
    .directive('uiBreadcrumbs', ['$interpolate', '$state', function($interpolate, $state) {
       // ...    
    }]);
})
