Angular Bootstrap Modal $uibModalInstance Unknown Provider in Angular 1.5 Component

When I try to close Angular Bootstrap Modal inside Angular 1.5 component, it throws Error: $injector:unpr Unknown Provider.

It works fine, if I use Controller instead of Component. Am I missing something?

Script

angular.module('app', ['ngAnimate', 'ui.bootstrap']);

angular.module('app')
  .component('myContent', {
      template: 'I am content! <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" ng-click="$ctrl.open()">Open Modal</button>',
      controller: function ($uibModal) {
          this.open = function () {
              $uibModal.open({
                  template: '<my-modal></my-modal>'
              });
          };
      }
  });

angular.module('app')
  .component('myModal', {
      template: '<div class="modal-body">I am a modal! <button class="btn btn-warning" type="button" ng-click="$ctrl.close()">Close Modal</button></div>',
      controller: function ($uibModalInstance) {
          this.close = function () {
              $uibModalInstance.dismiss('cancel');
          };
      }
  });

I had the same problem with using $uibModal and 1.5 components. To solve problem We need to use component property of object attribute used in open method.

var modalInstance = $uibModal.open({
      component: 'someComponentWithContent', //here name of component
      resolve: {
        user: function () {
          return user; //example resolve
        }
      }
    });

Documentation of $uibModal says that we have below properties set in component:

close - A method that can be used to close a modal, passing a result. The result must be passed in this format: {$value: myResult}

dismiss - A method that can be used to dismiss a modal, passing a result. The result must be passed in this format: {$value: myRejectedResult}

modalInstance - The modal instance. This is the same $uibModalInstance injectable found when using controller.

resolve - An object of the modal resolve values. See UI Router resolves for details.

So instead of using dependency injections We need to use bindings in component.

var someComponentWithContent={

bindings:{
  modalInstance:"<",
  resolve:"<"
},
controller:someComponentController,
template:"Some template"

};

And last thing how to use it in controller of component:

function someComponentController(){

  //here example usage of dismiss
  this.modalInstance.dismiss('cancel'); //this.modalInstance is $uibModalInstance

  console.log(this.resolve); //here object with resolved params
}

You need to add ui.bootstrap as a dependency here:

angular.module('app').component('myModal'...

Becomes

angular.module('app', ['ui.bootstrap']).component('myModal'...

For clarity, and to avoid re-typing, just do this:

var app = angular.module('app', [ /* dependencies here */ ]);
app.controller();
app.config();
//etc.. etc...

Maciej Sikora is correct. But also you need to update ui bootstrap to version > 2.1.0, otherwise it wont work.
