AngularJS : How to use one resolve for all the routes of my application

For completeness, here is the whole solution, using angular instead of underscore, with a chainable ‘when’. Nothing new in this code, just combined a bunch of the answers above.

var originalWhen = $routeProvider.when;

    $routeProvider.when = function(path, route) {
        route.resolve || (route.resolve = {});
        angular.extend(route.resolve, {
            CurrentUser : function(User) {
                return User.current();
            }
        });

        return originalWhen.call($routeProvider, path, route);
    };
