javascript - Force AngularJS to reload a route although option reloadOnSearch is set to false

Question

In the route configuration of my AngularJS application most of the routes are defined with the option reloadOnSearch set to false as most of the time a page should not reload when search parameter changed.

But in rare circumstances I need a different behaviour where I need to reload the URL although only the search parameters changed.

Is there a way to force AngularJS to reload the URL although reloadOnSearch is set to false?

I have not tried it, but something that you can try is.

In the $routeUpdate event handler call the $route.reload() method if you know the condition that should cause refresh of route.
