javascript - The view is not updated when the model updates in AngularJS

Question

I have read threads on this issue such as: The view is not updated in AngularJS but I still can't understand how to apply it on my simple example.

I have this function:

function MyPageView($scope) {
  var myModel = new MyModel();
  $scope.myModel = myModel;
}

when myModel is updated elsewhere in the code (when user clicks, interacts, send XHR requests) it doesn't update my view. I understand I need to do something with $apply but I didn't understand where and how.

Can someone explain to me how do I solve this issue for this simple use-case?

My model looks something like this (if that is necessary for the question) - it has no AngularJS code inside of it:

var MyModel = function() {
  var _this = this;
  ...
  _this.load = function(){...};
  _this.updateModel = function(){...};
  ...
  return _this;
}

try $scope.$apply() inside your controller after you update your model
