How to generate url encoded anchor links with AngularJS?

Question

You can use the native encodeURIComponent in javascript.
Also, you can make it into a string filter to utilize it.

Here is the example of making escape filter.

js:

var app = angular.module('app', []);
app.filter('escape', function() {
  return window.encodeURIComponent;
});

html:

<a ng-href="#/search?query={{address | escape}}">

(updated: adapting to Karlies’ answer which uses ng-href instead of plain href)
