AngularJS advice on converting Factory to Provider?

Question

I need to inject content from a Factory into a Config but I know this isn't possible and is only possible if I use a provider instead, so please can anyone advise how to convert my factory into a Provider?

var templateApp = angular.module('templateApp', ['ngMaterial', 'ngRoute']);

templateApp.factory('pageFactory', function () {

    var pages = [
                {icon: 'assessment', name: 'Overview', route: '/partial1', template: 'View1.html'},
                {icon: 'assignment', name: 'Dashboard', route: '/partial2', template: 'View2.html'}
        ];

    var factory = {};
    factory.getPages = function(){
        return pages;
    }

    return factory;
});

Many thanks
