AngularJS如何返回字符串而不是Json对象

Question

I use angularjs to get a string from a web service. This string is actually a base64 pdf file.

public string Get(int id)
{
    var bytes = File.ReadAllBytes(@"C:\test.pdf");
    var content = Convert.ToBase64String(bytes);
    return content;
}

Angularjs return me a array like this one:

{"0":"\\"","1":"J","2":"V","3":"B","4":"E" ...}

But I need a complete string like this : "JVBE..."

I try to find a way to get the complete string instead of array format and I don't find anything.

Do you know how handle this?

Thank you!

Answer 1

It seems that you are returning data from .Net MVC's Web API. You can do

public object Get(int id)
{
    var bytes = File.ReadAllBytes(@"C:\test.pdf");
    var content = Convert.ToBase64String(bytes);
    return new {value = content};
}

Since a string can't be converted to JSON.
