通过Angular中的服务来全局对象

Question

After entering my application my GlobalApplicationController initializes some services used through the whole application (like subscribing to sockets, etc.). It would be pretty handy to have a CurrentUser object - but I'm not sure about the object I get

@app.factory 'CurrentUser', ($http) ->
  user = $http({
    method: 'GET',
    url: 'users/me'
  }).then (data) ->
    return data

The returned object contains a $$state object. To get to the actual data I need to call CurrentUser.$$state.value.data .

I want my service to be called like CurrentUser.email (or whatever attribute), but I have no idea what type this returned object is or why I'm getting it.

Edit : I've found out that the returned object I get is the $http object (due to coffeescript). Is there a way to return the data ( not a promise)?

Answer 1

From $http General Usage then() docs:

The response object has these properties:

 data – {string|Object} – The response body transformed with the transform functions. status – {number} – HTTP status code of the response. headers – {function([headerName])} – Header getter function. config – {Object} – The configuration object that was used to generate the request. statusText – {string} – HTTP status text of the response. 

So you would want to change

return data

To

return data.data
