angularjs and Spring MVC framework

Question

I having trouble dealing with angularjs .

My code is like this:

$routeProvider

.when('/chart/pie',{
    templateUrl : 'chart/pie'
})

ChartController

public ModelAndView getChart(){
   ModelAndview mv = new ModelAndView();

   mv.setView("chart");

   mv.addObject("user", User);

   return mv;
}

chart.html

result : {{user}}

I would guessed I received [ result : {'name': 'haha', 'age' : '17'}] but result was: [result : {{user}} ]

How can I get the preferred result?

Answer 1

You need to return the User (not the model and view object), and need to add the ReponseBody annotation

@ResponseBody
public User getChart(){
    User user = ....
    return user;
}

Hint: from the Spring point of view, this problem has nothing to to with AngularJs, but sending a JSON response. So if you have more problems, that search for Spring and Json (a simple example can be found here ).
