jQuery Ajax request turn into AngularJS $http request

Question

I have such jQuery Ajax request. I need to turn it into an AngularJS $http request. How can I do that?

    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        dataType: "jsonp",
        crossDomain: false,
        data:{
            user: username,
            pass: password
        },
        beforeSend: function (request){
            request.setRequestHeader("Accept-Language", languageCode);
        },
        url: someUrl
    })
    .done(function (data, textStatus, jqXHR){
        console.log(data);
    })
    .fail(function (jqXHR, textStatus){
       console.log("failed");
    });

My Angular Implementations

Response {"data" : "", "status" : "200", "config" : .... } Data is empty

login : function (username, password) {
  return $http({
    method: 'POST',
    url: someUrl,
    data: {
      user: username,
      pass: password
    },
    headers: {
      'Accept-Language': languageCode
    }
  })
} 

I succeeded to get data wrapped in JSON_CALLBACK with next request. But I don't know how to call that callback. It is not done automatically. Response looks like {data:"JSON_CALLBACK({mydata})"...}

login : function (username, password) {
  var url = someUrl
    + '?callback=JSON_CALLBACK&user=' + username
    + '&pass=' + password;

  return $http.post(url);
},

Answer 1

Please refer to $http documentation. but here is somewhat counterpart for that jquery request

$http({
  method: 'POST',
  url: '/someUrl',
  data: {  
        user: username,
        pass: password 
  },
  headers: {
    'Accept-Language':languageCode
  }
}).then(function successCallback(response) {
    //do something
  }, function errorCallback(response) {
    //do something
  });

There is no such thing as a JSONP POST request. When jQuery sees dataType: jsonp , it ignores the method propery and uses a script GET request. The data is added as parameters of the URL.

In AngularJS, JSONP requests are specified with method: 'JSONP . The callback parameter needs to be JSON_CALLBACK and must be capitalized.

login : function (username, password) {
  return $http({
    //method: 'POST',
    method: 'JSONP',
    url: someUrl,
    //data: {
    params: {
      user: username,
      pass: password,
      callback: "JSON_CALLBACK"
    },
    headers: {
      'Accept-Language': languageCode
    }
  })
} 

Be aware that since the data is sent as URL parameters, sensitive information such as passwords are vulnerable to snooping attacks.

To demonstrate on JSFiddle:

var url="//jsfiddle.net/echo/jsonp/";
var params = { user: "myUser",
               pass: "123456",
               callback: "JSON_CALLBACK"
            };
$http.jsonp(url, { params: params} )
    .then(function onSuccess(response) {
         $scope.response = response;
         console.log(response);
    })

AngularJS error .success is not a function

Might have something to do with it??

What API are you working with?
