How to send angularjs $http GET request with body

Question

I know a GET request shouldn't have a body, but unfortunately when writing the server I didn't know that, and I am not allowed to change it. The server(Node.js) expects the get request to contain a body with a parameter. When searching for the issue I have seen a few answers mention that it is possible but none said how. I have tried to send it this way with no success:

$http.get('http://localhost:3000/foo/bar',{
    data: {'foo':bar},
    headers: {'Content-Type': 'application/json;charset=utf-8'}
})

Thanks!

Answer 1

From the Docs:

The XMLHttpRequest method send() , sends the request to the server.

If the request method is GET or HEAD, the body parameter is ignored and the request body is set to null .

Since the $http.get method wraps the XHR.send() method, it can't send a body with its request.

你可以通过身体参数来获得这样的要求

$http.get('http://localhost:3000/foo/bar',{params: {'foo':bar}} })
