from jquery $.ajax to angular $http

The AngularJS way of calling $http would look like:

$http({
    url: "http://example.appspot.com/rest/app",
    method: "POST",
    data: {"foo":"bar"}
}).then(function successCallback(response) {
        // this callback will be called asynchronously
        // when the response is available
        $scope.data = response.data;
    }, function errorCallback(response) {
        // called asynchronously if an error occurs
        // or server returns response with an error status.
        $scope.error = response.statusText;
});

or could be written even simpler using shortcut methods:

$http.post("http://example.appspot.com/rest/app", {"foo":"bar"})
.then(successCallback, errorCallback);

There are number of things to notice:

• AngularJS version is more concise (especially using .post() method)
• AngularJS will take care of converting JS objects into JSON string and setting headers (those are customizable)
• Callback functions are named success and error respectively (also please note parameters of each callback) - Deprecated in angular v1.5
• use then function instead.
• More info of then usage can be found here

The above is just a quick example and some pointers, be sure to check AngularJS documentation for more: http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng.$http

We can implement ajax request by using http service in AngularJs, which helps to read/load data from remote server.

$http service methods are listed below,

 $http.get()
 $http.post()
 $http.delete()
 $http.head()
 $http.jsonp()
 $http.patch()
 $http.put()

One of the Example:

    $http.get("sample.php")
        .success(function(response) {
            $scope.getting = response.data; // response.data is an array
    }).error(){

        // Error callback will trigger
    });
