I used flickr photo search method to retrieve public photos.
when I run it with jquery, it works fine, I get the json object in correct form.
{
"photos": {
"photo": [
{
.........
}
]
},
"stat": "ok"
}
But when I use it with AngularJs, I got the same object with a prefix jsonFlickrApi
jsonFlickrApi({
"photos": {
"photo": [
{
......
}
]
},
"stat": "ok"
})
what I used in AngularJs is:
myApp.service('dataService', function($http) {
delete $http.defaults.headers.common['X-Requested-With'];
this.flickrPhotoSearch = function() {
return $http({
method: 'GET',
url: 'https://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.photos.search&api_key=3f807259749363aaa29c2fa93945&tags=india&format=json&callback=?',
dataType: 'json'
});
}
});
Please tell me how can I convert the second JSON to the first one.
Is there anything I can do in $http
call or have to alter JSON object.
There was problem in the url.
This Url works for me.
https://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.people.getPublicPhotos&api_key=3f807259749363aaa29c712fa93945&user_id=61495424@N00&format=json&nojsoncallback=?
You have to add nojsoncallback=1 to the url, like this
https://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.photos.getRecent&api_key=XXX&format=json&nojsoncallback=1
And that remove the jsonFlickrApi function on response.
The above answer which says to add nojsoncallback=1
is correct, but I'd like to provide more context and reasoning behind it.
If you take a look at the documentation (which is poorly formatted in my opinion): https://www.flickr.com/services/api/response.json.html and scroll all the way to the bottom you will find, tucked away:
Callback Function
If you just want the raw JSON, with no function wrapper, add the parameter nojsoncallback with a value of 1 to your request.
To define your own callback function name, add the parameter jsoncallback with your desired name as the value.
nojsoncallback=1 -> {...}
jsoncallback=wooYay -> wooYay({...});
The key part being: If you just want the raw JSON, with no function wrapper, add the parameter nojsoncallback with a value of 1 to your request
Therefore, add this to your request and it will remove jsonFlickrAPI
wrapper that you are seeing in your response: nojsoncallback=1
You are getting a JSONP
response (notice the P) which is basically a function call with an argument that is the response you are expecting.
Easy solution for you: Create a function named jsonFlickrApi
with a parameter response
and you can do your handing in there.
At this point, I am not sure if you can define your function inside your service but try it. If not, you can define it outside.
Alternatively, try using $http.get function instead. Were you specifying the return accepted by the client in your jQuery original code?
EDIT
Try this setting the data type of the request using $http or $http.get without forgetting to specify the data property in the settings object.
$http({
url: 'http://localhost:8080/example/teste',
dataType: 'json',
method: 'POST',
data: '',
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json"
}
}).success(function(response){
$scope.response = response;
}).error(function(error){
$scope.error = error;
});
