Comparative analysis of the difference between $http.post and jQuery.post in AngularJS_AngularJS

Many times we need to use ajax to submit post data. Angularjs is similar to jq and also has encapsulated posts.

But jQuery’s post is obviously simpler and more user-friendly than angularjs’s.

AngularJS:

Copy code The code is as follows:

$http.post('do-submit.php',myData)
.success(function(){
// some code
});

jQuery:

Copy code The code is as follows:

$.post('do-submit.php', myData, function() {
// some code
});

Looks like there’s no difference, right? However, the data submitted using $http of angularjs cannot be obtained through $_REQUEST/$_POST on the PHP server. Instead, you need to use:

Copy code The code is as follows:

$params = json_decode(file_get_contents('php://input'),true);

to get it. What's the reason?

This is because the two posts handle headers differently... jQuery will serialize myData as a JSON object, for example:

Copy code The code is as follows:

var myData = { a : 1, b : 2 };
// jQuery will convert myData into a string before posting the data: "a=1&b=2"

And Angular doesn’t.

What’s the solution?

1. Introduce jquery, provided that the target users don’t mind loading an extra tens of K scripts. (Not recommended)

2. Get parameters on the server side (PHP) through $params = json_decode(file_get_contents('php://input'),true);. Small projects can do this, but large projects need to be changed one by one. (Not recommended)

3. Modify the default processing of Angular's $httpProvider: http://victorblog.com/2012/12/20/make-angularjs-http-service-behave-like-jquery-ajax/ (In order to facilitate future management, this is the best way)
