How to "pass variable from $http success to another $http request" in Angularjs?

I can't access the output variable from my 1st http get request, i need this data for another http Post request.

None.

$scope.submit = function(x) {

  $http({
    method: "GET",
    url: url + 'getOSchild',
    params: { ncard: x }
  }).then(function success(response) {
    $scope.osChild = response.data;
    console.log($scope.osChild) // this has an output
  }, function error(response, status) {
    console.log(response)
    console.log(status)
  });


  $http({
    method: "POST",
    url: url + 'printOS',
    data: JSON.stringify({
      CARD_NAME: data_cname,
      C_DATE: data_date,
      C_NUMATCARD: data_ncard,
      C_DISTMEANS: data_means,
      C_TIME: data_time,
      cData: $scope.osChild //this is null
    }),
    header: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
  }).then(function success(response) {
    console.log(response)
  }, function error(response, status) {});

}

I need the $scope.osChild to be present in my http post request.

Solution

  • Simply chain the two XHRs:

    function getOSChild (x) {
    return $http({
        method: "GET",
        url: url+'getOSchild',
        params: {ncard: x}
    }).then(function success(response) {
        $scope.osChild = response.data;
        console.log($scope.osChild); // this has an output
        return response.data;
     },function error(response) {
        console.log(response)
        console.log(response.status);
        throw response;
    });
}

$scope.submit = function(x) {  
    getOSChild(x).then(function(osChild) {
        $http({
            method: "POST",
            url: url+'printOS',
            data:{ CARD_NAME: data_cname, 
                      C_DATE: data_date,
                 C_NUMATCARD: data_ncard, 
                 C_DISTMEANS: data_means,
                      C_TIME: data_time, 
                       cData: osChild //chained

            }
        }).then(function success(response) {
              console.log(response)
        });
    });
};

    The .then method returns a new promise which is resolved or rejected via the return value of the successCallback, errorCallback (unless that value is a promise, in which case it is resolved with the value which is resolved in that promise using promise chaining.
