AngularJS HTTP post to PHP and undefined

Question

I have a form with the tag ng-submit  login    The function gets called fine in javascript   function LoginForm  scope   http         http defaults headers post  Content-Type      application x-www-form-urlencoded  charset UTF-8         scope email       fsdg sdf com        scope password    1234         scope login   function                 data                  email     scope email               password     scope password                      http post  resources curl php   data           success function data  status  headers  config                        console log status     -     data                       error function data  status  headers  config                        console log  error                          I am getting a 200 OK response back from the PHP file  however  the returned data is saying that email and password are undefined  This is all the php I have   lt  php  email     POST  email     pass      POST  password    echo  email    gt    Any idea why I am getting undefined POST values   EDIT  I wanted to point out since this seems to be a popular question  yet it is old    success and  error have been deprecated and you should use  then as  James Gentes pointed out in the commments

Angular Js Demo Code  -   angular module  ModuleName      controller  main      http   function  http                    var formData     password   test pwd   email    test email                     var postData    myData   JSON stringify formData                    http                           method    POST                           url    resources curl php                           data  postData                          headers     Content-Type    application x-www-form-urlencoded                         success function res                           console log res                      error function error                           console log error                               Server Side Code  -   lt  php      it will print whole json string  which you access after json decocde in php  myData   json decode   POST  myData     print r  myData      gt    Due to angular behaviour there is no direct method for normal post behaviour at PHP server  so you have to manage it in json objects

You need to deserialize your form data before passing it as the second parameter to  post     You can achieve this using jQuery s    param  data  method  Then you will be able to on server side to reference it like   POST   email

It s an old question but it worth to mention that in Angular 1 4  httpParamSerializer is added and when using  http post  if we use  httpParamSerializer params  to pass the parameters  everything works like a regular post request and no JSON deserializing is needed on server side   https   docs angularjs org api ng service  httpParamSerializer

angularjs  post   defaults the Content-type header to application json  You are overriding this to pass form-encoded data  however you are not changing your data value to pass an appropriate query string  so PHP is not populating   POST as you expect   My suggestion would be to just use the default angularjs setting of application json as header  read the raw input in PHP  and then deserialize the JSON   That can be achieved in PHP like this    postdata   file get contents  php   input     request   json decode  postdata    email    request- gt email   pass    request- gt password    Alternately  if you are heavily relying on   POST functionality  you can form a query string like email someemail email com amp password somepassword and send that as data  Make sure that this query string is URL encoded  If manually built  as opposed to using something like jQuery serialize     Javascript s encodeURIComponent   should do the trick for you

In the API I am developing I have a base controller and inside its   construct   method I have the following   if isset   SERVER  CONTENT TYPE     amp  amp  strpos   SERVER  CONTENT TYPE     application json       false          POST   array merge   POST   array  json decode trim file get contents  php   input     true        This allows me to simply reference the json data as   POST  var   when needed  Works great    That way if an authenticated user connects with a library such a jQuery that sends post data with a default of Content-Type  application x-www-form-urlencoded or Content-Type  application json the API will respond without error and will make the API a little more developer friendly   Hope this helps

It took me hours to understand that while working with Angular and PHP  Post data was not going to PHP in   POST  in PHP code do the following   - Create a variable  angular post params - Then do the following   angular http params    array json decode trim file get contents  php   input       now you can access your parameters like you do from   POST   angular http params  key    in case you were wondering about javascript    this is what i used      var myApp   angular module  appUsers              var post params     param   request type   getListOfUsersWithRolesInfo          var dataObj             task to perform   getListOfUsersWithRolesInfo              myApp controller  ctrlListOfUsers   function   scope   http             http               method   POST               dataType   json               url  ajax processor url              headers                     Content-Type    application json                             data  dataObj                transformRequest  function                  timeout  30000              cache  false                     success function  rsp                console log  success                console log rsp                       error function  rsp                console log  error

This is the best solution  IMO  as it requires no jQuery and no JSON decode    Source  https   wordpress stackexchange com a 179373 and  https   stackoverflow com a 1714899 196507  Summary     Replacement of jQuery param var serialize   function obj  prefix      var str         for var p in obj        if  obj hasOwnProperty p           var k   prefix   prefix         p         p  v   obj p         str push typeof v     object            serialize v  k            encodeURIComponent k          encodeURIComponent v                return str join   amp           Your AngularJS application  var app   angular module  foo         app config function   httpProvider           send all requests payload as query string      httpProvider defaults transformRequest   function data           if  data     undefined                return data                    return serialize data                  set all post requests content type      httpProvider defaults headers post  Content-Type      application x-www-form-urlencoded  charset UTF-8         Example          var data     id   some id   name    some name         http post my php url data  success function data              It works        error function                            PHP code    lt  php      id     POST  id      gt

Because PHP does not natively accept JSON  application json  One approach is to update your headers and parameters from angular so that your api can use the data directly    First  Parameterize your data   data    param    foo    scope fooValue      Then  add the following to your  http   headers          Content-Type     application x-www-form-urlencoded  charset UTF-8         If all of your requests are going to PHP the parameters can be set globaly in the configuration as follows   myApp config function  httpProvider         httpProvider defaults headers post  Content-Type      application x-www-form-urlencoded  charset UTF-8
