Base URL in AngularJS

Question

While dveloping my AngularJS app on my local WAMP server it resides in:

http://localhost/Projects/myLaravelProject/public/

When calling routes as

$http.post("/login", sanitizeCredentials(credentials));

It is trying to access

http://localhost/login

and obviously getting a 404 error, i have no idea how to overcome this. Im using Hashbang mode not HTML5 mode

I guess this is relevant when you define links and routes with routeprovider. wouldn't it be alright (but noisy...) to have a service with a constant that is just your base url? or just configure properly your server so that the root is the root and not "Projects". and a quick check: try '#/login' — Eduard Gamonal

Why don't your create a virtual host? so your url will be yourapp.dev and angular will make request to yourapp.dev/login which is correct.

Or else if you are using Laravel4, use PHP Development Server

php artisan serve

that's what I do always.
