Expected response to contain an object but got an array error in angular js

Question

Hi i have tried creating a simple sign in service, but ended up with this error.

My service

foodModule.factory('Login', function($resource){
    return $resource('http://localhost:1337/User/', {}, {

    });
});

my fucntion

$scope.signIn=function(){
    console.log('Sign in function works');
    console.log($scope.user.signemail);
    console.log($scope.user.signpassword);
    $scope.signuser=Login.get({email:$scope.user.signemail,password:$scope.user.signpassword});
    console.log($scope.signuser);
}

Error:

Error: [$resource:badcfg] http://errors.angularjs.org/1.3.15/$resource/badcfg?p0=get&p1=object&p2=array

Am i doing anything wrong here? I hope i should mention the method properly, any idea on this error??

The link in error explains everything: errors.angularjs.org/1.3.15/$resource/… — dfsq

resource get should return a single object, but in your case, an array is being returned.

The problem could be that you are trying to do login using GET. Normally login is achieved using http POST. Most probably you should use Login.post instead of Login.get

See the browser console what url is being hit. Is it the login url? Are the parameters passed correctly? If it is a post the data goes in body.

The parameters of $resources are as resource(url, paramDefaults, actions).

In first you already have url and blank paramDefaults are acceptable but in last parameters you need to specify explictly isArray: false .

So action can be like:-

'query': {method: 'GET', isArray: false }

Hope it helps :)

Make sure your $resource configuration matches the actual format of the data returned from the server.
