I am trying to develop a simple application using angularjs and spring mvc restful web service. At first, I have to load the index file where it makes an http call http://localhost:8088/angular/demo to get some json data from the server. But I get a 406 not acceptable error for this.
The first method in the controller, I have written to load the main page and the second method should respond with user information as JSON.
Is it wrong to have a method returning modelAndView and another returning data in the same controller? If I use only methods serving JSON data in the controller, then how should I load the first page? I have included all the required libraries in the lib folder.
In index.jsp i have:
$scope.displayUsers=function(){
$http({
method : 'GET',
url : urlBase+'/demo'
}).success(function(response) {
var response = JSON.parse(response)
alert(response);
console.log(response);
});
}
//---call the display users method
$scope.displayUsers();
The controller is :
@RestController
public class Controller {
@RequestMapping("/")
public ModelAndView helloWorld()
{
ModelAndView model=new ModelAndView("index");
model.addObject("msg", "Hello World");
return model;
}
@RequestMapping(value="/demo", method = RequestMethod.GET)
public @ResponseBody List<Data> getAllTasks() {
List<Data> tasks=new ArrayList<Data>() ;
Data data=new Data();
data.setName("Abc");
data.setEmail("abc@xyz.com");
tasks.add(data);
return tasks;
}
}
The resource representation class is:
public class Data {
String name;
String email;
public String getName() {
return name;
}
public void setName(String name) {
this.name = name;
}
public String getEmail() {
return email;
}
public void setEmail(String email) {
this.email = email;
}
}
