I swear this was working earlier, took a break, and now its not working all of a sudden...
I'm building an AngularJS app that connects to a custom public REST api I've created with Salesforce. I've tested the REST api via curl and apigee.com and the data is being returned properly. The problem occurs when I attempt to call the same endpoint via Angulars $http.jsonp() method (which is essentially the equivalent of $.getJSON() in jQuery). When I attempt to do this the request is canceled, according to Chromes Network monitor.
I've posted this in the Salesforce board because I seem to only have this problem with apex rest api's i create with Salesforce. Are there perhaps special headers I need to send with my request? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Angular Factory:
angular.module('SalesforceService', [], function($provide){
$provide.factory('$salesforce', function($http, $q){
return {
login: function(email, password){
var endpoint = 'https://merchant.dev1.cs15.force.com/freelance/services/apexrest/FreelanceService?name=Jonathan&callback=JSON_CALLBACK';
var deferred = $q.defer();
console.log('...calling salesforce...');
$http.jsonp(endpoint)
.success(function(data){
console.log('--SALESFORCE RESPONSE:');
console.log(data);
deferred.resolve(data);
}).error(function(data, status, headers, config){
console.log('---SALESFORCE ERROR:');
console.log(data);
console.log(status);
console.log(headers());
console.log(config);
deferred.reject('An error occurred when attempting to login.');
});
return deferred.promise;
}
};
});
})
I then call this service in one of my controllers via $salesforce.login()...
Custom Salesforce REST Class:
@RestResource(urlMapping='/FreelanceService')
global class FreelanceService
{
global class TestObject{
public String message;
public TestObject(String message){
this.message = message;
}
}
@HttpGet
global static void goGet()
{
String name = RestContext.request.params.get('name');
TestObject o = new TestObject('Hello ' + name);
RestContext.response.addHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json');
RestContext.response.responseBody = formatResponse(o);
}
public static blob formatResponse(TestObject obj)
{
//instantiate string to be returned
String response;
//get callback parameter from url
String callback = RestContext.request.params.get('callback');
//return JSON wrapped in function if a callback parameter exists
if(callback!=null)
{
response = callback + '('+JSON.serialize(obj)+')';
}
else
{
response = JSON.serialize(obj);
}
return blob.valueOf(response);
}
}
