AngularJS - Unknown provider configuring $httpProvider - http

Question

In the following code example:
myApp.config(['$httpProvider', function($httpProvider, $cookieStore) {
$httpProvider.defaults.withCredentials = true;
$httpProvider.defaults.headers.get['Authorization'] = 'Basic '+ $cookieStore.get('myToken');
return JSON.stringify(data);
}]);
I get an angularjs error like 'Unknown provider $cookieStore'.
'myApp' has dependenciy and 'ngCookies' and angular-cookies.min.js is laoded, so what's wrong with that code ?
Is that fact that i'm doing this in .config ?

Answer 1

Because it's only possible to pass providers when configuring, i have finally done the overwrite of my http parameter not with a request transformer but by creating a service as factory to do requests.
Here is a code example of the service (not tested, just for information):
angular.module('myapp-http-request', []);
angular.module('myapp-http-request')
.factory('MyRequests', function($http, $cookieStore){
return {
request: function(method, url, data, okCallback, koCallback){
$http({
method: method,
url: url,
data: data
}).success(okCallback).error(koCallback);
},
authentifiedRequest: function(method, url, data, okCallback, koCallback){
$http({
method: method,
url: url,
data: data,
headers: {'Authorization': $cookieStore.get('token')}
}).success(okCallback).error(koCallback);
}
}
});
And example of usage (not tested, just for information):
angular.module('sharewebapp', ['myapp-http-request'])
.controller('MyController', ['MyRequests', function(MyRequests){
MyRequests.authentifiedRequest('DELETE', '/logout', '', function(){alert('logged-out');}, function(){alert('error');})
}]);

You probably need to add the cookieStore
myApp.config(['$httpProvider', '$cookieStore', function($httpProvider, $cookieStore)

I had ran into this same problem so i'll post how I got around it. I essentially used the $injector module to manual grab an instance of the service I needed. Note this also works for user defined services.
angular.module('app').
config(config);
config.$inject = ['$httpProvider'];
function config($httpProvider) {
//Inject using the $injector
$httpProvider.interceptors.push(['$injector', function($injector){
return {
request: function(config) {
//Get access by injecting an instance of the desired module/service
let $cookieStore = $injector.get('$cookieStore');
let token = $cookieStore.get('your-cookie-name');
if (token) {
config.headers['x-access-token'] = token;
}
return config;
}
}
}])
}

Using the Module.run() seems to be a cleaner way to set headers that are always needed. See my answer here: AngularJS pass requestVerificationToken to a service
