How to read response headers in angularjs?
Solution 1
Use the headers
variable in success and error callbacks
$http.get('/someUrl').
success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
// this callback will be called asynchronously
// when the response is available
})
.error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
// called asynchronously if an error occurs
// or server returns response with an error status.
});
If you are on the same domain, you should be able to retrieve the response headers back. If cross-domain, you will need to add Access-Control-Expose-Headers
header on the server.
Access-Control-Expose-Headers: content-type, cache, ...
Solution 2
Why not simply try this:
var promise = $http.get(url, {
params: query
}).then(function(response) {
console.log('Content-Range: ' + response.headers('Content-Range'));
return response.data;
});
Especially if you want to return the promise
so it could be a part of a promises chain.
Solution 3
Updated based on Muhammad's answer...
$http.get('/someUrl').
success(function(data, status, headers, config) {
// this callback will be called asynchronously
// when the response is available
console.log(headers()['Content-Range']);
})
.error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
// called asynchronously if an error occurs
// or server returns response with an error status.
});

Additionally to Eugene Retunsky's answer, quoting from $http documentation regarding the response:
The response object has these properties:
data –
{string|Object}
– The response body transformed with the transform functions.status –
{number}
– HTTP status code of the response.headers –
{function([headerName])}
– Header getter function.config –
{Object}
– The configuration object that was used to generate the request.statusText –
{string}
– HTTP status text of the response.
Please note that the argument callback order for $resource (v1.6) is not the same as above:
Success callback is called with
(value (Object|Array), responseHeaders (Function), status (number), statusText (string))
arguments, where the value is the populated resource instance or collection object. The error callback is called with(httpResponse)
argument.
Solution 5
response.headers();
will give you all the headers (defaulat & customs). worked for me !!
Note . I tested on the same domain only. We may need to add Access-Control-Expose-Headers
header on the server for cross domain.

My server returns this kind of header:
Content-Range:0-10/0
:I tried to read this header in angular with no luck:
var promise = $http.get(url, { params: query }).then(function(response) { console.log(response.headers()); return response.data; });
which just prints
Object {content-type: "application/json; charset=utf-8"}
Any ideas how to access the content range header?
