A starting point for an $http-backed RESTful model in AngularJS.

UserService.js

.factory( 'UserService', [ '$http', function ( $http ) {
  var url = '/api/users';
  
  /**
   * This is the private API.
   */
   
  // get a list of users
  function query () {
    return $http.get( url );
  }
   
  // get a user by id
  function get ( id ) {
    return $http.get( url+'/'+id, { params: { id: id } });
  }
  
  // remove a user
  function remove ( id ) {
    return $http.delete( url+'/'+id );
  }
  
  // create a user
  function create ( user ) {
    return $http.post( url, user );
  }
  
  // update a user
  function save ( user ) {
    return $http.put( url+'/'+user.id, user );
  }
  
  /**
   * This is the public API.
   */
  return {
    get: get
    query: query,
    remove: remove,
    save: save,
    create: create
  }
}])
