One dimensional array of strings being parsed to 2d by angular resource

Question

The following JSON response from the server

[
    \"hello\",
    \"world\"
]

is being parsed into a 2d array by this ngResource service

Answer 1

I have been struggling with this as well. Here is my solution by adjusting the service slighly by using query

var app = angular.module('testApp', ['ngResource']);

app.factory('Name', function($resource, $sce) {
  var path = "test.json";

  return $resource(path, {}, {
    query: {
      method: 'GET',
      isArray: false
    }
  })
});

app.controller('testController', function($scope, Name) {
  $scope.result;

  $scope.getResult = function() {
    Name.query(function(data) {
      $scope.result = data;
    });
  };

  $scope.getResult();
});

HTML:

  
  
  

  



  
{{result.surname}}

and the JSON file:

{
    "name": "Homer",
    "surname":  "Simpson",
    "Town": "Springfield"
}
