Angular HttpClient Get method with body

Question

I\'m improving an existing API, and the requirement is to provide a single get method which can accept multiple search criteria and based on those criteria perform the query

Answer 1

In the service method, you can have your method like below which takes the optional parameters for the search query. And you can send your search parameter over Observe as below.

getAllSubscribers(
    page?,
    itemsPerPage?,
    userParams?
  ): Observable> {
    const paginatedResult: PaginatedResultSubscribers[]> = new PaginatedResult<
      Subscribers[]
    >();

    let params = new HttpParams();

    if (page != null && itemsPerPage != null) {
      params = params.append("pageNumber", page);
      params = params.append("pageSize", itemsPerPage);
    }

    if (userParams != null) {
      params = params.append("minAge", userParams.minAge);
      params = params.append("maxAge", userParams.maxAge);
        }

       return this.http
      .get(this.baseUrl + "/subscribers", { observe: "response", params })
      .pipe(
        map(response => {
          paginatedResult.result = response.body;
          if (response.headers.get("Pagination") != null) {
            paginatedResult.pagination = JSON.parse(
              response.headers.get("Pagination")
            );
          }
          return paginatedResult;
        })
      );
  }

The basic idea is the use of HttpParams.
