Angular $resource does not parse correctly an integer response

Question

I am using the Angular $resource to make requests to my controllers, implemented on a Spring application. When the controller returns just an Integer value, $resource parse

Answer 1

Maybe try setting the responseType in the action config, like this:

$resource(url, {}, {
    get: {
        method: 'GET',
        responseType: 'text'
    }
});

If that doesn't work you probably need to use transformResponse or an $http interceptor to modify the response before the resource gets a hold of it. See $http docs.
