$success call back function from AngularJS

Question

I am calling the controller to get the API value. How do I pass the array outside of the $http method?

I need to pass an array, pa[], to the $scope

If you prefer jQuery Ajax, use the extend function to return the success data outside,

$(function(){
    $.extend({
        returnData: function(url) {
            var result = null;
            var pa = [];
            $.ajax({
                url: url,
                type: 'get',
                dataType: 'jsonp',
                async: false,
                success: function(data) {
                    for (i = 0; i < data.feed.entry.length; i++) {
                        var entry = data.feed.entry[i];
                        pa.push(entry.gsx$productivity.$t);
                    }
                    result = pa;
                }
            });
            return result;
        }
    });
});
finaldata = $.returnData('https://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds/list/0AsXjbsnPIu06dGswZUV4WX/values?alt=json-in-script&callback=angular.callbacks._0');
console.log(finaldata);
