AngularJs: Have method return synchronously when it calls $http or $resource internally

Question

Is there a way to wait on a promise so that you can get the actual result from it and return that instead of returning the promise itself? I\'m thinking of something simila

Answer 1

My approach was create a function with OLD javascript objects as follows:

var globalRequestSync = function (pUrl, pVerbo, pCallBack) {

        httpRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
        httpRequest.onreadystatechange = function () {

            if (httpRequest.readyState == 4 && httpRequest.status == 200) {
                pCallBack(httpRequest.responseText);
            }
        }
        httpRequest.open(pVerbo, pUrl, false);
        httpRequest.send(null);

    };
