AngularJS intercept all $http requests

Question

I can\'t seem to get the $httpProvider.interceptors to actually intercept. I created a sample on JSFiddle that logs when the interceptor is run and when the $http response i

If you want the option to accept/reject a request at interception time you should be using $httpProvider.responseInterceptors, see example below:

$httpProvider.responseInterceptors.push(function($q) {
    return function(promise){
        var deferred = $q.defer();
        promise.then(
            function(response){ deferred.reject("I suddenly decided I didn't like that response"); },
            function(error){ deferred.reject(error); }
        );
        return deferred.promise;
    };
});

EDIT Didn't read your comment, indeed responseInterceptors is now obsolete an that's how you do it instead:

$httpProvider.interceptors.push(function($q) {
    return {
        request: function(config){ return config; },
        response: function(response) { return $q.reject(response); }
    };
});

I learned something useful, thanks
