Angular module that simplifies the use of Sharepoint 2013 REST Service Calls
#Usage
Include the SPServicesREST.js file above your app file in script tag
Include SPServiceREST as a dependancy in your app module
##Example:
var myapp=angular.module("myApp",["SPServicesREST"])
Then reference the service in your controller
Currently 3 services are available
- SPRESTItemServices
- SPRESTListServices
- SPRESTUserServices
myapp.controller('myController',[
'$scope',
'SPRESTItemServices',
'SPRESTListServices',
'SPRESTUserServices',
function($scope,$SPRESTItemServices,$SPRESTListServices,$SPRESTUserServices){}])
##Working Examples
##SPRESTItemServices --
Each Service Above has a set of functions
myapp.controller('myController',[
'$scope',
'SPRESTItemServices',
function($scope,$SPRESTItemServices){
$scope.retrieveListItems_oData=SPRESTItemServices.getItems({
siteURL:'http://mysharepoint.com/sites/mysite', //required string
listName:'myList', //required list name string
filters:{
orderby:'Title Asc',
select:['Title','Id'],
top:3
}
}).then(function(response){console.log(response)})
}])
The request above calls the Sharepoint REST API creating this URL string -- http://mysharepoint.com/sites/mysite/_api/web/lists/GetByTitle(‘myList’)/Items?$orderby=Title Asc&$select=Title,Id&$top=3
A CAML Filter approach is also available please see below
myapp.controller('myController',[
'$scope',
'SPRESTItemServices',
function($scope,$SPRESTItemServices){
$scope.retrieveListItems_caml=SPRESTItemServices.getItems({
siteURL:'http://mysharepoint.com/sites/mysite', //required string
listName:'myList', //required list name string
caml:"<View><Query><OrderBy><FieldRef Name='Title' Ascending='TRUE'/></OrderBy><Rowlimit>3</Rowlimit></Query><ViewFields><FieldRef Name='Id'/><FieldRef Name='Title'/></ViewFields></View>"
}).then(function(response){console.log(response)})
}])
This will return the same results as the original example but it does not use OData. The Caml operater can be useful when working with null values date fields. The service does not append the CAML to the url query string but instead passes the request in the header....
No need to worry about URL Query string length here!
This function is used to grab the current context info of the site. In sharepoint 2013 add-ins(apps). The developer will not always have the ability to grab the requestDigest or the formDigestValue from a .NET control. Especially in an App Part. This method will allow the developer to grab the value from the site context. Returns the site Context Object
myapp.controller('myController',[
'$scope',
'SPRESTItemServices',
function($scope,$SPRESTItemServices){
$scope.retrieveSiteContext=SPRESTItemServices.getContextInfo('http://mysites.com/sites/mysitecollection')
.then(function(response){
console.log(response)
console.log(response.d.GetContextWebInformation.FormDigestValue)
})
}])
The function calls the REST API http://mysites.com/sites/mysitecollection/_api/contextinfo
To Be Written
##SPRESTListServices --
Example:
myapp.controller('myController',[
'$scope',
'SPRESTListServices',
function($scope,$SPRESTListServices){
$scope.retrieveListObj=SPRESTItemServices.getList({
siteUrl:'http://mySite.com/sites/mysitecollection', //required string
listName:'myList' //required string
})
.then(function(response){
console.log(response)
})
}])
Example:
myapp.controller('myController',[
'$scope',
'SPRESTListServices',
function($scope,$SPRESTListServices){
$scope.getFieldObj=SPRESTItemServices.getField({
siteUrl:'http://mySite.com/sites/mysitecollection', //required string
listName:'myList' //required string
GUID:'{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}' //required guid
})
.then(function(response){
console.log(response)
})
}])
Example:
myapp.controller('myController',[
'$scope',
'SPRESTListServices',
function($scope,$SPRESTListServices){
$scope.getFieldObj=SPRESTItemServices.getFields({
siteUrl:'http://mySite.com/sites/mysitecollection', //required string
listName:'myList' //required string
})
.then(function(response){
console.log(response)
})
}])
##SPRESTUserServices --
Example:
myapp.controller('myController',[
'$scope',
'SPRESTUserServices',
function($scope,$SPRESTUserServices){
$scope.getFieldObj=SPRESTItemServices.getCurrentUser({
siteUrl:'http://mySite.com/sites/mysitecollection', //required string
})
.then(function(response){
console.log(response)
})
}])
