AngularJS $http Interceptors (Explanation and Examples)
This document discusses AngularJS $http interceptors, which are event functions triggered during HTTP requests made with $http, $resource, and $httpBackend. There are four types of interceptors: request, requestError, response, and responseError. Interceptors are created as service factory functions and added to the $httpProvider interceptors array. They are useful for applying cross-cutting concerns like request configuration, response transformation, error handling, and authentication checks across an application. Interceptors can control their behavior conditionally based on injected services or objects. Examples demonstrate interceptors for request configuration, 400/403/500 error handling, and response processing.

- 2. What are $httpInterceptors • They are event functions triggered during the lifecycle of an HTTP call made via AngularJS. • They will run anytime you execute: – $http – $resource – $httpBackend
- 3. Types of Interceptors •request ( configuration ) – Receives and returns a configuration object that defines the outgoing HTTP call • requestError ( rejection ) – Receives a rejection object when a previous interceptor (like a request interceptor) returns an error or rejection • response ( response ) – Receives and returns a response object from a successful HTTP call • responseError ( rejection ) – Receives a rejection object when a previous response interceptor returns an error or rejection Documentation: https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$http#interceptors

- 6. Uses For Interceptors •Useful anytime you need to apply the same checks/actions on HTTP requests and responses throughout your application (“cross-cutting concerns”) – Configuring the outgoing requests in a certain way – Altering the incoming response for easier consumption – Handling certain response errors – Checking authentication status
- 7. Conditional Interceptor Behavior •Use the properties and functions of an injected object to control or suppress interceptor behavior. – An object in the $rootScope – Or an Angular service
