Angularjs RESTul Resource Request

Question

I am trying to make the request

....port/trimService/fragments/?fragment_name=:fragmentName

However if I try to make the "?fragment_name" a parameter, it breaks. As I am going to have more requests, my action with change so I cannot leave it in the url portion of the resource.

angular.module(foo).factory('FragmentService', ['$resource',
function ($resource)
{
    var FragmentService = $resource('.../fragments/:action:fragmentName',
    {},
    {
        'getFragments':
        {
            method: 'GET',
            isArray: true,
            params:
            {
                fragmentName: "@fragmentName",
                action: "?fragment_name="
            }
        }

    });
    return FragmentService;
}
]);

As of right now, I have no idea what my URL is actually outputting.

EDIT: I changed my resource as /u/akonsu had mentioned below. I also added my controller as it is still not working correctly.

angular.module(foo).factory('FragmentService', ['$resource',
function ($resource)
{
    var FragmentService = $resource('.../fragments/',
    {},
    {
        'getFragments':
        {
            method: 'GET',
            isArray: true,
            params:
            {
                fragmentName: "@fragmentName",
            }
        }

    });
    return FragmentService;
}
]);


angular.module(foo).controller('FragmentController', ['$scope', 'FragmentService',
function ($scope, FragmentService)
{
    $scope.fragmentQuery = {
        fragmentName: 'a',
    };


    $scope.fragmentQuery.execute = function ()
    {
        if ($scope.fragmentQuery.fragmentName == '')
        {
            $scope.fragments = {};
        }
        else
        {
            $scope.fragments = FragmentService.getFragments(
            {
                fragmentName: $scope.fragmentQuery.fragmentName,
            });
        }
    };
    $scope.fragmentQuery.execute();

}

]);

what is the URL that it sends a request to now? could you see it in the network tab in the browser? — akonsu

Yes, I was finally able to see the call, I hadn't been able to, this led me to be able to make the proper changes to my controller. Thank you! — Larsbars

Try omitting the query string altogether in the resource URL and just supply your fragmentName as a parameter to the action call. It should add it to the query string if it is not in the list of URL parameters.

$resource(".../port/trimService/fragments/").get({fragmentName: 'blah'})

The problem seems to lie in the ? mark in the action, I cannot find any work around for this, I'd really like to keep the query string as I am going to have multiple requests later.

you can use your query string, as I said, if your params are not found in the URL pattern then angular adds them to the query string.
