How to create complex query parameters in Restangular

Question

I need to create a fairly complex query string in Restangular.

http://vdmta.rd.mycompany.net//people?anr=Smith&attrs=givenName,displayName,name,cn

How do I do this?

So far I am OK getting as far as ?anr=Smith using this:

return Restangular.all('/people').getList({anr:searchTerm});

The last part attrs=x,y,x lets me control which attributes I want back in the search and could change per request I make.

Any advice appreciated.

Regards

You should be able to simply add another query parameter where the value is your comma separated list of attributes.

var attributes = ['givenName' , 'displayName']; // attributes you require for the request
var attributesAsString = attributes.join();

return Restangular.all('/people').getList({
    anr : searchTerm,
    attrs: attributesAsString
});

Thanks. Is attributes an array here? Or do I have to build the comma separated list and pass it in as a string?

You could easily provide an array and convert it into a comma separated string (it looks like a comma separated string is what you need, right?). Updated the answer to show. Simply using join().
