angular pass array in get request

Question

I want to pass a query like that to the server:

/rest/articles/getTexts?tagIds[]=1&tagIds[]=88

I can do it with $.param like this:

var tagIds = [1, 88]
var param = $.param({tagIds: tagIds});

I've tried the same with angular:

var tagIds = [1, 88]
$http.get(serverUrl + "articles/getTexts" + {params:{tagIds: tagIds }})

But it produced the string like this:

/rest/articles/getTexts?tagIds=1&tagIds=88

Note the square brackets missing which leads to ovveriding of tagIds parameter on server side instead of making an array of it like in the case with jquery's param. Am I using angular's params in the wrong way or it's not possible to achieve what I want?

But this '/rest/articles/getTexts?tagIds=1&tagIds=88' is standard way to pass array in query string — Petr Averyanov

Have you tried params :{ tagIds: JSON.stringify(tagIds) } ? — scniro

@salniro, this puts as a string instead of an array of values for a param. — Max Koretskyi

@PetrAveryanov, I guess it depends on how server side interprets them in such form. PHP ovverrides. — Max Koretskyi

Not tested, but if you want the param name to be tagIds[], then that's also what the key of the params object should be:

params:{'tagIds[]': tagIds }
