ng-oboe

An Angular wrapper for Jim Higson's oboe.js, following Angular's $http module conventions. Thanks for Jim for creating such a cool library!

Usage:

To use ng-oboe, add the 'ng-oboe' module as an an app dependency.

angular.module('myApp', ['ng-oboe'])

With ng-oboe as an app dependency, we can now inject oboe into a controller, service, factory, etc. and call oboe methods.

.controller('myCtrl', function ($scope, oboe) {
	$scope.items = [];

	oboe.get('test.json')
		.start(function (data, etc) {
			console.log("Dude! We're goin'!", data, etc);
		})
		.node('items.*', function (value) {
			$scope.items.push(value);
		})
		.done(function (value) {
			console.log("It works! ", value);
		})
		.fail(function (error) {
			console.log("Error: ", error);
		});

This oboe wrapper supports GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, and DELETE, used just like the equivalent methods on the $http object. The oboe wrapper, once called with one of the methods above, will return an object exposing oboe's events (such as .on() and .node()).

NOTE: Due to angular conventions, oboe's .done() and .fail() functions are are also aliased to .success() and .error(), respectively. This (hopefully) should allow ng-oboe to serve as a drop-in replacement to $http without any code changes.

This library isn't ready for primetime yet, but it's usable to a certain extent. Please feel free to check it out!
